Adding points percentage to league table

edit

Is it possible to add the percentage of possible points each team has won (the number of standings points they have, divided by the number of points they would have if they had won every single game they had played thus far, including the no-results) to the table in #League Stage? As an example for the Eastern Division with the current standings, with the added percentage bolded, and the "games played" and "points" columns italicized (sorry for bad table formatting):

_____

Pos Team Pld W L NR Pts Pts % NRR

1 New Jersey Stallions 12 8 4 0 16 (66.66% = 16/24) 0.682

2 The Philadelphians 11 6 3 2 14 (63.63% = 14/22) 0.128

3 DC Hawks 13 7 6 0 14 (53.84% = 14/26) −0.179

4 Empire State Titans 10 5 3 2 12 (60% = 12/20) 1.668

5 NJ Somerset Cavaliers 12 6 6 0 12 (50% = 12/24) 1.679

6 Manhattan Yorkers 10 6 4 0 12 (60% = 12/20) 0.313

7 New England Eagles 10 4 6 0 8 (40% = 8/20) −0.819

It becomes easier to understand where each team is at mid-season: For example, we can see that though NJ Somerset Cavaliers (50% points percentage) are in 5th place, with 6 wins (12 points), they're actually not on track to finish as high as Manhattan Yorkers (6th place with 60% points percentage) if each team maintains their current winning rate, as the Yorkers also have 6 wins (12 points) but have played 2 fewer games.

This is basically like keeping track of teams' winning percentage. GreekApple123 (talk) 03:05, 10 September 2021 (UTC)Reply

@GreekApple123: Hmm, not sure. I took a look over at the Lua code at Module:Sports table/CricketRR (the table which is currently being used) and it doesn't appear to have any mechanism built specifically for a points percentage count. Nothing else is mentioned much at the template document, but if there is a cricket table with the functionality of a percentage count, feel free to replace the current table to whichever you find has a percentage count.

Games played

edit

Teams play 14 to 16 depending on the division they play,the Atlantic Eastern division play 14 despite having 6 in 2021 and 5 in 2023, I having looked at all the games, but do they play teams only in the Atlantic East division or is it like MLS where they play teams from the Atlantic South division Japhes23 (talk) 10:21, 10 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
