Polls, part two
Polls
Here’s a thing I’m playing around with. Please consider the following teams’ abilities and where you think they would finish at a hypothetical national championship with all of the best teams and perfect quality questions and format for determining the quality of high school teams. Continue reading
Ranking Update
A couple of pertinent notes:
1) Culver’s stats from the Sunday Solon event and BCC’s stats from TJIAT are not being considered, obviously. I haven’t seen anything that would invalidate their other events, so I’m using those stats as being valid. Continue reading

Adjusting for Difficulty: ACF Fall
I’m going to walk through what I’m trying to do with adjustments for tournaments more and less difficult than so-called “regular difficulty” sets. This is admittedly not a particularly advanced model, in large part because I don’t have the time, resources, or knowledge to put together particularly in-depth algorithms for these comparisons; it is intended to provide something a “rule of thumb” rather than a hard and fast case of a number you absolutely most add to get the information I’m looking for.
