No yet but hopefully soon. I was updating it and then started on this project. Once we get this rolling I will be able to finish DPCstats (updated) and I will post it.

As cool as your logo is I find it gets distracting after a while. Would you mind going back to the Static one? If not I may be forced to block it! :)

Ah, that's good. I make my modest proposal, disappear for 12 hours, come back and, in Kirbic's words, "It is ASSIMILATED"! I think this is great, the final piece of the pizzle.
LOCK AND LOAD!

Each photographer and team has it beginning averages now on your pages. This way we can see the improvements made throughout the six week season. Also everyones weekly average will show up but the four averages that will make up the teams average for the week will be in green.
Lets have fun!
Team Olympus where is your logo? And were you considering changing your name?

Great work :) It would be handy if the teams in the league table and more specifically the schedule, were links to the team pages, so we can easily see who we are up against :)

Can someone clarify something for me. We are talking about taking the top 4 entries and averaging that per team? Why so few? Won't each photographer have the chance to enter multiple challenges in a given week? If say 3 photographers enter 2 challenges in a week and the other 4 enter just one that's 10 total entries 6 of which will get tossed out as meaningless. That seems like it would discourage being active in general. Also, if 1-2 team members get hot and enter a bunch of challenges the rest of the team will just feel like they are sitting on the sidelines even though they are entering challenges.

Good point. 43% of the team is being thrown out. At least 5 (maybe 6)should count towards the final score. That still gives a little room for error but makes each member more valueble.

Probably 'cuz the original DQ level was set at less-than-4 entries for a team on the week. We can try it this way and adjust in the next iteration if that seems warranted. Not all that many people enter allt he challenges, though...

Hey Southern_Exposure...
How are the averages calculated on the Team Pages?
If it's the average of all the player's challenges, then mine is off by a touch...(as of today) :-)
Is it somehow weighted/handicapped or something?
(did I miss a comment about this...if so, sorry)

We had this discussion this afternoon and it seemed the majority was in favor of the top four.
But to be fair lets take a team by team poll till tomorrow night to see what the each team and photographer says.
My Team will Start.

1. souther_exposure - Top 5 photographers
2. dsmeth -

I was assuming the top 4 couldn't include 2 from the same photographer... so each photographer's highest is counted, then the top 4 of those is counted?

That's correct; if a photographer has multiple entries, his top entry is his score for the week. The team core uses the 4 top photographers on that team for the week. There will still be 4 photographers representing the team even if one photographer shoots the 2 highest scores for that week; only the highest will count.
