About Allegionary
I love playing video games a lot. I currently own a laptop, an Xbox 360, a Nintendo DS and an iPod touch. I play all of these consoles and enjoy them all because of the diversity in them. I play my laptop for strategy games, my Xbox 360 for most genres, my DS for Pokemon (not much else on the DS), and my iPod for the simple yet addictive mini-games.
I also develop Android Apps. I have just started development and I am well on my way to fame and fortune (I hope) with the release of my first app. More details can be found at my blog: https://legionaryproductions.wordpress.com/
My favourite games are Warcraft III, League of Legends, Mass Effect 1 and 2, the Pokemon games and the Elder Scrolls series. I also enjoy shooters like Halo and the earlier Call of Duty games (before COD 5).
I also enjoy playing Hockey, reading a good book and watching movies and TV shows. One of my favourite book series is Rangers Apprentice and my favourite movies are the Star Wars movies (as shown by my profile picture) and the Lord of the Rings trilogy.

Hi, just curious what is break-even? cheers
Hi Rudy,
A break-even is used in fantasy leagues. It is the score that the person has to get in order to stay at the same price. So if a player gets below his break-even he goes down in price while if he gets higher than his break-even then his price goes up. Hopefully that helps! 🙂

Hi,
Awesome app works like a champion. I’ve been trying to figure out for a while now what the formula for the Dream Team is I figured out the Super Coach one no problem but cant seem to get close with the Dream Team.
Wondering if you wouldn’t mind letting me know what the formula is so I can put it in a spreadsheet for my whole team
Hi Aaron,
Glad you like the app 😀
Ok, this formula annoyed me to no end and I am pretty good at Maths. So after much trial and error I came up with a system that worked within a couple of points:
Magic Number = (Current – Last * 0.7435) / (3round * 0.2495)
However problems arose when the last price was greater than the current price so the number 0.7435 had to be changed to 0.741 when this happens.
Then to get the break-even:
(Current – ((Magic / 3) * Score1) – ((Magic / 3) * Score2)) / (Magic / 3)
Please tell me if this works as putting the brackets in the right place is vital.
Thanks,
Allegionary
Thanks Allegionary,
I got the same as you about 1 or 2 points off but that’s close enough for me. Thanks I also used and IF function so that allowed me to do a lot as well.
Used a few guinea pigs and it’s cool.
If you want me to send you the spreadsheets for both let me know
