Cool article Bovovovovovovo!

what I'm getting from this is the Yeti are still big succ

One thing working against our SOS is that we had to play that succy ARI team twice already.

It definitely does, I just couldn't figure an accurate way to incorporate it quantitatively. Maybe some way to weigh each game based on if it was home or away?

I'm not sure. Hopefully someone smarter than I could figure it out.

That would be the easiest way, probably. Could be implemented just by adding a multiplier for home/away games.

I did something similar a while ago, adapted from a system I created for something in nationstates funnily enough, lol.

Basically it counts a home win as 0.7 wins, and an away win as 1.3 wins (I think) instead of 1 and 1 respectively, so a team with 3 home wins and 1 away win from 5 games doesn't have a win rate of 0.8, but 0.68 instead (because ((3*0.7)+1.3)/5 = 0.68)

You'd have to figure out how much weighting to give home advantage I guess, but that can be estimated from the Elo stuff JuOSu (I think) did before, probably. Without crunching the numbers, I imagine 0.7/1.3 is probably close to where it should be

These rankings don't match my worldview so thanks for wasting my time
