      Says something about the quality of the competition here if everyone who tried is in the top, or very close to the top 20 percent. In a regular fantasy league you'd either place first or second. Wow. Also, you'd expect one player in about the 97.5 percentile. Snoopy is in the .2 percentile, so about 15x as good as expected. Wow. It will be awhile before we'll see that again.

          I think that has more to do with a majority of the people that signed up not finishing the season. I obviously sucked at this, but hope to do better next year.

          We see the same in our golf league also.

            If the distribution were more scattered I might agree with you - but it's not.

              Ben, it's a fact: Yahoo computes their pct rankings based on everyone who signed up, and tons of people stop playing before end of year. Pretty sure ESPN does the same. Early in the year, our percentages were sad. Over time, they trended upward even though our actual scoring did not.

              Example: After Week 2, our 7th place team was at 51% nationally. After Week 6, 7th place was at 61.5%. Week 9, 63.8%. By year's end, 7th place was at 81.5%.

              Those ranking percentages went up precipitously, yet our scores did not. They were pretty stable, though slightly better after a few weeks of getting the hang of things. But frankly, we did not improve anywhere near that much. The only rational explanation is that more and more people dropped out (which, I guess, counts for something).

              Not to detract from snoopy369's accomplishment. Top 100 nationally is a tall order. He kicked ass all year, and jgramsey was very good as well. Snoop beat our 3rd place team by over 9 pts/week while averaging 96.5. The rest of us were actually kind of meh...

                Ok, if you say so. Personally I think poly leagues are pretty damn tough.

                  More proof that Ben refuses to listen to actual FACTS. No surprise.
