Thats only counting tournaments they won money in? Not really reliable, even though it is good work

It's going by TLPD games though, and most people don't have a TLPD page.
Did you ever say Yes to a single joy?

Is there any way to quickly mine the games played and tournaments joined data from TLPD or do I have to do it one by one? T_T

Edit: I assume "Leagues played" in TLPD can be used for tournaments joined?

Edit2: Probably not, because it includes Up/Downs and Code A. Or should those count as separate tournaments from Code S? Since a Code S seed is technically assured prize money for next season.

Interesting concept.
Judging from Nestea's earning per game, one can say that Nestea either makes it real far in a tournament or just gets knocked out of a tournament really early.


Not really it's just because Nestea doesn't play in very many tournaments.

I think it's interesting to keep him there. Despite losing so often and not doing anything after season 1, he still made quite a bit of money and didn't have to work for it much (which is great since he was probably drunk a lot apparently). He's just there for reference and because I find it funny.


Maybe a better idea is to set a certain threshold of games played, i.e., only include players with 200+ games played.

Then you end up with everyone who's ever made it out of the MLG open bracket on your list.

No it would include most of established pros in the scene. People who just makes it out of some qualifiers without actually winning stuff won't make it to the list.

The only thing that should matters is the total amount of earnings. Progamers will almost always do worse when they play a high frequency of games. Travelling time, lack of practice, revealing of strats, stamina issues. It really depends on the preferences of the player himself, whether he wants to play a tournament with more preparation time and prize money or just many smaller-scale tournaments. This ranking is not indicative of one's achievement but it can tell us a lot on what type of tournament schedule players prefer.

Did you only do offline tournaments, or did you do all tournaments someone has competed in?

the funny thing about polt is the fact, that the super tournament had the biggest prize pool.

TLPD includes online tournies and that's the data I used. Too difficult to read through each tournie and segregate each type

Since it averages and we won't ever have a true bonjwa (at least until a year or two after LotV stabilizes), FruitDealer is probably going to continue to dominate a table like this, seeing as how he's not playing anymore lol. Players getting close to his EPG with such robust percentages are really interesting though!

It's a cool idea but I don't really like this kind of measurement because it really holds no merit in terms of accomplishment/skill. I mean, think of Leenock, who has gone from open bracket to win an MLG TWICE. I find that more impressive than someone being seeded directly into groups, winning 5 matches, and then taking down the finals because of a terrible extended series system.

Neat idea, thanks for giving a different sight to earnings in SC2.
