Note: This is subject to change as I run more games. Plus, the ordering of ranks 9-13 bothers me, so I may tweak the scoring method to better match one's intuition of how they should be ranked.

(Means and standard deviations were rounded to three decimal digits. Also, Hyper should be HYPER but that messes up the highlighting. :P)
