Hi Scott!
Procedural question:
From what I understand, DPL was based on score to begin with. But last time switched to percentile to even things out (since some challenges can have a high of 7.8, while others have a high of 6.7 -- but with percentiles type of challenge isn't as important.
Are you basing this on scores or on percentile achieved?
thanks!!!

Basing it on scores not percentile.

Lets say you enter all three challenges that week. Your highest scoring challenge will be the challenge that may count toward your teams score. I say may because your high score has to be one of the top four scores on the team. Out of the seven team players the top 4 scores out of the to 7 counts toward the team average which is divided by 4. A team member can only have one of the top 4 averages.
I hope that helps answer your question. I'm going to try to come up with a guide to the WPL that will help everyone understand how their score effects their teams score, etc.
Thanks for everyone's patients as I put this together. And if anyone has any questions feel free to post. I will follow up with answers as soon as possible.

Here ya go Wendy. This should clear it up a bit.
No %'s in scoring.

The team you are referring to, yes there are two lines that state TBA. The first line is a users spot and  sekarmalathy has filled that spot for about three days. The second TBA is NOT a users spot but where the team name goes. The team has not confirmed there team name so I have left it TBA and have not updated there team page (last users and team name) until the captain lets me know the team name. It is easier to do one update than two. |
Thanks for the information that I've been waiting on from the team captain for a couple of days now. I've heard from another team member that there might be some personal issues in the way of moving forward. Still, I've had a great team experience twice in DPL and if this team is off to a slow start in getting organized it might not be worth the frustration anyway.
Although I indicated my interest very early in this thread (post # 13) I missed out because I was on vacation and was out of contact for a week.
So.....nobody thought to save me a spot? No problem...I'll be my own one man team with the goal of denying as many ribbons as I can to those teams who didn't pick me up. How's that for a personal challenge? Let the games begin ;) |
Scott,
Can we open up an 8th spot on all teams? I'm betting there are enough members out there who would like to play to justify the spot.
ETA: If he'll do this, I would very much like you on our team.. |
I would like to but all my vba macros and formulas are set to seven. It would put the WPL back weeks for me to change. To give you an example; with 7 players on 16 teams that took 112 formula just to make sure their score posted correctly and that was just for one challenge. Now times that by three challenges a week for 10 weeks. That would be over 3000 formulas to recalculate.
However, the bright spot is I'm currently (in what spare time I have) working on the WPL site to increase the teams to 9 players for the next season. I have had a lot of users suggest that since the dpl had 9 players per team.
Thanks,
Scott

So once the WPL starts, is this like DPL in that we can submit to all challenges in the week, and only our highest score counts? Or is it only the Sunday challenge?
And how many of the photographers scores count towards the total?
Sorry if this has been said before. I find it easier to just ask rather than read through the 17+ pages |
