hey all,

got a idea for the game.. maybe it is posible for a "player of the game" thing? like in the stats that show who the player in the game is, based on his team-support in that game?

please let me know ;)

love the idea, like POG. Every game we all just make up our plaer of the game. But what if a lot of guys have had great games, like yesterday my rivalry game I had 4 guys who had great games. 1 said it was Coleman, another said it was Forjaz, then one said Johnson, and another said Catandil. Still to this day IDK who was the real POG. So I think it's a great idea.

We can base it off of:

Minutes
Points
Rebounds
Assists
Steals
Turnovers
Blocks
+/- ratio
Rating

I'm kind of skeptical on the +/- ratio cause my backup C in the scrimmage was the POG. And he had a minus ratio, so take that off

Great idea - Basically they could just use the same criteria that they use for end of season MVP, so that at least its consistent through the season.

There's a post from Charles somewhere (I assume Manon will link to it if asked) that talks about how the MVP is selected, and it boils down to there being a "writer" who watches the games at each arena and his vote is based on some criteria - so a side effect of this process is that in theory there is already everything needed for this in place. If this happens while the game is actually ongoing, hopefully they could hook in the determination of the best player based on that writer's vote into the boxscore somewhere, or at worst maybe a separate league news item (since I don't think anything like this is occurring for scrimmages/Cup games as yet).

yup exactly why i suggested it. Use existing criteria, means uses existing code.
The downside would mean that people may be able to predict the winner of the MVP by seasons end. which would take a bit of gloss off of that.
BUT it may mean that some users will maybe try to get their players to win the MVP award and as such, will introduce an extra element of strategy into the game, albeit a minor one.

Plus it would spark many a debate over 'how on earth did my guy who only scored 10 points and 5 rebounds in 24 minutes get the MVP for the game' discsussions... which is always good :)

Cunning linguistics make people smile, moan, grunt ... all sorts of things. ;-)
