    I'm wondering if you take into account home track advantage? Has further research found it to matter? Because all of Hometown Throwdown was played at Rose City's practice space in front of a largely friends and family crowd (total seating between 200 and 300).

    Home track advantage is taken into account. If you have any other questions about the equation, you can reference the methodology.

    Home track advantage is not being considered for the Hometown Throwdown or any other tournament/special event. I try to take every human decision out of the equation as possible so making a blanket statement saying that all tournaments and special events are neutral keeps me from having to make a decision that isn't always going to be based on a whole lot of information. When you consider that a lot of tournaments aren't played in league's normal venues, are using sport court they don't normally use, withall the planning and stress that goes into hosting one of those events, playing on odd days or nights, and everything else going on that's out of the norm, it's hard not to see that this wouldn't necessarily be the same home track advantage that would come with a typical home game, if there's any at all.

    OK that's reasonable.
