I think that this has been already discussed one or two months ago. However, I think it's worth mentioning again...
At the moment players appear in the PPG section of the leaderboard even if they only played one game (For example a 1st at a 500 level table, see below). This makes the PPG stat less significant, since it does not really show which player has the best PPG. EXAMPLE: At the moment, aliaiactasunt (http://kdice.com/profile/5281451/stats) has the lead in the PPG ranking. He got that lead thanks to a 2nd place (276) at a 500 level table he hasn't played any other games yet and I think people will have a tough time beating those 276 PPG. But does that really tell us that aliaiactasunt is a skilled player who had a high PPG this month? Wishbone on the other side has "already" played 34 games with a PPG of 218. Even though wishbones PPG is lower than aliaiactasunt's, I think everybody agrees that wishbone's PPG is more significant/ tells us more about his PPG skills than aliaiactasunt's. MY SUGGESTION: In order to make the PPG stat more transparent/ significant, there should be a minimum number of games people have to play in order to be able to appear on the PPG Leaderboard.

at 9:00 AM, Tuesday September 23, 2008 EDT considering you can make it to the top100 in a little under 40 games, I think the minimum should be 30 for every column.

But still... we need a minimum number of games. |
