Mad Robin/Season 19

The buttons for Season 19 were chosen from these buttons which had overall winning percentages (at the time, on the old or new site, depending) in the 60% - 67% range, and which each have a Turbo Swing die:


 * : (6) (8) (8) (10) (1/30)!
 * : (6) (6) p(10) (12) (X)! +g(8)
 * : H(6) f(8) s(12) B(Y) g(Z)!
 * : (8) s(9) p(10) (Z)! `(2) `(3) +(6)
 * : t(4) (8) sz(16) (20) (V)? p(X)!
 * : p(3) (6,6) d(8) tzn(16) (S)!
 * : (8) (10) (10) (12) pzs(V)!
 * : (4) z(4,4) s(8,8) p(16) (1/24)!

Preference lists
Buttons are assigned by a least-squares method, such that the sum of the squares of the preference rankings of the buttons is minimized (1 point for first choice, 4 points for second, etc).

Everybody loves zaph! Five people's first choice? That might be a record. And Michigan, who's the second choice of four of those five -- and the fifth has the only other first choice (Pain) listed second, so only *three* buttons in the collective top two! Oy. Luckily, the third choices are a bit more diverse, so it's two firsts, a second, and three thirds, could've been a lot worse. (There were six equivalent allocations, so I rolled a die to pick one.)

33 total points.

Matches
Each game is listed twice, once in each player's row; the scores in the row for the player, and the background color (green for a win, red for a loss), are from that player's perspective.

Standings
The standings are determined by percentage of games won, with ties broken by head-to-head results (among the tied players), or total percentage of rounds won.

Five buttons in the collective top two, but three of them (grayhaw, Pain, and zaph) are first and second for all but one player. There's a bunch of third choices, but so much overlap between firsts and seconds that the best we can do is two firsts, two seconds, and two thirds.

With four unique first picks, and six buttons in the collective top two, can everyone get their first or second choice? Yes, but only with three firsts and three seconds, because giving four people their first choice would sink one of the other two to third or fourth.

Four unique first picks, and in the two pairs who overlapped, one of the pair had a second choice that didn't overlap with anyone, so that's four firsts and two seconds.

The "pop" column is an approximation of each button's popularity: The score is the sum of of the squares of the inverse of the positions times the number of people who put them in that position, so 64 points for each person who put them first, 49 points for each second, 36 points for each third, and so on, and higher numbers mean more popular. The numbered columns are how many people put them in those positions.
