The past seasons isn't working on teams that have promoted/demoted between 10 and 11.


I know. That's why it says "Please note: Previous seasons will only work right now if you were in the same league in the previous season as you are now. This may be handled better in the future." at the bottom of the entry form.

Your tools are awesome, any chance you will include a page where we can see the full team rankings, global and country?

The pythagorean record is calculated for different sports by using the same formula:

win% = (points for)^n/[(points for)^n+(points against)^n]

where n is different for baseball, basketball, and (American) football. For baseball the exponent is 2, and for football the exponent is 2.4. The most widely accepted exponent I've seen for basketball is 14; however, the one in this program appears to use 10.

You are correct, I use 10. I didn't do any analysis beyond eyeballing the results when I played around with the exponents. 10 seemed to be the most reasonable whole number. If anyone feels like doing the analysis to get the "right" exponent for BB, feel free.

Since we're at the end of another season, thought I'd repost this. I've been using it a lot over the last day.

Just wanted to quickly publicize a new tool I've made live:

(http://bbtools.oeuftete.com/bbtools/winners)

It shows the league winners for a given country, league level, and season. It works "live", so for example if you wanted a quick overview of all the winners in III for your country, you could select your country, level 3, season 10, and it would show you the winners for the completed series, and "unknown" for those not yet done.

It's still pretty rough, but I thought I'd mention it in case people might find it useful as the season comes to an end.

My once a season reminder... easy way to check the league winners in your country.
