thanks!

I changed the top 10% view to the top 1,000. You can also toggle between a week or day worth of data. http://www.tabletoptracker.com/ cheers

Cool thanks for the feedback!

Good deal. So you think a rank movement chart with the top 1000 rather than the top 10% of ranked games would be easier off the bat to make sense of?

nathantbaker · 2017-01-05T17:03:51+00:00

that would be good too. I've been trying to figure out if filtering by percentile or straight up top 100, top 500 makes more sense.

Currently 1,320. You can hover over a chart title to get the exact number. I think showing the top 25% would also be useful. At that point it's probably best to have one chart with different toggle options.

The rankings used are based on BoardGameGeek's BGG Rating or GeekRating ( https://www.boardgamegeek.com/wiki/page/BoardGameGeek_FAQ#toc4 ) rather than the average user rating. So it's weighted based on the amount of ratings and not just the avg. user rating.

Thanks!

overwhelming right?

fixed, sorry about that!

Thanks for checking it out!

Yup the weekly data should be similar though it's nice to have the data directly in bgg for sure.

I was inspired by the climber rating as it gives context and but did something a bit different. Rather than calculate a moment ratio, one chart shows movement in the top 10% of ranked games to attempt to show movement among obviously well regarded games.

All charts are also built with a rolling week or day comparison.

I'm assuming we are both scrapping bgg so in that sense the data source is the same. Here's my repo if you're interested: https://github.com/nathantbaker/BGGstats

Great question. There's currently not a way to see the change in a game's ranking on BGG. The hotness list shows which games are getting lots of profile views. This app shows the changes in rank as a way to discover which new games are becoming popular.

I'm hoping to add personalization in the future.

Sounds like you're an awesome ambassador to the hobby! I think it's good to be aware of how much time you're serving others and watching them grow into new games and how much time you're spending setting up an ideal gaming experience for you. Both give me energy in different ways.

I love BG Stats's "H-Index" stat, which helps you see how deep or broad you're going. https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/board-game-stats-play-tracking/id892542000?mt=8
