I don't understand it a bit. Some not really best teams are higher than me(unbeaten) and Buffalo(the most difficult schedule) in the ranking.

Since we don't know how that rankulator ranking is working, it is hard to judge.

Could be you have an easier schedule, based on bot/human or even on scores of your opponents, and therefore your wins are not that "valuable" as the others? I don't know if tex will reveal the details, but I read somewhere that wouldnt be an easy task.

I like those kind of rankings.

How did you evaluate the strenght of the schedule? Do you calculate with a human/Bot ratio? Do you calculate only with the already played games or with all 16 games?


First, SOS is calculated using a your avg opponents rankings and your avg opponents opponents ranking...

Second, I used only 10% for MOV, to try to levelize the blowouts, and used 60% for SOS as an important ingredient to compensate for playing the bots...

Third, I used only games played to date...

So you see, there is plenty of room for movement as not all teams have played the same amount of games yet, and also strength of schedule will change up or down impacting the rankings as well...

Hope you enjoy, and best of luck to all...

Maybe it works someway. That's true I have very easy schedule, but Paradise Regained or Terrormages - a bit weaker teams who lost already are higher? Also Lucea Cardinals behind my team has 1 defeat, but face all strongest teams so should have more point by difficult schedule(more difficult than Terrormages or Paradise or at least similar).

I try to evaluate the SOS of every team of or League.

Not all human teams are equal. I think we have category A (teams who can beat every team) and B (teams who are the underdog against A).

A: Wesley Crushers, Limburg Trolls, Paradise Regained, Monster Piskots, Leeds Celtics, Terrormages, Naprzód Marsz!, Lucea Cardinals

B: Hurricanes, Black Knights, Northwest Arkansas Torture, Scorpions Bad Goisern


1.) Monster Piskots 6xA 3xB 7xBOT
2.) Black Knights 5xA 3xB 8xBOT
2.) Hurricanes 5xA 3xB 8xBOT
4.) Paradise Regained 5xA 3xB 8xBOT
5.) Scorpions Bad Goisern 6xA 10xBOT
6.) Terrormages 5xA 2xB 9xBOT
7.) Leeds Celtics 5xA 2xB 9xBOT
8.) Wesley Crushers 3xA 5xB 8xBOT
9.) Northwest A.T.4xA 2xB 10xBOT
10.) Lucea Cardinals 4xA 1xB 11xBOT
11.) Limburg Trolls 2xA 4xB 10xBOT
12.) Naprzód Marsz! 2xA 14xBOT

One point - the Nieuwed Goblins weren't a bot team when I played them - that makes it even more complex

Yeah guys, your league is very complex due to the number of bots, and some of the numbers are quirky as a result...

Remember SOS is not just your opponents ranking, but your opponents opponents ranking also... This means who the guys you have played and who they have played are calculated in your ranking...

If you're interested I can post what the Rankulator shows as SOS rankings...

It would be nice if we could get more active teams - maybe the 4pm kickoff times don't suit everyone - but that was exactly why I chose the league, I can't watch games around 6-9pm most nights.

Hmm,nice 6A and 3 risky B. But having 1:1 is still nice...

The time to relax is over for most teams. Now come the interesting games and many things can happen in the playoff race. Only Seat#1 in the NC is decided.
