I'm sure you've mentioned this before but how are the best games determined?
I don't know that I've mentioned it, so thanks for asking.
I identify games that satisfy the following three criteria:
1. Neither team is SimAI-coached (People don't care about games involving Sims)
2. My projected spread on the game is less than or equal to 14 in either direction (People want to see a competitive game)
3. The total talent of the two teams, added together based on my Team Ratings, is over a certain threshold for each level (People want to see good teams playing)
The threshold is arbitrary. I played around with it the season I started doing this and just got it to a level where I felt like it was truly games worth paying attention to. It's not perfect because that threshold probably should ebb and flow with the changing of the talent within a given world. But I'm not that ambitious. :)
