Tell me...
Go on, you can share Joep's advice with me. I won't tell anybody else!!
Well done on your first place. You must be very pleased. Good work to Global as well. I know a few people have been asking for this sort of thing (me included) and it's great that they listen to their customers. Excellent. It might be a good idea to make a link to the table more prominent and to put a list of the current top 3 or 5 or 10 on the lobby page so we can see as soon as we log in. May generate a bit more interest and excitement.
I must admit I only just came across the league table last night and it makes for interesting reading. They should add a couple of extra columns for average points per game and average win. I also guess it's retrospective so you can 't see the table in "real time" as it were so you have no idea where you are until after the fact. It's definitely going to affect my play at Global as I fancy going for No.1 so I'll have to start playing at a higher rate. Watch out Scorcho (and Mighty Mike for that matter), here I come!!!
Cheers

Further analysis of S&G Weekly “League”
Hi
Yes I have too much time on my hands!
I thought I’d look at the points per game to give a more accurate comparison between the players and Scorcho will be glad to hear he came top on that as well!!! Excellent work.
Here’s the table:
Mod Pos.-- Pos--------- Name------- Pts---------- Games----- Pts/Game
1st---------- 1st----------- Scorcho---- 43----------- 34------------ 1.26
2nd---------- 4th----------- smilindog-- 19----------- 17------------ 1.12
3rd----------- 1st----------- mightymik 43----------- 44------------ 0.98
4th----------- 3rd----------- tgun--------- 40----------- 41------------ 0.98
5th----------- 6th----------- audbarr23- 17----------- 18------------ 0.94
6th----------- 5th----------- ALEE------- 18----------- 20----------- 0.90
7th----------- 19th--------- Deirdre----- 8------------- 10----------- 0.80
8th----------- 19th--------- Rob21------ 8------------- 13----------- 0.62
9th----------- 9th----------- wega-------- 14----------- 23----------- 0.61
10th--------- 7th----------- sweettea-- 16----------- 29----------- 0.55
11th--------- 12th--------- NicNRic--- 11----------- 20----------- 0.55
12th--------- 7th----------- Rando746- 16----------- 32----------- 0.50
13th--------- 17th--------- Sonic------- 9------------- 20------------ 0.45
I only included those players who had played more than 10 games because people who had played fewer than that had an advantage. No particular reason why I chose 10.
Do you think this is a valid analysis? Do you think Global should provide this information.

thanks for the breakdown reachy, I was worried at first when I saw I was tied, I didn't realized they used games played as a tie-breaker. The last two days were a total war between me, Mighty and tgun, some of the most grueling blackjack of my life, I had to win four games in a row yesterday to pull into first.
Weekly Tables
Without taking any credit away from Scorcho’s win.
I have said it on here before that the weekly tables on Global are totally meaningless.
I finished 4th the previous week after playing 10 games against the winners 33 games played (Again not taking any credit away).
Txtourplayer has addressed this issue on another thread and has given the facts and figures relating to amount of games entered and player ability.
However, I do use the tables as a reference to see who has been playing and how they are doing, and it is nice to be at the top.

Not meaningless, just need more data and more playas...
When people start to take more of an interest in the tables (come on Global, promote them!!!) they will become more relevant. More volume required. They will give people information that will help them analyse their play relative to others. As it stands the table is incomplete to my mind hence my post that calculates pts/game. This is the figure that will tell you where you fit in the scheme of things.
I can't remember the figures exactly but by coming 1st Scorcho increased his winnings by about 20-25% for the week. Defintely worth shooting for I think you'd agree!
And if the tables create a bit of healthy competion all the better!
Push the tables I say! Make them prominent! I want to know as soon as I log on who's in the top 5.
