rough rankings.... behind a 0-4 team, and a team that I beat.... no way Lake Charles will be in relegation zone come season end... but i think you ratings system may be a bit flawed

i do like the rankings still though.... unique to see this level of analysis

ozark - sorry for hurting your other best player.... its gonna be a rough 2 weeks for you with both your top guys out, which was basically your whole two man team to begin with.

Yea, I'm sure it's flawed a little, and especially in your case.

Lake Charles, despite his 0-4 start, is probably just about right on the rankings. So I'm chalking that one up to BB game engine issues. I'll put you in the same camp, only the exact opposite haha.

Well. Based on the fact that everyone hates my rankings system, I've adjusted it. Ha!

It weights the average rating, the teams record, and average point differential. I think you'll all like it. It makes a little more sense.

Coming Monday...

As promised, here is the new version of my power rankings. If you want the actual formula, let me know. Otherwise suffice it to say that it weights the team's average rating versus the average league rating, the team's record versus a baseline of a .500 record, and the team's point differential versus a zero point differential.

I think you'll notice it reflecting a better representation on the best teams, while still probably not being perfect.

Got some changes today. Good win for Extra Crispy. Probably didn't need to normal, but I shouldn't have started my trainees against you. Well done. Big win for Updog over Eclypze! Good normal there.

In terms of the power rankings, two teams are seperating themselves from the pack...

Good luck in the cup everyone!

I honestly didn't mean to play on higher energy against Eclpze..... I guess I can't complain too much with the win. I was going to rest my starters in the cup game but now I might have to play them a bit to make up for the lower intensity.....

More changes over the holiday weekend. Eclypze and Extra Crispy took some big hits in their ratings this week, as it appears they may have both rested their starters. Extra Crispy taking the brunt of that hit since they lost as well.

I've added a trend to end of each team. All it shows is whether their overall rating went up or down.

lake charles's bad luck continues.... they did finish #1 in our division last year.... i still say they will make a late push for a top 4 spot

Power Rankings updated now after the first two games of Interleague Play. Eclypze falls because of the CT from the Cresleys. It's also becoming evident that lots of teams are resting starters in some of these games as Cup matchups get harder.
