Warrior General Games

For those that have been with The Dead Presidents before, you'll be familiar, but for those that aren't... there are a number of different league ranking methods out there, and I'll start off by stating that I took this posting layout from one of the more common ones... however, this is a completely homegrown spreadsheet and power ranking calculation.

What I did was extract the data straight from the league stat center ( http://goallineblitz.com/game/team_stats.pl?league_id=134&conference_id=0 ) into a spreadsheet and used it to compile each team's yardage and point totals, both for and against. On offense, I calculated the rankings based on who had the best yardage and scoring for each separate category (passing and rushing), as well as the combination of the two, which is depicted in the overall rating. For defense, it was just the opposite; using the least amount of yards and points given up to determine the better ranking.

For the overall ranking, it is the average of all of the different sub-category offensive and defensive rankings (rushing yards for, rushing yards against, rushing TDs for... etc), with an added weighting to the difference between each team's yardage/points for and against (this is used for purposes of tie-breakers, when dealing with averages)... because it is, after all, more impressive to win convincingly by racking up a lot of points/yards and hold your opponents to very few points/yards; as opposed to gaining a lot of points/yards, but giving up a lot of points/yards as well.

Keep in mind these power rankings are based off of one league game played, thus far. They will shift dramatically and reflect a more accurate assessment as each team begins to play common opponents.

Thank you. It's a really cool thing to be in a league with someone that has the ability/desire to compile stuff like this.

Look forward to seeing these rankings change in the next few weeks.

Awesome to see these again, thanks for putting these together man.

Well look who is here!

Glad to be seeing your ranking again too!

Thanks for the update!

Thanks

Thank you we always like reading these...

good job! Odyssey will start tomorrow...

Nice, thanks a lot for this. This is the kind of stuff that makes a league really fun.

Nice rankings. I hope to see the Swarm work there way up the rankings as the season progresses.

Well, at least Prague is starting with a tougher schedule than last season. Just in case we are able to make some noise again in Alpha, the SoS won't be that much of an issue.
