The Race for #1 Supercoach League Glory (and forum bragging rights)

[Keg on legs]

Indeed. *clinks whiskey glass

Round 16 Update



The SupercoachScores team "Best of the Best" retains #1 spot, while a ten-team league "Supercoach Nerds" was the big climber from #7 to #2.

Big Footy 1 remained in fifth spot, and Supercoach Elite 3 climbed from 43rd to 37th.

More than 4,300 points between 1st and 20th spots - that's too much ground for a team outside the Top 20 to make up, barring some insane carnage like we saw at the end of season 2015.

Most definitely.

Is one of you told to spend time in this forum each year with the commoners?

Sorry?

Sorry?

Is there one SCE who is mandated to spend time posting regularly on the main SC board?

Nah, some of us are just masochists.

Cheers mate. Thanks for the answers.

And the forums better off. Its a shame more SCE don't visit.

Not sure why this thread wasnt kept up but I just thought I would post the current standings showing our Bigfooty Div 1 is currently second with a bullet.

 

[The Made Guy]

BIG FOOTY 1 is now ranked #1.

Meanwhile, the SCS leagues appear to be dropping back as they run out of trades.

 

[dlanod]

Obviously have a bias towards SCE winning it but would still love a BF league to keep up the site dominance! Go Div 1!

I didn't realise it was based on avg points instead of total points, explains why SC Nerds are in second place

The reputable competitors use total points.

Its based on TOTAL points i thought

Think it's based on averages per player. Otherwise the 10 player leagues would all be ranked 20k+

Depends on which setting you click on up the top

I thought that too, but it defaults to average points when clicking on Top Leagues link on the site

Arrhhh who ******* knows.

 

[The Made Guy]

It's ranked on averages, pretty clear.

 

[sven_inc]

The official overall league winner is based on total points not the average as I understand it.

That would make a mockery of the current published rankings then?

For example, your league is ranked 67th as per the Sunday update, but "really" it's ranked 63rd because there are a few 10-team leagues ahead of you?

I'm fortunate enough to be in an RDT 18-person league within reach of the #1 spot. There's a small amount of prize money on the line for 1st in RDT and in the rules it mentions that only 18-person teams are eligible.

RDT and SC are basically carbon copies of each other so I'm assuming the rules still apply.

It may not be the same without any cash on the line so they may not have to make a true distinction, but realistically I think we can all agree that the traditional 18-player leagues should be the only ones in contention for the true #1 ranking.

10-person leagues tend to have a natural advantage over the 18s anyway IMO.

 

[dlanod]

FWIW DT, which is obviously run by the same company and actually gives out prizes for overall league, does it by total points. It's too easy to get 10 good players in a small league compared to 18 in a big league.
