Danny, you should know better than to save a plot as a jpeg. png, man, come on!

What's this "standard score"?

And when will you reveal who's who?

Ha! I thought a crappy jpeg would be intriguing. I'll use something better in the future as I get more analysis done.

Standard score (Z-score) is a statistical measure which I'm using to normalize disparate data types (wins, points, etc.)...you may have seen it in some of Barnwell's writing on Grantland. The nice thing is everything is converted into a value relative to the mean (although our sample size is too small to truly have a normal distribution, so there's that).
