MMPO:
When someone, probably Forest, proposed MMPO, I said that it was very
significantly better than PC, so much so that I called it a member of a
new generation of rank-methods.
But, now, I don’t know why I said that. Looking at the requirements for
offensive order-reversal to succeed, with and without defensive
truncation; and looking at truncation-resistance, I can’t find where
MMPO is any better than PC. Just as good, but not better. Of course, if,
as seems to be the case, MMPO is just as good as PC, then MMPO’s more
briefly-worded specification would make it a better public proposal. Do
others agree?
Or was I right before, and is MMPO very significantly better than PC?
Tell me, if you know.
MMPO is certainly one of the best, along with PC, PCA, and MDD. Maybe
the best, due to being more briefly-worded than PC.
What do you think of Venzke's MMPO example?
9999 A > B = C
1 A = C > B
1 B = C > A
9999 B > A = C
and C wins. That seems quite counterintuitive.
