Ryan, im enjoying clicking into others' stats pages to see what their ppgs are. would it be ok to add ppg to the leaderboard (not a separately-ordered list, but just an extra number next to the top 25's names), or would that make the leaderboard too crowded? i would really enjoy seeing top 25 ppgs all on the same page. (bragging rights, ofc).

Good point jurgen about the TAPL. It measures ANY kind of skill, including negative skill. But some high-point players, like MadHatSam, have a high percentage of seven place finishes because they know how to cut dom losses for low-place finishes. So there is probably more than one kind of skill that can lead to high point scores.

One way to keep deliberate bad play (like "phoenixing" done in the old Elo days) is to put a cap of 25% on seventh place finishes. That would leave enough room for players like MadHatSam to have high TAPL's.

if ppg is added to the stats, perhaps there should be a differentiation between who started with 0 points versus who started with 2500 points each month.

In that case monte my PPG would be -12.7.
