OT: Things I never knew about Party's Leaderboard

[AA suited]

I got the weekly popup again saying i'm Top400 on the Leaderboard. So i decided to finally click on the link to check my points. Then looked at the Leaderboard RULES.

1) points only for top 20% of the Tourny field. so for a single table sng, you only get points for 1st and 2nd. hm.. 2 and 3 table SnGs better?

2) $5000 bonus for monthly Leaderboard point winner. [img]/images/graemlins/ooo.gif[/img] For Nov, it looks like it'll be KiepDoDen04 with 43174 points. 2nd closest is losyara007 with 34625.

Who are they and what do they play?!

(Winning a $109 SnG get you 97 points according to Party's point calculator.)

3) They combined the single table and multi-table leaderboards? I liked it better when it was separate. (Just my opinion.)

4) A few players in the Top100 are $50+5 players. You get 82 points for winning a $55.

To get 11k points (~100th spot), you need to win 135 SnGs. If 1st place finishes ~15%, so thats 900 SnGs in a month.

for the #1 spot, you need 4x that, so 3600 SnGs. that's 12hrs/day 10 tabling [img]/images/graemlins/ooo.gif[/img] hm.. Raptor comes to mind [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Hm.. raptor's best is something like 176 a day, 20 tabling, I think. He's lazy man [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

A while ago juicyv_gina was doing good on the leaderboard, and he played $22's??

2) Party gives money to the Top 100. link here

4) A lot of the 55 players in the top 100 aren't even that great IMO. i.e. Green_Smurf, badbeats_com, Frozen_acct. They probably just play a ridiculous amount.

He's a bot. Party has proof.

I play 3 or 4 $215's/day...Always one at a time..KeepDoDen04 is almost always there, so I'm thinking that he/she plays a shitload of $215's

well the 2 and 3 table sngs have more points available per dollar invested (as do the mtts) but they run infrequently.

i think that kiep plays the 200s, i don't know losyara but i think i saw him at the 200s as well. i don' think either is a 2+2er. you should understand that the relation between buyin and points isn't linear. so winning a 100 is not 2x more points than winning a 50.

i have seen losyara several times at the 22s? must play a rediculous amount or absolutly kill the 22s?

[Newt_Buggs]

KiepDoDen plays a ridiculous amount of $215s. Obviously, there is only a small correlation between leaderboard ranking and skill though.

[FieryJustice]

I am # 7 right now and I have been taking it pretty easy all month, only puttin in about 70 or so $109s and $55s each day. I thiiink I am going to go crazy next month and play about 125 $55s a day which is about what it will take to get 1st.
