wildly distributed? There is a spread of four games between teams
and it can throw off the rankings. Super sweet croquet image
Trevzor: The reason there are some teams with fewer games
played (which leads to other points totals) is because there are
not enough teams participating to ensure a complete even
distribution between all nightly groups. Some groups have 7 teams
in them, others have 8. The groups with an odd number of teams in
them have a bye because 7 teams can't play every round (who will
play the 7th team?) This leads to some teams having less battles
played in a night. Compile this over the course of 5 nights with
randomly seeded teams, yes it can add up. This is why we
don't use overall point totals, but win ratios for standings. The
system isn't perfect, but short of not allowing teams to play for
the sake of having even groups, it's the best we can do at the
time. Good question, though
