Final Final Score

After Adam gave the spreadsheet a second look, some duplicate scores were spotted so I thought a fresh post was needed for the final table. And he came up with a scoring system of his own. I've called it "A.B.S." for Adam's Binary System. Nothing to do with two stars orbiting each other: in this, the winner gets one point, the last place gets zero, and everyone else a fraction (decimal, actually) based on their score in the game.

Meanwhile, I donned sensible statician's gloves and worked out everyone's mean score. I can't explain it too well myself (perhaps Wikipedia can help) but basically, winning by a large margin is rewarded, because it deviates so far from the norm.

At least this spreads the victories around a bit more...
