Rating the Galaxy

        This page looks at the decks played here in the Mt. Vernon, IA area (with a few games from Illinois played by already listed members), and ranks them in many ways.  Here is a format we work from: For classification purposes, ratings in green means Yogi played the deck, blue means Adam, red means Shawn, white means Bryan, purple means Dave, pink means Rory, light blue means P-Money, orange means Logan, lime green means Steph, icky yellow means Kyle, beige means Nick, brown means Gabe, and dark purple means Luke.  Colored numbers in front of each deck tell who owns the deck.  If the deck title is light grey, then it links to the actual deck (and a (o) means it is an off-site link).  Also, after each index score, a number in parenthases will show the number of players in the game.  The formula for the index score is listed after the charts. I hope it helps.  OK, here are the main charts:

Total Games Scored - 298; 173 2-player, 99 3-player, 20 4-player, 5 5-player, and 1 6-player game for 744 total scores

        The Index Score equals the player's ending power (to a maximum of 20, 20 for victory or shared victory) plus the rank score (see chart below) plus four if a victory is scored within the time limit (we use 1 hour 45 minutes) plus 3 more if the victory is a major victory plus any discressionary points awarded (see second chart below).  This indexing value can hurt decks like Steal Babylon 4 themes and other all or nothing themes (like many Drakh decks), but it will do.

        This system is still being played out,but this is what has worked for our group.  So far, we've played quite a few games, but many decks still have played only a few, so they move more wildly.  The indexing system was modeled loosely off of tournament ranking systems once used by Precedence.  Let me know what you think.
