What is a zRank?

When you choose to zRank ("Ziguana Rankings") specific categories, or those tailored to one of your league settings, Ziguana spits out a list of players. Ziguana ranks these players by their overall performance using our unique scoring system. The best player on this list gets a zRank of 1, the next best is ranked 2, and so on. The lower the zRank the better! [top]

What is a zScore?

What we refer to as a zScore in Ziguana rankings is simply the value a player gets for their performance in a specific category. The zScore makes it so comparing points to rebounds is comparing apples to apples (instead of those rotten oranges). The higher the zScore the better! [top]

What is a zTotal?

Each player gets a zTotal in our ranking system, which is no more than the sum of all their individual zScores. This number will change depending on which categories you choose. The higher the zTotal the better! We then use these zTotals to rank players, inveitbaly arriving us back at our zRanks... wasn't that easy?
