CallMeTheKing Ballot for 2025 Week 16 & Bowls
Ballot Type: Computer
Submitted: Dec. 8, 2025, 1 p.m.
Overall Rationale: ###### Winner/Loser Quicksort with Transitive Tiebreaks ###### - Build multisets of each team’s wins and losses and compare teams by counting wins within the current subset and losses within the current plus already-lower-ranked subsets; break ties by transitively expanding wins and losses up to 12 layers until #wins != #losses. - - Recursively partition teams into “winners” and “losers” based on those comparisons; the overall ranking is the winners’ ordering followed by the losers’ ordering at each recursion level. - - If a partition ends with all teams in one bucket, rerun that subset using only losses (and transitive losses) within the subset to force a split before continuing recursion. -
