If you don't have excel or openoffice installed (shame!) you can use this formula in Wolfram Alpha:
[35*(0.00137*x-log[e,u])+240, x=, u=]


you simply write your Average income after "x=" and your average unspent resources after "u=" so for example:

[35*(0.00137*x-log[e,u])+240, x=1970, u=959]

gives you ~94.1553

Amazing article, very enlightening. I was always under the impression -- as is most everyone -- that macro was a significant indicator of skill, but I had no idea the macro skill level separation each league was so regular. I really thought the difference would have been closer by about 50% progressively going up each league.

im betting that GM zerg that built 150drones was a ZvT BFH FTW LOL

You'd be able to macro like a pro if you'd spent this time playing instead of doing all this research :p
it is very very impressive though, and if i didnt have to be at work in 6 hours id read it lol

just how long did this take btw

got 78.59 / high master so it should be around 80 . Most of them looks like higher than 80, but it seems there is a few games were I was playing really bad ~60


Still really good read

This is awesome! I have quickly read (most of) the article, looked in a bit more detail at the graphs and formulas, and have immediately bookmarked it for future reference and simply because I enjoyed reading it so much. Good job and thanks! =)

They will no doubt do some very similar analysis, but with many more data points. That will enable them to perhaps find a better metric as well.

Just posted on the sc2gears thread that he should include this in his program, but he says that replay data doesn't include income rate or unspent resources.

Blizzard! Include these data in replay files so we can have SQ in sc2gears, please!!!11

Did you do this with SPSS? It's a very nice tool for statistics

Great work, a lot of the stuff here reminds me of my statistics lecture ^.^

That's pretty odd, that replay data doesn't have the stuff that's posted on the score screen (or an easy way to generate that data).
