Improve RR Battle management.
The highlighted comment was created in this revision.
Have the server run the main rumble against robots like it does now, with the following addition.
First give option of running a random battles a lower chance (say 20% to 40% area).
After it has gotten the most critical robots stabilized (current behavior).
Find the pairing that has the lowest number of battles run, and run that. If there is a tie, run the robot that has the lowest number of battles. If there is a tie of that, just use the first one that comes up in the query (less server work then random).
That way even old robots with tons of battles are still considered for more battles and it helps overall stabilization.
The optimal criteria for prioritizing battles depends on the ranking system, although aiming for equal number of battles per pairing works well for most systems. Old robots with tons of battles are still considered whenever a new competitor enters the rumble.
Old robots don´t really need more battles on old pairings except with incremental Elo rating system. Incremental Elo works better with random pairings (equal frequency instead of equal quantity).
