Well, all the gloom and doom talked about in weeks past about "one bad week by Gore owners and most of them will be gone" may actually become true.....if you change Gore to LT2. His ownership is LESS than the cut % this week and next, so a poor performance could literally wipe him off the map if thigs fall just right. While LT2 has carried many of his owners (and very disproportionately so based on Drinin's numbers), a slip by his $71 committment could very well end your show when compared to a slip by the "blue light special" of Gore.
That said, I was able to distill the data down to get the weekly results of all remaining 1501 teams (what can I say, it was a slow day at work...). There are about 10-15 POWERHOUSE teams in our midst. They are literally blowing the field away on a week by week basis. Topping this list is Grant Downing, who is a full 26 points ahead of the second best team in YTD total scoring. Realize that after the top 13 or so, you see the incremental drop to the next team dwindle to about 1 point per place, and outside of the top 50, just a few tenths separate the places. Needless to say, Mr. Downing has LT2 as his centerpiece, so I'm hoping he gets shut down soon!
I'll post my results table later tonight, when I get it properly formatted for your dissection!

Thanks for all the work! Is there any chance of posting the bottom 30, just for comparison?
). I learned all my "real" statistics on the fly at work and have a decent understanding of math in general. The number I quoted was the "median" function from excel, which if I understand correctly gives you the number that is the "middle" of a population of the data you are looking at. Half of your scores should have you beating 61.9% of the field or better (your best was 80%), and half of your scores less than 61.9% (worst was 0.8%). I understand it to be better than "average" in things like this (where bye weeks can skew your results), because one really bad week will bring down your average, but it just counts as a "worse than the median" week in this calculation. Maybe a true math guy can explain it more accurately, but the guts to your question is that this number is the result of the excel "median" function on your percentile ranks from weeks 2-10
when I first added up my scores and got 1381.4 (just outside top 30), then I saw that is was based on 9 weeks
