DISCLAIMER: Analysis below is not meant to convey any opinion of mine. You can interpret it however you see fit yourself.
I've basically used the KeSPA ranking from TLPD and calculated the percentage difference betwee first rank and second rank, first rank and third rank.
To summarise:
1st to 2nd rank difference
1. NaDa, 41.12%, Feb 2004
2. NaDa, 38.62%, Dec 2003
3. NaDa, 37.53%, Mar 2004
4. iloveoov, 36.61%, Jan 2005
5. iloveoov, 34.01%, Dec 2005
6. BoxeR, 31.58%, Jan 2002
7. NaDa, 31.06%, Jan 2004
8. iloveoov, 31.05%, Nov 2005
9. BoxeR, 29.28%, Oct 2002
10. sAviOr, 29.02%, Jul 2007
...
12. Jaedong, 28.45%, Aug 2009
1st to 3rd rank difference
1. sAviOr, 92.19%, Mar 2007
2. NaDa, 79.62%, Dec 2003
3. NaDa, 79.55%, Feb 2004
4. NaDa, 70.89%, Mar 2004
5. NaDa, 68.72%, Jan 2004
6. sAviOr, 67.86%, Apr 2007
7. sAviOr, 62.40%, May 2007
8. sAviOr, 59.54%, Jun 2007
9. NaDa, 56.34%, Apr 2004
10. Jaedong, 55.90%, Aug 2009
...
16. BoxeR, 48.21%, Dec 2002
...
26. iloveoov, 39.71%, Feb 2005
For full image see inside spoiler - it's pretty big.

Edit: calculating the standard deviation from the average of the top 30 is probably a more accurate measure, but will require more time. If someone could send me the database, the analysis would take a lot less time.

see inside the spoiler tag. but to answer your question: Bisu is not even close!
|
Cool write up. Wow Savoir had 92% more points than thrid place? Just shows how close everyone is right now (Bisu, JD, Flash, effort, maybe even iris) with JD's points only 28% more than thrid
|
JD has 56% more than the third place
|
oh man it's so cool how JD/flash/bisu/stork have been trading #1 KESPA for so long with each other (almost 2 years!).

Bisu was never a "dominant" number 1. For all of the months where he was KESPA number 1, he was narrowly trading spots with Stork.

Holy shit 92.19% for savior?
That's ridiculous...

Does any one know the reason why Boxer's points jumped from 2398 in Jan-03 to 921.5 in Feb-03?

Wow.... bonjwa...... but yea, JD isn't close to bonjwa yet imo, either we see JD dominant for a long period of times as well as winning of individual leagues and such, can we see him bonjwa....
Of course beating Bisu and Flash up many many times works too.... but not like a close record...
|
Cool beans, but I think the domination over the 2nd position means a lot more than domination over the 3rd. In Mar 2007 Savior and Nada were just the best players around, period. IMO these numbers reflect different eras and shouldn't really impact the Jaedong bonjwa debate (although I'm sure people will try to use this to hold off the inevitable).

This is an excellent set of stats. Really puts Jaedong's 3k in perspective with the other great gamers.
|
just shows how fierce the competition is nowadays and that no one can really pull ahead..
NaDa was just big <3
best ever..
|
if jaedong wins both individual leagues, he'll pull ahead by so much, he'll definitely be as dominant as, and in fact, probably more dominant than NaDa and sAviOr from a KeSPA ranking perspective. Two individual league is 1k points i think? That means he'll be over 4k points and bisu still around 2500, and the third place will still be around 2000.
|
What is the exact explanation of how the percentages are calculated? And is the data selective on certain games or unbiased on date/games
|

The percentage is just (1st place player divided by 2nd place player -1) * 100%.
|
good job, pretty interesting stats
