Popcorn, Gauntlet and Scramble formats use win percentage to crown a winner. This is a player's total wins divided by the total number of games. If a player is active for a round, but doesn't draw a matchup, their win percentage isn't affected. However, if a player shows up late or leaves early, they get penalized. If you have an odd number of players, some players may get one less game. Win percentage normalizes this in the standings. Up & Down the River, Claim the Throne and Cream of the Crop use a point system instead. Every win earns the player points in the standings. Wins on more competitive courts are worth more points. We use win percentage as the primary factor to crown winners.
