Go to Post Failure is in my eyes, the key to success. If you can deal with failure, look it in the eye, and conquer it, the hard stuff won't really intimidate you any more...and you can only get better. - Andy Grady [more]

Don't you expect a lot of zeroes in there because for one reason or another the team was asked to do something else that round (run gears for example)?

I felt that median was a better number for my thought experiment because it gives a higher number than mean with all perhaps 1/3rd of the scores being zeroes due to nobody else in the match that can effectively run gears.

That said, I suppose that Mean is probably about as good as a metric and would be a lot easier to estimate.
