Mad Robin/Season 13

    From Buttonmen Wiki

    As of Season 13, we decided to have the bottom division be variable sized, from 3 - 8 players, thus eliminating the need for anyone to be relegated to the waiting list and sit out a season.

    The buttons for Mad Robin Season 13 were chosen from these buttons who had winning percentages (based on the old site's stats) in the 49% - 51% range:


    • Buck: g(8) g(10) (12) (20) (X)
    • Echo:
    • Gil: (8) (8) p(8,8) (20) (X)
    • Honzo: (10) (12) f(20) (V) (X)
    • Hope: t(1) (2) t(4) (6) (Y)
    • Matt: z(8) (10) (10) z(10) (V)?
    • Nikolai: (20) (4/10) (4/12) (6/10) (6/20)
    • Tuxedo Mask: (6) (6) (10) (20) r(4) r(8) r(10) r(12) r(20)

    Division A[edit | edit source]

    Preference lists[edit | edit source]

    Buttons are assigned by a least-squares method, such that the sum of the squares of the preference rankings of the buttons is minimized (1 point for first choice, 4 points for second, etc).

    Player first second third fourth fifth sixth seventh eighth
    irilyth Echo Gil Tuxedo Mask Nikolai Buck Matt Honzo Hope
    glassonion Hope Gil Buck Tuxedo Mask Matt Echo Nikolai Honzo
    jl8e Hope Gil Nikolai Buck Honzo Echo Tuxedo Mask Matt
    devious Nikolai Hope Gil Buck Tuxedo Mask Matt Honzo Echo
    jimmosk Tuxedo Mask Gil Nikolai Matt Hope Buck Honzo Echo
    mcculloch Echo Matt Honzo Tuxedo Mask Hope Gil Buck Nikolai

    Six buttons in the collective top two, so everyone should get their first or second choice; with four different first-choice buttons, four firsts and two seconds (12 points) is our best case. devious and jimmosk have unique first choices, and mcculloch has a unique second choice; giving Matt to mcculloch then gives irilyth a unique first choice. That leaves Hope and Gil for jl8e and glassonion, and jl8e won the coinflip.

    12 total points.

    Matches[edit | edit source]

    Each game is listed twice, once in each player's row; the scores in the row for the player, and the background color (green for a win, red for a loss), are from that player's perspective.

    Standings[edit | edit source]

    The standings are determined by percentage of games won, with ties broken by head-to-head results (among the tied players), or total percentage of rounds won.

    Games
    W - L (%)
    Rounds

    mcculloch (Matt) 2 - 3 (40%) 11 - 9 (55%)
    devious (Nikolai) 1 - 4 (20%) 5 - 14 (26%)

    devious is relegated to Division B.

    Division B[edit | edit source]

    Preference lists[edit | edit source]

    Buttons are assigned by a least-squares method, such that the sum of the squares of the preference rankings of the buttons is minimized (1 point for first choice, 4 points for second, etc).

    Player first second third fourth fifth sixth seventh eighth
    alwayslurking Hope Buck Matt Tuxedo Mask Gil Honzo Nikolai Echo
    Limax Matt Tuxedo Mask Buck Hope Nikolai Honzo Echo Gil
    KermitTheBear Hope Echo Buck Gil Matt Honzo Nikolai Tuxedo Mask
    Ruckous Hope Matt Buck Tuxedo Mask Echo Gil Nikolai Honzo
    raymund Hope Gil Matt Buck Honzo Nikolai Tuxedo Mask Echo
    tetujin Matt Buck Echo Gil Tuxedo Mask Nikolai Honzo Hope

    Six buttons in the collective top two, so everyone should get their first or second choice; with only two different first-choice buttons, two firsts and four seconds (18 points) is our best case. Limax, KermitTheBear, and raymund have unique second choices, so they should get those. That leaves tetujin as the only person with Matt in their top two, and that leaves alwayslurking as the only person with Buck in their top two, and therefore Ruckous with Hope.

    18 total points.

    Ruckous (Hope) 3 - 2 (60%) 9 - 7 (56%)

    Limax (Tuxedo Mask) 3 - 2 (60%) 10 - 12 (45%)

    tetujin (Matt) 2 - 3 (40%) 11 - 11 (50%)
    KermitTheBear (Echo) 1 - 4 (20%) 6 - 14 (30%)

    Among alwayslurking, Limax, raymund, and Ruckous:

    • raymund and Ruckous are 2 - 1 head-to-head against the other three, and Ruckous beat raymund.
    • alwayslurking and Limax are 1 - 2 head-to-head against the other three, and Limax beat alwayslurking.

    Ruckous is promoted to Division A, and KermitTheBear is relegated to Division C.


    Division C[edit | edit source]

    Preference lists[edit | edit source]

    Buttons are assigned by a least-squares method, such that the sum of the squares of the preference rankings of the buttons is minimized (1 point for first choice, 4 points for second, etc).

    Player first second third fourth fifth sixth seventh eighth
    blackshadowshade Gil Matt Tuxedo Mask Hope Nikolai Echo Honzo Buck
    kaufman Matt Buck Gil Tuxedo Mask Nikolai Honzo Hope Echo
    tavella Echo Buck Matt Honzo Nikolai Hope Tuxedo Mask Gil
    Squiddhartha Honzo Matt Tuxedo Mask Buck Gil Echo Nikolai Hope
    nkmcalli Buck Matt Gil Hope Tuxedo Mask Honzo Nikolai Echo
    dudleypippin Echo Hope Matt Honzo Nikolai Buck Gil Tuxedo Mask

    Six buttons in the collective top two, so everyone should get their first or second choice; with five different first-choice buttons, five firsts and one second (9 points) is our best case. And indeed, giving their first choice to everyone with a unique first choice leaves tavella and dudleypippin, and dudleypippin has a unique second choice, so he gets Hope and tavella gets Echo.

    9 total points.

    Standings[edit | edit source]

    The standings are determined by percentage of games won, with ties broken by total percentage of rounds won.

    The "pop" column is an approximation of each button's popularity: The score is the sum of of the squares of the inverse of the positions times the number of people who put them in that position, so 64 points for each person who put them first, 49 points for each second, 36 points for each third, and so on, and higher numbers mean more popular. The numbered columns are how many people put them in those positions.
