Alrighty alrighty. Let's get this going, yeah? Thanks for the reminder Verms :) If you'd like to join, just say so. You'll need 35 games per month, so right now you need 105 games to join.
I only combine accounts in special circumstances (e.g. when montecarlo was un-cursed and monte switched back to that account from the full monte).

The TAZD* is a (very) modified Pearson's chi-square. Basically, your percentage profile is compared to the zero datum (shown below). If you've got a better-than-expected first, second, or third place percentage, you gain little TAZD* points. If you have more than expected fourth through seventh, you lose little TAZD* points. The farther you are from expected (in the right direction), the better. All the little TAZD* for each place are added together, then multiplied by the square root of the total number of games you've played, capped at 200 per month (so right now the max games multiplier is 600). I know this is somewhat complicated so if you have any questions, let me know!

Zero Datum:
07.2 07.9 10.2 14.0 17.5 20.3 22.9

I'm thinking about modifying the ASR to make the multiplier more important and table points less important. Perhaps using the square root of the number of table points or doubling the multiplier (to increase the disparity between a good multiplier and a bad one)? Let me know if you think this is a good idea. Yes, the ASR is an arbitrary statistic that has been created for the game. But isn't that all statistics really is? Manipulation of numerical data.

As it stands, the formula for the ASR is as follows:

(4*1st place % + 3* 2nd + 2*3rd + 4th - 6th - 2*7th)(table points)+games/25

(also capped at 200 games/month)
Again, let me know if you have questions or have feedback about modifying the ASR! You can post here or email me at [email protected] :)
