Teams are ranked first by class (judged by a handful of subjective measures based on performance and common opponents over the first 4 games) and then by K Score (a number derived from performance vs class). Ties are settled by order of head-to-head, W-L, then common opponents (and I still ended up with two ties, grr).

This is a homegrown system I developed over the past couple of hours, inspired by the confusion generated by the power rankings thread. We'll see how it holds up as an effective indicator as the season progresses.

Thanks for posting.

I like yours much better than the power rankings... if you'll do these every week, I'll give up doing the power rankings.

Nice thread, please keep up the great work.

Cool, i like any kind of rankings! Thanks

Fixed.

How the ratings will work going forward:

-Winning or losing a competitive game against an opponent of the same class will not result in a class change.
-Losing a competitive game against a higher class team *may* result in a class increase.
-Losing a competitive game against a lower class team will often result in a class decrease.
-Winning against a higher class team has significant impact for both teams.
-The portion of the K-score formula that takes class into account is based on the *previous* week's class rating.

I'll try to keep these updated as close to the completion of games as personal time allows.

edit: Another note, for future seasons, like this one, K-Factor will not start until week 4, as the seeding system requires at least a 3-game sample (but 4 is even better).

good stuff kwikill

Good job kwikill!! How much do I owe you for putting the Kings at #3?

LOL, crack me up daily man I gotta say. I dunno how I feel about having the spotlight on us though. We tend to play better when people forget who we are, haha.

Everyone does. Hence Blutoski's "aw shucks" stuff. You're not escaping me though, none of you. I'm going to make sure you all get plenty of exposure
