Step up and test your progaming knowledge! A lot of things in TLPD have been changing, so I thought I'd show off some of the interesting facts that are encapsulated in it without just making a general boring post. The questions add up to a 105* pt value if you want to see how you did % wise, and I tried to order them from easiest to hardest (not in exact order, just in general). Good luck!

BoxeR for becoming the 7th member of the 2300 club not too long ago!
The four bonjwas are fittingly all members of the 2300 club now! This isn't something I was consciously working towards when adding games, but I'm pleasantly surprised BoxeR is in the ranks of the ELO elite.

Anyway, some interesting trivia there.
There were a lot of old tournaments that weren't in TLPD before (iTV leagues 1-6, Game-Q Starleagues 1-3, 2001 WCG, etc.). There's still more to be added, so the peaks may change even more, but for now that's why they're > 2300 all of the sudden.

could you guesstimate whether or not anybody would be able to surpass bisu's peak after all additions?

oh man boxer just now making over 2300 totally threw me off. not fair >.<
So, how did Boxer suddenly make 2300? Were you adding games in late history that Boxer won and did those games boost him into the 2300 club? Or did you rescale the ELO?

There's actually one womens starleague in TLPD, but it was the only one I could find results for. I know there were a few iTV Womens leagues, but there's no records of them

The ELO calculations are all the same, it's just a lot of old games that were added that bumped his ELO. Mainly the 2001 WCG games, where he went undefeated on the way to the gold, put him over the top.

I Got a total of 17 points. However, I consider that being a perfect score because 14 of those points are from question 3, I GOT ALL OF THEM CORRECT!!! The other 3 were from pro-girl games, January, Jongmi and tossgirl. <3
