Who actually keeps finishing in the top three — and who keeps going home with the sweets. Every quiz published on the site is counted — one venue on one night is one quiz — and each place is tallied into its own table: winners, second places, thirds, and last place, where the sweets are handed out. A separate list at the bottom ranks the longest podium streaks. Each list is a top 20, openable in full, and searching for your team finds every record it holds however far down a list that record sits.
Covering –
The first four tables rank teams by finishing place, so a team can appear in all four — plenty of teams have both won a night and finished bottom of another. The other places break ties, and level on finishes means level in the table. Every list shows its top 20, with a button under each table to open the rest of it out. Podium streaks now have their own list at the bottom.
Where the numbers come from and what the columns mean.
Hundreds of teams have a finish to their name, which is more than any one table can be read down, so each list is published as its top 20. Nothing is left out: Show all under a table opens the full list, and a search reaches a team's row whether or not the cut was hiding it. Where the twentieth row is level with the rows below it, the note under the table says how many teams share that mark, and the tie-breakers above decide which of them are shown.
The separate streak list ranks teams by Best, their longest run of consecutive podium finishes. Now shows their current run. Any finish outside the top three resets it; missing a quiz night does not.
A quiz is a single venue on a single night. The top three come from that night's final totals — base score plus any bonuses and penalties — exactly as the night's league tables page shows them.
Finishing bottom wins a packet of sweets, so the last row of the night gets a table of its own. It comes from the same final totals as the podium, counted from the other end. A quiz needs four teams for the sweets winner to be someone other than the team in third.
Names are matched however they were typed in on the night, ignoring capitals, and the spelling used most often is the one shown. Two different teams that picked the same name are counted as one.
The venue on each row is where that team has played most. Regulars who travel pick up a “+ more” tag, and searching a venue name pulls out everyone who calls it home.
