Vote Ranking

I gotta say, I love the Vote ranking. Gives you a completely different perspective on the rumble.
Yeah, I really like it as well. I'm thinking of doing away with (A)NPP though, it seems a bit redundant, and it uses tons of memory to calculate.
ANPP is actually the one I love =), but I'm fine with dropping it if you want. I find it pretty meaningful in the GigaRumble.
Hmm. My main concern with it is that it requires me to do a full nxn grid of scores, which is taking up a full GB of RAM on the backend, and causing soft-kills. If I could somehow implement it as an incremental score, which is updated along with APS, I wouldn't mind it so much.
At least with the KNN-PBI I only need sqrt(rumblesize) in memory at once.
Pretty sure you could do it without nxn grid. You could do min/max for each bot just loading one row (n) at a time. Then ANPP vs each bot the same way. Then each bot's avg with another pass one row at a time. Unless even that process requires nxn with the code/data model. I certainly don't see anyway to do it drastically quicker, like on par with APS.
It's still probably the most CPU intensive and least useful of the rankings, so I totally agree it's a good candidate for the axe.
