The really cool thing in current version is that I really dont need anything to write about archetype names, except some rare names ("zoo", "jund"...). My algorythm is something like you offered, but more complicated (closer to regression methods). Cool idea about crowd sourcing... but I've never written any web services before, so it'll take a long time to create now I'm trying to rewrite my C# code on python and let it all work on a shellmix.com server... kinda tough
p.s. I'm not outputting last info because of fails in some archetypes. Approximate deviation is got, the precise answers will be after crowd help will be here
Could we get an additional pie chart showing only 1st place finishes by archetype, and then a bar chart showing first place finishes as a percentage of representation for the top 10 decks or so?
For example, Jund was represented 137 times, and has 24 1st place finishes. (17.5%)
Affinity, however, was represented 105 times, and has 34 1st place finishes. (33%)
And, should it be sorted by percentage of 4-0's, or by total number of 4-0's?
Under RUg Storm Pyro, your "Most unusual decklist" is a stock Hive Mind deck.
It makes me wonder what other archetypes you missed.
Well! I'll think how to deal with it.
I would change up the colors. I can't tell if Pod is 30% of the meta, or if Other is.
I've never used google charts before, and those charts were made last night in 30 minutes So I'll surely make normal coloring, but don't know how fast - maybe in a day or two...
What criteria does it use to define each Archtype? And how does it handle overlap?
Hm... Initially it presumes there is no any archetypes. Then for each given deck check, if it seems "like a deck from the archetype" for each archetype. If it not, create new archetype.
After all archetypes created, go once more and make statistics on using any colors and some "corner" cards - and "humanify" names from "Archetype 105" to "RU Storm". If there is overlap, or a deck belongs to several arhcetypes there could be many things... New archetype, or, as in case with "Hive Mind", erroneous archetype. I'm working on the algorythm, so if you see any errors in deck archetypes - please write here

Notice that all names and colors are evalueted automatically, so don't be scared by "Human Wizard" decks
p.s. ANY critics and suggestions are applicatable
