In Response To: Scale of Open/Intermediaate Players (Jason Lee)

So the argument against GNU style error rates is that they can be misleading -- error rates for a single match are misleading anyway, for the reason I stated above and because there's a sample size problem!

Agreed. But if we are talking about aggregate numbers, is there any advantage to the gnubg method? I can't see that. Average gnubg error rates should correlate very strongly with average Snowie error rates, unless we are looking at players who are especially talented at avoiding or steering into forced decisions. If such players exist, gnubg error rates add bias that Snowie error rates don't have. What is their upside?
