it is computerized... but most likely a first-round exit won't hurt anyone too badly-- unless it is replacing a really good run from 10 seasons ago, and even then it isn't going to kill you. PIT and no postseasons hurt a lot more.
I am changing the formula slightly this time, too, to give more credit to all 10 most recent seasons... The current formula wipes out first-round exits after 8 seasons, but I am going to make it so that you get at least one point for all 10 seasons for making the NT-- just to slightly strengthen the reward for consistency and longevity. PIT will increase, too, but (probably-- havent decided exactly yet) still will fall out sooner than NT.
Probably will not change much in the rankings at all, but will make my job easier and I think if it is a 10-year system, then all 10 seasons should be rewarded (currently you only get points for 10 seasons back if you make the Sweet 16 or further-- bad design by me in the first place, but I have been too lazy to change it until now).

appreciate it jj, but i think it is under control-- not really that complicated after it is set up the first time.

The number on the far right is where the team would have been ranked on the previous scale-- E. Oregon and Worcester St. got beaten down for missing like 3 or 4 postseasons entirely at the beginning of the current 10-year period.
I cannot make the display work showing total points... but there are ties between Chicago-Arcadia (jj couldn't keep taz out of the top 3), Connecticut-Becker, Cabrini-Wisc Oshkosh, Pacific-College of NJ, SUNYM-Baldwin-Wallace, New England-Mount Ida, and CSU Eastbay-Sul Ross-John Carroll.
New to the list: Johns Hopkins, New England, Westminster, CSU Eastbay, Keuka, Ramapo, & Manhattanville.
Falling off the list were: Muhlenberg, Manchester, Maine Presque Isle, Gustavus Adolphus, Goucher, Greenville, Dubuque, Dickinson, & Colorado.
In danger for next season are: Becker, Medaille, La Roche, Macmurray, Alvernia, Wisconsin Oshkosh, College of NJ, Wesleyan, Baldwin-Wallace, SUNYM, Albion, New England, John Carroll, Sul Ross St, Keuka, & Ramapo.
Possible additions for next season: Carthage, Hood, Juniata, Kalamazoo, Maine Presque Isle, Manchester, Maranatha Baptist, Marywood, Plattsburgh St, Rivier, St Lawrence, St Norbert, & Texas Lutheran.

hey, i had to figure out some way to move up on my list... I sure cannot do it in the postseason ;)

obviously, your position was crushed by the change-- now that I look more closely, Worcester St has made 6 of the last 10 postseasons, with only one huge run. I feel like 16th is about right. If it makes you feel any better, the top 9 teams have only missed 3 postseasons between them, none more than 1. And the next 2 seasons you will likely remove 2 misses, so that will help too.

I'm curious why we dropped from 11th to 17th after an Elite 8. Apparently its Final 4 or bust in Rocky Mount, though, since my prestige dropped to A as well..

because I re-formulated, to give credit to teams for consistently making the tourney throughout the 10-year period I track. So, you have had 5 misses in the last 10 seasons-- tough to say that is a top-ten team, even though your recent success has been great. You would have been 6th under the old system.
