I wonder what percentage of Superleague players play all 25 games every month. Maybe 5%?

Should be interesting to see how they adapt to the 5.2 system and where the event value shakes out.

Wow... Just at a glance, it looks like over 80% of the players submitted fewer than 5 scores for the month.

I recall Nate saying on C2C that he was there during Superleague but no one asked him to join. Looks like he's on the August list anyway. I could be mixing it up with another visit he made there though.

Totally agree with you on this, but I think we'll be okay adjusting to reporting after playoffs. I would much prefer to see PAPA finals format over the head to head double elim we've been doing though. That will give a more balanced end to the season and should still give a fairly accurate representation of how you played. Unless of course, you can't make the playoffs.

As far as I know, tiebreakers don't count toward TGP.

Bzzzzzt. Wrong.

Watching match play is awesome and I think that it's been demonstrated that LOTS of people care to watch it both in person and streaming.

That grid is handy!

Question about when a player becomes "rated" and contributes to base value...

Player X has 4 events on his resume.
He plays his 5th event on Thursday.
He plays his 6th event on Sunday.

Results for Sunday go in first, becoming Player X's 5th event listed on his resume.

When results for Thursday go in, does that player contribute to the base value for Thursday even though it was his 5th event?
Or does the system correctly account for the chronology in which the events occurred and add him to Sunday's base value?

It's definitely a stretch to call the Selfie format a "league". Just seems like a monthly pump and dump Herb contest.

I personally don't like the idea of formats where you can play and play and play and eventually get a monster score and none of your other garbage games matter. It's just not a great test of skill. I get that the playoffs force you to perform on the spot, but the seeding leading up to that point is pretty bogus.

Seems great for location earnings though!

Preferential treatment!! It's all a sham!!!

But really, the good side of this is that it's a a pretty casual approach to competition for new players and casuals who don't go to tournaments. I'm sure it will bring some new people into the fold once they feel some glory of a divisional win or getting the top score on a game. It may not be the best test of skill or a perfect competitive system, but it still has some benefits.
