Rankings Glitched & How to Figure Out Your True Rank: It is obvious that the rankings are glitched out showing multiples of 3. A good number of us know this isn't the first time that this has happened. Usually this happens after a Thursday night game which isn't a huge deal breaker since the ranks at that time aren't finalized for the NFL week until the last game played on Monday night. This being the first time where the glitch has happened after Monday night's game I'm guessing a lot of people are angry not knowing their true rank. It is common that despite our complaints on the board about this glitch the Yahoo pick'em dev team won't bother fixing it nor communicate anything about fixing it. The only thing I can help is by telling anyone reading this is how to figure out your true rank. Add 2 to your listed glitch rank and then divide by 3. For example if your glitched rank is 295 then your true rank is (295+2)/3 = 297/3 = 99. True rank for 295 is actually 99. As for the percentile percentage, that I can not calculate out due to lack of data. Basically all the ranking boards are listing the top 17 because of the multiples of 3 glitch which makes it tough to get an accurate pool of data. Also, I would have to do extra work by calculating out true ranks first for 85 ranking boards. That is not something I want to waste my time doing. Hopefully, at some point this glitch will get fixed before Thursday (doubtful) otherwise I probably won't be releasing my weekly stats post for Week 9.
TLDR version: Everyone probably angry about glitch. To figure out your true rank: (Glitch rank number + 2) and divide that by 3.
