Reading another thread, I started to look at this page;

http://fumbbl.com/FUMBBL.php?page=blackbox

It seems to me that BWR and BBR are balanced around the 150 mark, so I would expect the average of both lines to come back roughly to 150 (with a slight difference for first games not included).

The BBR seems to fall into that category at about 149.7, but why is the BWR so high for so many teams?

Surely they can't all be winning more games than they lose?

I am missing something? Probably, but what is it I am missing?

People retire teams that perform badly in their first 4 games so the stats dont effect this.

That my guess anyway Smile

I wondered that too. I assumed probably wrongly that it is because losing teams either don't play so much or get retired before they are counted.

It only counts teams that have played in the last 30 days, so i would imagine that losing teams are set aside in favour of teams that win.

What he said.

More wins = healthy team = more games = more skills = more winning = more games...
