Team Leaderboard


Concise description:
  • lists the team members names & the number of unique defeats each team has
  • options in a dropdown would allow the viewer to see uniques for just Dubs, Trips or Quads
  • a 2nd set of dropdowns (or check boxes) would allow the viewer to see uniques for just Freestyle, Speed, Nuclear or any other game option or combinations there of
  • a third dropdown would allow the viewer to see the leaderboard by individual map (the default view would be all maps)


Specifics/Details:
  • each unique team pairing would have an entry on the scoreboard and the numbers of unique kills it has achieved
  • it would be possible for 1 player who has paired consistently with someone to appear more than once, their name listed with each pairing
  • my idea is based on the Highest Batting Partnership tables found in cricket

ie.

Unique Defeats ..... Player A .......................... Player B
624 ................... Kumar Sangakkara .............. Mahela Jayawardene
576 ................... Sanath Jayasuriya ............... Roshan Mahanama
467 ................... Andrew Jones .................... Martin Crowe
451 ................... Bill Ponsford ...................... Donald Bradman
451 ................... Mudassar Nazzar ................. Javed Miandad


How this will benefit the site and/or other comments:
  • this concept would generate competition between groups of players as they would be able to easily see how they compare to all other groupings
  • it would also be possible to upgrade this further by showing the most consective unique defeats for a team (something along the lines of the Most Consecutive Test Wins table found in cricket)

Most Consescutive
Unique Defeats ..... Player A .......................... Player B

26 ................... Kumar Sangakkara .............. Mahela Jayawardene
18 ................... Sanath Jayasuriya ............... Roshan Mahanama
12 ................... Andrew Jones .................... Martin Crowe
12 ................... Bill Ponsford ...................... Donald Bradman
11 ................... Mudassar Nazzar ................. Javed Miandad

This sounds like a better idea as a script in an add-on if you ask me...but hey....maybe thats just me...lets see what others have to say.

Disagree, technically these should be queried directly from the database as it is much more efficient and maintainable.

exactly, once setup it could be automatically updated every hour or so like the current scoreboard is
