Thought I'd give this a go, it's non-biased since it is based off a formula. The formula uses wins, strength-of-schedule, and point difference; with it weighted in that order.

Without further ado:

Looky there Tanzanian Terror move to the top, based on the stronger SOS. Also due to their NT, K, and backup C being pretty damn good.

In last, Sahara, who seem to like the cool damp feeling of the cellar. Which is good, because they will not be moving out any time soon.

Gotham City Jokers 1.07

Well, well, Transatlantic moves back to the top spot by virtue of their incessant bitching last week. Well that, and the 40 point spread they put on Kilimanjaro, coupled with their SOS and Tanzanian's SOS taken about an equal hit.

Then in last place... yep, still them.

How is this figured out?

The Magic of Simple Math.

Basically take the win total and multiply that by 4, then add in stregth of schedule (which is a running difference of your opponents win/lose divided by 16), and finally add in Point Difference which is divided by 100. Then all of that is divided by the week number.

So as the season goes on SOS will play a larger role, but will not skew the importance of win totals, the PD is thrown in as another factor to set like teams apart.

But is strength of schedule going to matter since we all play each other once?

(I am not asking to be a jerk, I think what you are doing is awesome. But I was just curious.)

Yeah I you are right, though there is the ONE out of conference game . I may play around with it a bit, add in some other factors. I've used this in the past and it worked pretty well, but with our schedule setup it may need some tweaking.

Though for awhile it will help seperate the upper teams, untill we get toward the end of the season (when it starts to even out).

could you rank the top players in the league?, If its a lot of work them forget it, maybe like the top 5 or something wouldn't be as hard.

I didn't even know we had an out of conference game. Thanks for pointing that out.

Thanks for sharing the formula... I geek out over stuff like this.

One Spot, by a hundreth of a point. You both beat on Kilimonjaro to get up there. Plus, we are only two weeks in, SOS isn't playing much of a role yet.
