Avg. Finish Miscalculation
Posted: Sat Mar 14, 2009 2:48 pm
Although PT3 calculates individual buy-in avg finish, it miscalculates the overall average finish when there are two or more different buy-ins. For example:
Buy-In Tournaments Avg Players Avg Finish 1st Place 2nd Place 3rd Place
$30.00 1 2 1 1 0 0
$20.00 1 2 1 1 0 0
$5.00 12 2 1.67 4 8 0
3 Buy-In(s) 14 2 1.22 6 8 0
In the above example PT3 calculates the Avg Finish for the 3 buy-ins as 1.22. The actual average finish for the 3 buy-ins should be 1.57 (or at least that is what PT2 would have calculated).
