Player results and statistics
Most home games keep a leaderboard in a spreadsheet that somebody updates when they remember to. UHT keeps one for you: when a tournament is finished, each player's result is written to their record, and it stays there after the tournament itself is long gone.
There is nothing to switch on and nothing to fill in.
What gets recorded, and when
The moment a tournament is finished, UHT stores one line per player:
| Recorded | From |
|---|---|
| Finish place, and the size of the field | The final standings |
| Buy-in total | Buy-in, re-entries, rebuys and add-ons, each at the full price paid, rake included |
| Winnings | Prize money and bounties, listed separately, summed as Won |
| Eliminations | How many players that player knocked out — zero throughout when the tournament ran with Track Knockouts off |
| Type | Bounty when the tournament tracked bounties, otherwise Standard |
| When it was played | The finish date |
A few conditions apply:
- You have to be signed in and the tournament has to be saved on the server. A local-only tournament run without an account leaves no record.
- The tournament needs standings. A tournament run in the simple mode, without individual players, has nothing to record.
- A non-monetary prize distribution records places and eliminations but no money.
Un-finishing a tournament withdraws its results again, and finishing it a second time replaces them. Correcting a mistake in the standings is therefore just a matter of finishing the tournament again.
You can also correct it without reopening the tournament: edit the event log from the final standings dialog, and UHT compares the outcome before and after. If it moved, it shows you what changed and asks whether the player accounts should be brought in line — see Correcting a finished tournament. Nothing is rewritten behind your back; declining leaves every account exactly as it was.
Finding a player
The results live with the player. Open Settings → My Content → Players:
1 — The Account tag marks a player who is linked to a UHT account.
Clicking a row opens their record.
Played tournaments
1 — Every column sorts, newest first by default. Sorting by Net is the quickest way to see whether somebody is up or down over the whole time you have known them.
2 — The place is shown against the size of the field: 2 / 18 reads very differently from 2 / 3. The top three places are marked with a colour, so a run of deep finishes is visible at a glance.
3 — The footer totals the whole history, not just the page: how many tournaments, how much went in, how much came back, and the difference.
Won is prize money and bounties together. Net is what is left after the buy-ins — green when the player is ahead, red when they are not.
This list shows the tournaments you hosted. If a player also plays elsewhere, those results are recorded against their own account, not against your copy of them.
Statistics
The second tab turns the same data into a picture.
1 — The two views. Places plots the finish position over time, first place at the top, so an improving player's line rises. It is the honest view of form: a good finish in a field of thirty and a good finish in a field of four look the same on a leaderboard and very different here.
2 — Four figures over the whole history:
| Card | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Biggest prize | The largest single payout, bounties included |
| Players eliminated | Total knockouts across all tournaments |
| ITM percentage | Share of tournaments that finished in the money |
| Average finish | Mean finishing position |
Win / Lose
Win / Lose replaces the places with money: winnings in green, buy-ins in red, summed per period. 1 — the grouping switch, Day, Month or Year. Day suits a player with a handful of results, year suits a regular of several seasons; month is a reasonable default for a monthly game.
Where the green line sits above the red one, the player was ahead over that period.
Players linked to an account
When somebody registers through a tournament lobby, UHT adds them to your player list as a linked player rather than a name you typed:
Name, email address and picture come from the player's own UHT profile and follow it — if they change their display name, your list changes with it. That also means you cannot edit them here; the fields are shown read-only.
Notes stay yours. They are private to you, editable as always, and never visible to the player.
Removing a linked player from your list removes the reference, not the account. If they register for another of your lobbies, the link is recreated. And if they delete their UHT account, the row stays behind as a plain player with the name and email as they were — the history does not disappear with the account.
What survives
Results are deliberately independent of the things they came from. Deleting the tournament, deleting the player from your list, or an account being closed does not remove the recorded results — they are the history of an evening that happened, and a finished tournament's numbers should not change because of housekeeping you did afterwards.
