Can someone explain what the differences between these are?


Lifetime Average: 43.56 (22) N/A
Original Average: ---
Classic Average: ---
Modern Average: 42.83 (16) N/A
Pure Percentage Average: 45.49 (6) 78th

Points Above Average:
0.08 N/A

Is modern average after a certain period of time? What's Pure Percentag Average? And what do the numbers in the brackets mean?


Averages are calculated separately based on the scoring system at the time.
Lifetime : Total, from SC2k3 until now
Original: SC2k3 (When picking the wrong winner was worth 25-x)
Classic: SpC2k4-SC2k5 (45-2x)
Modern: SpC2k6-SC2k6 (45-x)
Pure Percentage: SC2k7 (50-x)

PAA is your average difference when compared to the average score for matches you predicted. (i.e. If you score 46 points and the average is 45 for that match, your PAA for the match is +1.00)

The numbers in the brackets are the number of matches you predicted under that scoring system. You need to have predicted half the matches under a scoring system to be ranked.
