I appreciate the extensive work that went into all of this.
Len one comment on your rankings. I agree with the idea that ranking is more relevant than % gain given the rather unique last 6 months or so in the market.
What might be more interesting though would be to rank people based on their deviations from the average % return for each contest rather than pure rank.
So if I am in 3 contests and the average returns are
20% 50% 30%
for a group average of 33%
And I returned 40% 60% 20%
for an average return of 40% than my relative average return is +7%.
