One thought is that eventhough it is only a short time between Nov. 1st and whenever you start, you might be hearing more from people who have started out well than otherwise.

That's a very good point. But selection bias is going to be horrible here no matter what I do.

My goal here is not to run an air-tight statistical analysis. It's to combine data sets from winning players who volunteer before they play their sets (or most of their sets, as you point out.)

What we'll have in a few weeks is a set of data that looks like it will cover well over 20,000 SNGs from a relatively small and somewhat similar group of winning players.

It will give us a better idea of how much money you can make playing SNGs on Party right now than any other way I can think of.

It's just data. It is going to be helpful to me in a number of different ways and I think it will be helpful to others.
