This ranking takes a look at turnover, wait time between seasons, and several factors that determine a "parity score".

The first set of numbers represent the raw data for each world and then the second set is that world's "score" for each category.

Category scores are determined by that world's distance from the "baseline world" in each category.

A baseline world is defined as the world with the best raw data in that particular category.

Below is a legend for the abbreviations in the chart:


TO = Turnover. How many total owners have been replaced over the last 4 seasons.

Baseline - 3 - BBWAA

Wait = Wait time between seasons. This number equals how many days longer than 360 the world took to complete 4 seasons.

Baseline - 4 - The MLB/Cooperstown

PO = Playoffs. How many different franchises have appeared in the playoffs over the last 4 seasons.

Baseline - 27 - Happy Jack/Boggs

WS = World Series. How many different teams have made it to the World Series over the last 4 seasons.

Baseline - 8 - 10 tied

100W = How many 100 win + teams during the last 4 seasons.

Baseline - 2 - Cooperstown

100L = How many 100 loss + teams during the last 4 seasons.

Baseline - 4 - Cooperstown/Addicted Users

110W = How many 110 win + teams during the last 4 seasons.

Baseline - 0 - 20 tied

110L = How many 110 loss + teams during the last 4 seasons.

Baseline - 0 - 21 tied

Most W = Most wins by any one team, during any single season, over the last 4 seasons.

Baseline - 101 - Capra

Most L = Most losses by any one team, during any single season, over the last 4 seasons.

Baseline - 101 - Cooperstown

Playoffs	WS	100 W	100 L	110 W	110 L	MOST W	MOST L
21	7	5	1	0		104	102

EDIT: It should be noted that in the "Most W and Most L" column, the actual highest and lowest number for each world was dropped so that one outlier in a skewed season didn't negatively impact a world too badly. That is why you might see a world scored with one instance of having had a team win or lose 110+ but their "Most W" or "Most L" might show a number below that.

I thought this to be a good revision, since looking at the last rankings I thought it may have skewed the numbers too strongly.
Conversely if a world's "Most W" or "Most L" category STILL shows 120+ that means that there was a team not reflected who had an even more absurd figure. Which is pretty telling IMO.

Uecker was not looking good on any of those lists!


Well they have definitely made great strides since then, leading the category of most improved and moving all the way up to 15!

This is informative. Thanks for putting it together.

thanks for the update, mchale! very useful

Additional info culled from the data:

127 out of 141 worlds fall between a score of 33.6 and 80.8 with only 4 instances of more than a full point separating each spot. The 14 on either end are truly outliers.

Only 8 worlds scored less than 31.
29 worlds fall between 33.6 and 44.9.
44 worlds fall between 45.6 and 56.9.
30 worlds fall between 57.5 and 68.8.
24 worlds fall between 69.5 80.8.
6 worlds scored higher than 85.

Yes thank you for all that. Great info there and clear weaknesses for Commissioners to improve their worlds.

As far as "wait time", how do you differentiate between the worlds that are quick to hit the "go public" button and the worlds who are willing to wait it out as a private world?

Posted by mchales_army on 5/30/2018 10:08:00 AM (view original):
This ranking takes a look at turnover, wait time between seasons, and several factors that determine a "parity score".

The first set of numbers represent the raw data for each world and then the second set is that world's "score" for each category.

Category scores are determined by that world's distance from the "baseline world" in each category.

A baseline world is defined as the world with the best raw data in that particular category.

Below is a legend for the abbreviations in the chart:


TO = Turnover. How many total owners have been replaced over the last 4 seasons.

Baseline - 3 - BBWAA

Wait = Wait time between seasons. This number equals how many days longer than 360 the world took to complete 4 seasons.

Baseline - 4 - The MLB/Cooperstown

PO = Playoffs. How many different franchises have appeared in the playoffs over the last 4 seasons.

Baseline - 27 - Happy Jack/Boggs

WS = World Series. How many different teams have made it to the World Series over the last 4 seasons.

Baseline - 8 - 10 tied

100W = How many 100 win + teams during the last 4 seasons.

Baseline - 2 - Cooperstown

100L = How many 100 loss + teams during the last 4 seasons.

Baseline - 4 - Cooperstown/Addicted Users

110W = How many 110 win + teams during the last 4 seasons.

Baseline - 0 - 20 tied

110L = How many 110 loss + teams during the last 4 seasons.

Baseline - 0 - 21 tied

Most W = Most wins by any one team, during any single season, over the last 4 seasons.

Baseline - 101 - Capra

Most L = Most losses by any one team, during any single season, over the last 4 seasons.

Baseline - 101 - Cooperstown

Real Life MLB (2014-2017)

Playoffs	WS	100 W	100 L	110 W	110 L	MOST W	MOST L
21	7	5	1	0		104	102

EDIT: It should be noted that in the "Most W and Most L" column, the actual highest and lowest number for each world was dropped so that one outlier in a skewed season didn't negatively impact a world too badly. That is why you might see a world scored with one instance of having had a team win or lose 110+ but their "Most W" or "Most L" might show a number below that.

I thought this to be a good revision, since looking at the last rankings I thought it may have skewed the numbers too strongly.
Conversely if a world's "Most W" or "Most L" category STILL shows 120+ that means that there was a team not reflected who had an even more absurd figure. Which is pretty telling IMO.

Also, not sure I would drop outliers here. There is a reason that a world has 130 game winners. I think that data is very relevant in your rankings.
