Luck on leaderboard

I was looking at leaderboard and saw SalinhoOo as the unluckiest this mounth with 42.3% luck. Found it strange since he is first and even has the most number of wins this mounth.
Found it even stranger after browsing his profile that his worst day this mounth has over 48% luck. I went on to check the other unlucky players and the same thing happens there. My question is: How is the overall luck of the mounth calculated? How can a player during 13 days always average the luck over 48% and show up as 42%? |

at 5:58 AM, Tuesday January 17, 2017 EST Monthly luck stats are just bullshit. The more games you play the lower you get. If you look at anybody from the top you can see the monthly luck being lower than any single day. Thus it is not a simple average.
There might be an inday influence as well, but having a life I don't play so much a single day to check it. There are two possible reasons. The formula to compute monthly luck might be wrong or the implementation is bugged. |

at 1:53 AM, Friday January 20, 2017 EST Just to make sure, as a non-American I don't have to get the fuzz about Pat Whalen, do I? If I was missing something of more importance, like e.g. making Donald Duck the president, some information would be welcome.
Other than that and looking at the bumped threat - I miss r0n, his style of playing and his comments. |
