As I was really bored, I found this:
The "Average team fanfactor" we have at our info page is calculated from the fanfactor of both our active and retired teams.
Until now, I thought that the "Average team fanfactor" was calculated only from the fanfactor of the active teams.
I know it is not very important but I thought that it is not bad to let you guys know.
Oh, btw, it would be nice only the active teams to be concidered for this stat, wouldn't it? |

I wouldn't call it fluff any more than the avg scoring and cas listings are. |

I prefer the actual formula with the retired teams included in the calculation. It is more significant. |

If you were going to do that, I'd say have two different formulas...one with retired teams, one without. I know in my case at least, my early teams (when I was still learning how to play) had severe FF problems, not from starting low (virtually always FF 9 to start) but from losing games and not scoring, thus losing during the team's career. My first year, I never had anybody get into the double-digits FF. This past year (not counting my time off) my teams were avering the high-teens, low-twenties, including a high of FF 28 if I remember right. But from the preponderence of retired, busted teams of low FF, my all-time average FF is only 9.something. Does this accurately reflect the player I am today, where my active teams would average 15-16, thus indicating to others that I know what I'm doing when I play?
Does it matter? Not really, but for the purposes of this discussion, I say not to include the retired teams. |
