For those who don't know me, hi, I'm Matthew!   I am a former member of the Bluegrass Scrabble club who moved away and is now back, along with my wife, Wendy (who plays, too) and daughter, Abby (who Wendy says is too young to play at just shy of two years old). 

I kept stats like you see above for the Des Moines club where I played the last five years, and would love to do so for the Bluegrass Club.   They are designed just to be fun! - to help you see how you might be improving, whether by rating, average score per game or average bingos per game. 

BORING DETAIL NOTES:
I am using players' most recent NASPA ratings as starting points, since I just don't know how to start a whole group form scratch.   An asterisk next to a rating means it is "provisional".   Until any player with this type of rating has exceeded 12 games played (about one tournament's worth), opponents' ratings against him or her will not be affected.  Also, until a provisionally-rated player has gone over 50 games, he or she will get accelerated ratings changes. Whatever that player's usual rating change would be after playing on a Sunday, the change - whether up or down - gets magnified by an additional 50%.

Forgot one BORING DETAIL NOTE: The 13 and 50 games marks I mentioned are based on all-time NASPA games anyone has ever played. Right now, every player but Jim has played 50+ NASPA games each, so he is the only player with a provisional rating. Once his club games exceed 50, the club rating will be fully "established" (no longer provisional).
