Hi Folks!
I run a weekly NFL pool where people pick the winners of
the games. Throughout the year some people may drop out
and others may join in. In past years, we've determined
the pool winner to be the person(s) that has the highest
winning percentage. This year I want to weight the process.
For example, if someone participated for the entire year
but has a lower winning percentage than someone else that
only participated for half the year but has a higher
winning percentage, I want to penalize the person that
participated less.
How do I go about weighting the winning percentage based
on the weekly participation?
I know this isn't exactly a math or stats forum but I
think it's relavent.
Thanks
