Just click on the triplechain tag on the top left.

It doesn't really make much sense as a joke...

Also any stat that's already on a leaderboard would be very easy to add, so feel free to suggest any of those.

Site-wide
Games played today/week/month
Games played broken down by type
Puzzles created/solved

Daily Challenges
# biggest margins of victory in DC history (link to challenge)
# most first place ties (link to challenge)
# lowest winning score
# lowest average score
# highest winning score
# highest average score

Players
# Top 100 win %***
# Top 100 played %***
# Top 100 total games played
# Top 10 games/day*
# Top 10 most games in 24 hours***
# Top 10 most games in a row***
# Top 10 fastest games***
# Top 10 timed mode rivals***
longest challenge played streak

Also if you have any gripes or suggestions, now is your (very small) window to throw them out while I've got the TC code open.
If it wasn't obvious already, I like stats a lot. So most of these sound interesting to me. However I don't see them being important enough to be added on the Homepage. I would suggest adding a new tab to the Leaderboards, something like 'Additional stats', and dumping these there. That way those who are interested could take a look, but others wouldn't have to see them.

A lot of players don't seem to play puzzles, maybe adding some kind of rating/ranking system would make people more interested in them? Here is what Paul suggested at some point:

Well, let me ask you this, doesn't it make even less sense as a serious statement?

Dynasty already mentioned this in the TC chat, but he made probably the worst 8th rack mistake I've ever seen in yesterday's DC. Ouch.

i'd much rather finish last than second all the time.

the fact that I remember the decision I took that would have made me win the DC yesterday if I'd have done the other option is even worse.

Alright, I finally tracked down the problem with undo (and with clicking new game multiple times in a row, I'm surprised there wasn't more complaining about that one).

The problem was trickier than I thought, and not caused by anything I changed, which made it annoying to find. Regardless, it should be all better now. Let me know if you notice anything else weird.

Could we have the "Home" tab at the top back? It's annoying to have to re-enter the web address.

Finally, my hopes are low, but maybe increase the minimum rating deviation to 7.5? At least for Timed.

Cheers.

Edit: I've clearly missed the window.
Missed the first window, but I decided to squash the undo bug so I have the code open again.

I will eventually increase the min rating deviation, probably in conjunction with a deviation increase for inactive players. I hate messing with the ratings though, so I will try to make all of the changes at once. I might also try to bring the timed and daily ratings more in line with each other. I think it would be nice if the top ratings in each mode were roughly equal.

It is time for you to accept the reality and that is that you are an inferior Triplechain player that just luckboxed 12 wins. Feel free to no further contribute to this thread as you are lowering its intellectual quality.

On a serious note, you and Popcorn are both making serious progress with your Daily ratings, it's just gonna take a while. It looks like you could easily get to Daily Pro though.
