Why did you choose the average winning score? Historically there is a pretty significant difference between the distribution of winning scores and the distribution of losing scores (in terms of shape and mean/median) -- but isn't it enough to score the losing alliance's score + 1?

In a perfect world yes, but I like to build in a little bit of room for error. I find this statistic to be more accurate as a reliable goal. It balences out low outliers like aliances that score 0...
I have the feeling that the elite teams will be very very elite this year I can not wait to watch championships and posibilities of 3 30 point hangs.
