APBRmetrics

Hey everyone, posted about this in the 2017-2018 projections thread but want to avoid clobbering people's posts in there while soliciting feedback.

The site (http://wintotals.com) is built for NBA projections contests like the one that happens here each year. You make your projections, attach your picks to a league (or multiple) and compete against other entrants in that league.

I released it a few days ago in time for the start of the season so folks can input there projections while I layer on more and more features during the year, like in-season standings. So as you'll see its quite bare bones right now but does enough to get the contest going.

Since the site is in its very early stages I'm looking for feedback and suggestions on features, anything from how we calculate scoring to the layout itself.

Scoring: We plan to calculate ones score by summing the absolute values of the difference between "Real" wins and "Projected" wins, so that the entry closest to "0" at the end of the season is the winner.

If you want to join this year's ABPRmetrics contest, input the code: c4493d41 after you "Join A League"

Went to site. All I see is wood flooring. Nothing else.

Weird...what browser are you using?

Firefox on a Windows phone. Maybe it is "me"; but 3 visits, no change. Nothing at all appears on a Bing search.

Yeah, it's quite possible that your combo is unsupported. Try Chrome if you can.

Re: Bing ---> there was no time for SEO optimization, not expecting much organic traffic this year. Just trying to support folks that do this all manually right now.

I'm in.
It seems one can enter decimal fractions, too. I went ahead with whole integers, same as here.

Cool, yeah let's say integers only for this contest if that's the APBR standard.
