Percentiles/Relative Metrics

[GIMN]

Has anyone had any luck at finding ways of identifying relative metrics and pulling them through onto the player profile?  Every month I get the Worst Player/Team news items, and these include indicators of how that player (or team) are performing compared to the rest of the division.

These appear to be dynamic/adaptive to the position of the player, which suggests that the game is able to calculate this potentially for every stat available.

The panel is inbox content with best or worst performer news.xml, the code for the specific table is...umm...less than helpful:

<!--table for league rankings-->
<widget class="table" id="tabl" mode="fill_rows, stripe_rows" layout="-2,-6,40" auto_size_rows="false" row_height="25" default_sort_column="0">
  <list id="column_widget_properties">
    <record indx="0" style="semi_bold" alignment="centre" />
    <record indx="1" alignment="centre_y,left" />
    <record indx="2" colour="faded text" alignment="left, centre_y" />
  </list>
</widget>

I can't find anything defined in properties, either.  I think this is the only place I've seen this, and I should probably dig deeper to try and verify the data.  I'm wondering whether the %ages are actually just a rephrasing of "Ranking" from the Player Detailed Stats (e.g if a player is 9th in the league for assists, our of 100 eligible players, it will show as >90%).  A lot of assumptions on my behalf there, but if I'm right, maybe it's easier to try and manipulate the csRS id which is used in those pages.

<!-- Table showing the data-->
<widget class="object_list_table" id="stat" mode="stripe_rows" auto_size_rows="false" fixed_size_rows="false" row_spacing="0" should_force_refresh="true" row_height="50" fixed_row_height="18">

  <list id="column_table_properties">
    <!-- Ranking -->
    <record id="csRS" width="40" auto_hide_priority="1" left="5">
      <record id="widget_info" class="sortable_text" size="large" style="bold" alignment="left,centre_y"/>
    </record>
    <!--other columns also defined here-->
  </list>

  <list id="views">
    <!-- General stats -->
    <!-- Appearances -->
    <record id="0001">
      <!-- Appearances (1), Games Won (3), Games Lost (4) -->
      <record id="view" csRS="1" Ttea="1" Port="1" PTIf="1" Pnat="1" Page="1" csLS="1" POgw="1" POgl="1" />
    </record>
    <!--other views also defined here-->
  </list>
</widget>

That immediately screams hardcoded to me.

Sadly, I think you're right.  I'm hoping that miraculously someone else has already looked into it and found a loophole!  There might be a greater chance of winning the lottery.
