We have many thousands of players now who are established with millions of games played.
So here is the question. How does a fargo rating translate to a percentile rating of all players?
Take every established player and list them from bottom to top. Then divide the list into ten equal parts with the same number of players on each list. Just like you are going to have a tournament with ten divisions and the entire pool world with fargo ratings is entering.
Where do the ten divisions break? Is it linear or a bell curve? Or something else? Are the break points stable at this point where it will not change much as more games are played and continuing to use the entire data base of established players?
As I said in the title probably only Mike Page can answer this.
I think the answer will be interesting because I'm a numbers/statistics freak.
