Our first leaderboard in this season. Please check your points. If you have any questions or find any mistakes, please let me know.

I think I need a run through on the 'Vote Points'. Seems to me Neldoreth and Bugsda and a couple others should have 10 vote points as well?

Thanks for doing the leaderboard by the way

No, they shouldn't, it's changed:

0-24 = 0 vote points
25-74 = 1 vote points
75-124 = 2 vote points
125-174 = 3 vote points
175-224 = 4 vote points
225-274 = 5 vote points
275-324 = 6 vote points
325-374 = 7 vote points
375-424 = 8 vote points
425-474 = 9 vote points
475-524 = 10 vote points

Well, I am starting off strong, in the top ten. I don't see that continuing for long, but it will be nice while it lasts!

That's what I get for not sticking to the theme!

Not for me, I'm going to nosedive!

Is that. 'Yazz and the Plastic Population'? I haven't heard that in years!

I didn't notice this change in the rules. As a suggestion for next year, maybe you can change the brackets from absolute number of votes to 'percentile ranges (e.g. 0-10 % of total votes: 0 pts; 11-20%: 1 pt,....).

I've noticed that the total number of votes can vary wildly from matchup to matchup. 'Popular' matchups means more possible votes. E.g. Darth Jaymz was in a matchup with 460 total votes, so despite his gathering 96,95% of the votes he got 9 points just as Neldoreth (97,6% of votes). Dr. Mathias has a comparable percantage of votes (96,5 %) but nets one point more.

I'm quite sure that participating is way more important than the exact number of points on scores, but I suppose that the 'competition' element is also part of the fun. Maybe a system of percentile brackets could compensate for the difference in number of votes.

The idea is not bad at all and I think it's a good possible way to compensate the up and downs of the total number of votes. We will take it into consideration for sure for the next season.
