EPTIt's a pretty cool analysis regardless. I think it's quite useful in general and definitely shows where the average player in a league sits. I just think individual analysis of a player's SQ isn't going to show much information.

The replay-files are pretty much a sequential list of actions taken by the player. Build X, attackmove unit Y to location Z, etc... Without an actual SC2 client to interpret these actions, you can't determine how much resources a player has at a certain time. You can find out when someone orders a "build SCV" command, but not whether the command succeeds (enough money / supply). You can find out when someone orders a Helion to attackmove into a mineral line, but not how many SCVs it killed. | ||

My shorter games where I'm doing a strong timing push, I am able to keep my money very low and get an SQ in the 90s (when income was greater than 500. Drawn out macro games and my SQ drops to 60s. If I always pushed for shorter games, my average SQ would naturally increase. Mid-diamond player for reference. It's a pretty cool analysis regardless.

I just think individual analysis of a player's SQ isn't going to show much information. yeah this is totally what I was trying to write with this: On September 19 2011 20:15 nocfg wrote: I really like the idea of the SQ and I would like to see something similar added in the statistics after every game, so players can instantly see whether their macro was allright or not and whether they improved or not, but I have the feeling that firstly your SQformular is not perfect and secondly the scale you gave us is wrong too! When reading your scale-graph it says: masters average is about 72 GM average is like 82 and IdrA reaches 88 My problem with this is, I am a highplatin zerg in EU and my SQ in ladder is about 70-80 (which does not fit to my leagueplacement in the slightest) and when playing custom against AI I can reach 110 SQ (just tested and had a game with like 1560 income and 350 unspent). I of course do know that custom games against AI are huge differently than laddergames, but my experiment was only to show, that the formular is either not bringing in enough variables or lacks the right way of relativizing Income and Unspent. Other than that you did a great job with your thread and I for myself am using the SQ to check whether my macro struggled and to see improvements. So thank you for that! the SQformular is not perfect and does not scale at endgame-stages well enough | ||

There isn't much "innovation" or significant advancement into any research area that I can see here. All that really comes out is "Better players macro better and here is a decent scale to measure that on." You can see some correlation and gather some statistics. Not really an academic paper. | ||

Average of 74. If only I could improve my decision making, then I could push out of that damn Plat division I've been stuck in for 2 seasons.  I am significantly better than my division lets me show. When I'm practiced, I have beaten Masters players in a tournament setting, but when I hit the ladder I just can't seem to win. =/ | ||

90.6 93.7 98.1 Thats with a 1 rax expand and having 60-70 workers around 15-20 minutes in. These were all TvP's/TvT's though, perhaps vs a zerg that harasses more frequently my macro would slip, or if I was needing to make more careful pushes. I am fairly certain that it would slip further if I was doing drop harass and such too, but... I digress. I am testing how far I can go with basically pure macro though, should at least be an interesting test. | ||

Q1. How would you deal with the difference of data produced in games where a lot of harassment occurred and those without? Q2. It is commonly agreed that the platinum players of SEA / NA is much lower than KR, do you have any plan to include data from other servers as well? | ||
