Is Accuracy as precise as CAPS? Would it be possible to calculate the average based on several games

Currently, I believe that only Diamond members can perform a detailed analysis and thus obtain the CAPS evaluation. To get CAPS, the analysis takes about 10 minutes for longer games. When I compare with the Beta version, I can get Accuracy for the same game in about 20 seconds, rather than the 10 minutes for CAPS.

As I was told that Accuracy and CAPS were identical, I wonder if the fact that it takes only 20 seconds in the Beta version could mean that the evaluation is less accurate. I don’t know how long it actually takes to get CAPS. It may also be that the actual time to calculate CAPS is quite fast (20 seconds), but it is much longer because you wanted to limit the access to CAPS to Diamond members who are the only ones who can run a detailed analysis.

Anyway, assuming that Accuracy is as good as CAPS and quick to get, it would not be too much for the system to calculate the Accuracy average based on several games. As we all know, CAPS or Accuracy can be misleading if calculated for one game. But on a larger sample of games, it starts to mean something about the strength of a player.

So, I have two questions:

   1) Is Accuracy as precise as CAPS?

   2) Would it be possible to allow us to get Accuracy based on the last 25 games of a players?

1) Yes and 2) awesome suggestion! Will take note of them

Thanks.

I know it sounds crazy, but the 20 second analysis on our BLAZING fast server is the same as 10 minutes on the old browser-based version!

Ok, I see what you mean Erik. The system is now more efficient, so it only takes 20 seconds to get now what took 10 minutes before. Good news! So, with respect to my question 2, do you think that is achievable?

That's a future project - already being planned

Great! I like the new analysis tool. It's faster, more user-friendly and more useful. I now spend more time analyzing my games when they are finished.
