Player of the week question

Postby Nevah play JJ » Thu May 29, 2008 12:09 am

I realise this has been answered somewhere else, but I have to admit I am still really confused.

I was just looking at the Player of the week ladder and can't figure out how it works.

For example I am looking at Tony Bickles name, (Sorry to use his name in here, but I am sure everyone has already looked at the ladder and his stats).

So anyway...
Tony Bickle

I click on his name and when the games he has played open up, it shows he has played 5 games, not 4 as in the ladder stats.

It shows his points on the ladder as 99.80, but in his stats page it shows as 178.4.

What am I missing here?
Thanks for your help.

He's actually played 6, JJ, with 5 in the points. So I don't know what the leaderboard is on about.

At first I thought the leaderboard was only counting the games Tony had pointed, but taking a closer look I realised he'd played 6, not 5 (with 4 point finishes as I originally thought).

And the leaderboard is decided by your best 3 games - without working it out, I'm assuming his 3 highest point finishes add up to 99.80.

Hi AK,
Thanks for answering :)

Your right, he has played 6, I did miscount... :oops:

But the question remains.
The ladder says 4 games.

I did add up the scores
Game 6 - 33.25
Game 5 - 10.00
Game 4 - 28.00
Game 3 - 28.55
Game 2 - 36.10
Game 1 - 42.50
Total - 178.40

The ladder gives a score of 99.80
I added up the scores of games 3-6 and that gives that score.

SO..
What happened with game 1 and 2 and why do they not count?

Adding up Tony's three current high scores (game 1, 2 and 6) gives you a score of 111.85 - which, right now, is what the leaderboard should be doing. At the end of the week, your best 3 finishes are taken and the player with the highest total points wins. So really, shouldn't the leaderboard be showing Tony's highest score now? I say yes.

Could be an error, being a new part of the website and all. I don't know what's going on :?

Thanks AK.
Still not sure myself, but after looking at all the players, none of it really makes sense at all.

I appreciate you answering.

i don't think its your best 3 point finishes, rather 3 games is the minimum you need to play.

Sorry guys, I will look into it, but some games that have been played this week keep falling into season 2. So I have to manually change them to Season 3.Will get to it shortly.

I think that the LB isn't taking into consideration any of Monday's games. Have sent an email off to Steve and hopefully we will have this fixed tonight.
