Points per round

The stat page is fun, but pretty sparse. It would be nice to have some measure of how good a player someone is. Obviously total points tell some of the story, but in large measure, they just reflect the number of rounds someone played. Guess accuracy isn't very helpful, because someone who spams guesses will have a much lower accuracy than someone who only guesses occasionally, even if they have the same number of correct guesses (which is all that matters).
The average number of points gained per round played would seem to be a reasonable metric of skill which is easy to calculate. KDice has points per game; I don't see why Ryan didn't put in a column for points-per-round in XSketch. A player's points per round *can* be laboriously calculated by hand, of course. Just for fun, I'll post some numbers from the leaderboard here. I'll start with Jansen, because he's #1. 55,046 points/5169 rounds = an average of 10.65 points per round for the month of February (through Feb. 24, 9:00). That's pretty good! |

As I said, this is only a rough measure of skill--there are plenty of things that it doesn't account for, from who is sitting at the table with someone, to lag, to people having fun and not playing every round seriously. Still, it's an interesting stat. Just eyeballing the data, it seems like an average PPR of 7 is pretty good. I found it interesting that the guy with the highest PPR is someone I had never seen at the tables, or even heard of. |

at 10:53 PM, Thursday February 24, 2011 EST Also worth mentioning (note: all of the numbers are off by one, as Amber Dyer seems to have managed to snag both #25 and #26 on the leaderboard):
#29 JamesEnsor: 8,487/1,149 = 7.39 PPR #34 Ritesh A: 6,870/788 = 8.72 PPR #35 @WithTiPh 6806 / 733 = 9.29 PPR #47 GoHuskies: 4,163/603 = 6.9 PPR #57 stupidcheeseboy: 3016/358 = 8.42 PPR #68 CountryRose 2,652/373 = 7.1 PPR #96 Wurlyearly: 1,839/220 = 8.36 #100 Smithy3113: 1,712/176 = 9.727 PPR |

at 11:10 PM, Thursday February 24, 2011 EST It's interesting to see what the top 10 would look like if sorted by points per round (although this would be a horrible way to actually determine the top 10). A lot of familiar names appear at the top, but so do several names that are much lower down on the real leaderboard:
1. _ _ _: 11.87 2. TayBren13: 10.94 3. deleria: 10.51 4. jansen123: 10.166 5. Smithy3113: 9.727 (Is this someone's alias?) 6. @WithTiPh: 9.29 7. Ritesh A: 8.72 8. @peteyfrogboy: 8.56 9. stupidcheeseboy: 8.42 10. Wurlyearly: 8.36 11. sanaaya: 8.13 |
