I know it's a small sample size, but I couldn't resist. Also, I know I don't have the biggest e-penis in town. My stats are pretty humble, but I still can't believe I've made over 1.5k doing this.

500 Party $20+2 NL STTs

ROI: 15.3%
ITM: 38.0%
Profit: $1680 (not including my rakeback. I had rakeback for my last 300 games)

Background of the games:
Approximately 100 games were done prior to my discovery of 2+2. My only knowledge of how to play SnGs was from reading that short article by Chris Moneymaker on SnG strategy. I think this gave me just enough information to atleast keep a slightly positive ROI. The first 50 games were done single tabling, and the next 50 games were done 2 and 3 tabling with overlap. The last 400 games were done 4-tabling on my 19" CRT at 1600x1200. Can anything be taken from this small sample size of 500?

Solid stats... I would be a bit more aggressive early because it looks like you seem to be getting desperate with a very short stack too much 5 handed (I could be wrong though heh). This is pretty much what my stats looked like 2 months ago. After the blind level changes, I decided there was way more 'poker' to be played and I honed my game a bit at 6max NL100 for a few weeks. It improved my play a ton (I'll post my stats once I reach 1000)... definitely long term +EV. Also, I suggest searching 'curtains' backposts because he is a top player who has played at all of the levels and gives away a ridiculous amount of great information (more than he should IMO).

Still a newbie myself but looks pretty good to me, although I'm sure some will pipe up about the finish distribution.

I'm about 1/2 way through my 1st tracked 500 games at the 22s, all single tabling as I started out at Paradise...

My current stats are similar so I hope you're on the right track /images/graemlins/grin.gif

Also that is one hell of a heater for a 20 tourney span... You went up over $1k in 20 tourneys... over a 200% ROI... wow.
