HS Player Poll Results
Posted: Wed Jun 13, 2018 5:57 pm
So, I am really happy with the way this poll turned out, and I hope that this can be a tradition that continues in the future. In the interest of full disclosure, I received 32 non-spam, eligible ballots. I did not use the results from 2 of them because of either obvious bias or an obvious lack of research. In one case, I reached out the the email provided and the respondent agreed the ballot should be thrown out and in the other case the respondent did not provide an email and thus I made the executive decision to throw out the ballot. In addition, I have uploaded the raw response data here. The only edits I have made to that data are the removal of respondents' names, the correction of spelling errors in names, and the removal of nicknames, e.g. "Jas" became "Jaskaran."
The results from the 30 used ballots are as follows, each player received 40 points for being ranked 1st, 39 for being ranked 2nd, etc. and received no points if they did not appear on the ballot. Along with the total number of points, I have also reported each player's average ranking (in the ballots that ranked that player), the percentage of ballots that the player appeared on, the highest and lowest ranking each player received (again only considering ballots on which they were ranked), and the number of first place votes they received.
1. Clark Smith (Dublin Scioto), 1190 Points, Ranked in 100.0% of ballots, Average ranking 1.33, Median ranking 1, High: 1-Low: 6 (26 first place votes)

The above is computer output. I tried to check it as thoroughly as I could, but there is still the chance of an error. If you think I made a mistake, please PM me. Thank you to everyone who participated and congratulations to the Player Poll's Player of the Year Clark Smith as well as to everyone else that made it onto the rankings. I intend to either run this again next year or assist someone else in doing so, so if you have any feedback about how it was run either post it here or PM me.
Since the rankings were initially posted the following changes have been made:
Because of Find-and-Replace, Tejas Santanam was incorrectly referred to as Tejaskaran
One ballot incorrectly referred to Ethan Skinner as Ethan Davis
One ballot incorrectly listed Geoffrey Chen twice
School affiliations added
Median added
