Tournaments Won by Banned Players - Stats

I was going over my tournament record (😞) and came up with an interesting statistic. I have finished 27 tournaments while I've been on RHP, all opens or high bandeds. 11 have been won by players who have been banned or 40.7%. I was wondering if other players who played primarily in opens have the same type of numbers.

are you hoping for some retroactive wins?

Harsh comment, but interesting statistic. I think the number of banned, high-rated players have made a mockery of the clan scoring system, the clan leagues and the tournaments and I am sure there are more bannings to come.

This makes me wonder if a percentage like this equals to banded tournaments with winners that are 'way out' of the band. I have a feeling, athough no wisdom, that we will get over that 40% easily...

I've played in 20 completed open tournaments, 2 of which were won by players who were subsequenly banned, ie 10%.

Small sample group, but 4 from 7 open tournaments for what its worth.

I joined a sub 1250 comp when I first joined. An engine won that one, funnily enough.

Meman and fckallie accounted for all 5 of the tournies won by engines, that I took part in.

But you have chances of winning the K-duel tournament. That one is open. Well, sort of.

(Ai... And I made it almost into the final. Just one darn sneeky move away, hoping Chakan would not notice)

Zero of Seven that have finished. Five of those were open.

Winners:
Alpha 6x6 2/22: David Tebb
Caligula Grouped Random: amoz
Otho Grouped Random: Dynamic09
Mini banded I 1900-1949: kwgoodwin
Let there be Hockey Again I: kwgoodwin
Grand Split Three Seven XII: XanthosNZ
Autumn 2005 Face Off Banded 1800-1999: XanthosNZ

I guess my timing has been good considering the number of those that contained cheaters that were banned before they won.

5 out of 15 equalling 33%
In my running through the tourneys I fell over this "Man vs Machines" one; Tournament 306

maybe there should be a tourney just for banned players

Harsh comment,

It was meant to sound sarcastic but really maybe that should be the case. If a player gets baned his/her tournament victories should go to the runner ups.

only 2 of my 19 finished tournaments have been banned players as winners (both Trackhead21). 10.5%

One thing I found interesting.. I was in a 1400-1499 banded tournament around when I first joined the site.. the final round was between 2 players over 2000, and the person over 2100 was the winner. (but.. that would be another thread............

Yeah, it bugs me that the rating displayed on a tournament page is always your current rating. They should finalize the rating shown when the round ends.

I have finished 14 tournaments, of which not one engine has won...which i believe is pretty great compared to the stats shown, 0% 🙂🙂

Quirine, David Tebb, Rosaline, and Peri dominated most of the 14 tournaments that have finished with me as a participant.
