As we wrap up the first quarter of kdice competition under the current scoring rules, I want to give recognition to kdice players of superior skill, especially those who are more recent arrivals to the game. At the end of May I will make a listing of TAPL scorers in three catagories:
1. Top TAPL scorers among players who began playing kdice in May. 2. Top TAPL scorers among players who have been playing kdice since April. 3. Top TAPL scorers among players who have been playing kdice since the scoring change and reset of the Elo's in February. The TAPL is explained in the comment at my profile page. The TAPL and this competition have no official endorsement from Ryan. To qualify for the competition, you must have played at least 35 games. To enter the competition, make a post to this thread. I will reply with a computation of your current lifetime TAPL. At the end of the month I will work up the lifetime TAPL's for all the contests and award certificates. I don't have fancy graphics capabilities like Ryan has for the trophies, but I will issue a certificate that looks like this: 5684 ∫ 1st.∫∫∫ A 3-month TAPL in the 5000's is likely to have a good finish, a 2-month TAPL in the 2000's is a good score, and a 1-month TAPL in the 1000's means you have a good shot for the top spot. |

at 3:29 PM, Tuesday May 22, 2007 EDT Interested, but won't the score vary greatly based on when you started? The earlier you started, the easier it was to get to the higher level. Look at my first months score, versus the last two. The first month was working it's way up, the last two months were playing at the highest level.

I think that you are right. At the start, you are working out your basic strategies and your profile takes shape. If you keep the same profile month after month your TAPL will have a constant growth rate but if your strategies continue to evolve your profile will shift and the lifetime TAPL will suffer. Here is your total number of games, lifetime profile, and lifetime TAPL: 640 14% 13% 16% 16% 14% 14% 9% 1662 |

You need only 35 games to qualify for the one-month division. That shouldn't be too hard to do in the next 9 days. |
