Fatman_x takes the 2010 TAZD; computation of complete standings in progress.
Posted By: skrumgaer at 6:51 PM, Saturday January 1, 2011 EST
Here are Fatman_x's final stats:

1631 22% 16% 13% 12% 10% 11% 11% 22535 Fatman_x

Olkainry38 did not play any additional games after Dec 21.

Here were the two leaders on Dec 21:

1591 22% 16% 13% 13% 10% 11% 11% 21975 Fatman_x
0894 22% 20% 16% 13% 11% 08% 07% 21798 olkainry38



The November scores are below. They were recomputed when I found I had been using the 2009 datum instead of the 2010 datum.

The Test Against Zero Datum (TAZD) is a weighted sum of the squares of the differences between a player's percentage profile and the profile of a typical player with a zero score, adjusted according to the square root of the number of games played. If you would like to enter the cumulative TAZD competition for 2010, reply to this thread in the account that you want to enter.

In 2010, the cumulative TAZD began in April, because some January, February, and March profiles had corrupted percentages.

A minimum of sixty regular games per month was required.

Entries show number of games, percentages, and player name.

A minimum of 540 regular games played was required to remain in the standings as of December 31.

Here are the end of November standings with the new datum.

Instead of tazd can you use the alternate scoring chloe has been using? It's much more accurate.

Chloe has already offered to do up a yearly asr. She is still tweaking the methodology.

I have a method for adjusting the TAPL/TAZD for level of table played but it is a crude adjustment because we don't have stats for total buy-in or for distribution of tables played.

If we have average buy-in, or guts per game (GPG) we could adjust any score based on performance at a table, such as tapl, tazd, or asr, by multiplying it by the GPG. The GPG can be estimated by dividing a player's PPG by what would be expected if he played all his games as the lowest level of table, but dom throws those calculations off.

If we had each player's distribution of level of tables played, we could use the golden ratio to make an adjustment based on that distribution (see discussion of the QOOA on my Wall).

Yeah Vermont, I want to set it up so that the asr is more set in stone than it is now before I start posting stats for a yearly competition. I'll make a post about it when I open it and include everyone that's in the yearly tazd plus whoever else wants to join.

Skrum, make a stat where I'm first. It's fine if it's biggest jackass, moron, whatever, just make it already.

Nice month chaiNblade but the 2010 TAZD does not include January-March and you don't have enough games since then. The minimum to qualify is now up to 360.
