About Spiel Stats

Where the data comes from

Most bonspiels arrive from scraped public sources (e.g. bonspieler.com) or from extractor scripts that turn bracket spreadsheets into a structured import. Admins review each import — including any player-name collisions — before it lands. Where end-by-end scores exist, they’re stored end by end so per-player stats (hammer conversion, steals, blanks) compute correctly.

Players, profiles, and claims

Almost every player in the database was scraped from a roster before they signed up. A user’s app account and their on-ice player record are separate things — connected via a one-time claim that an admin approves. After that, your career stats and the global record are the same record.

If you’re already in the archive, find yourselfand submit a claim. If you aren’t, sign up and an admin can add a record for you.

Stats freshness

Career stats are computed from raw games and ends into a materialized view that refreshes after each import. The exact “current as of” timestamp shows up under each set of stats. Time-windowed views (last season, last 12 months) are on the roadmap.

A note on small samples

A 100% win rate from 2 games doesn’t mean the same thing as one from 200. Leaderboards default to a minimum-games threshold, and any player profile with fewer than 20 tracked games gets a “Small sample” badge.
