ATH

I'm dying to know who has/had the highest number of ATH's (the ATATHH so to speak)? I know KingKoziol once had more than 1150 ATH's.
Not that it's of any relevance to the purposefulness of this site, nor that it should be a new purpose.
I'm just curious...

Quite the arcane question Snavelaar, and my response makes me worry about my priorities to have spent the time to look into this, especially given my own goal to keep my ATH value below 20.

Nonetheless, I'm quite confident we can be safe in assuming that the top two ATHs currently are KingKoziol & sven-the-man2 . Paging all the way thru to the end of Semi-Pro the leaders are:

LB ATH Name - Stats ATH, #Qualifying games played
1166 - KingKoziol ------- 922, 339
944 - sven-the-man2 - 941, 1701
669 - BoboLo ----------- 669, 2602
648 - you (Snavelaar) - 650, 1667
604 - Cris51 - - - - - - - - 557, 942
603 - Eoin -- -- -- -- -- -- 601, 902
427 - Veejay ------------- 329, 557

Since I noticed that the Stats ATH often differed from that on the Leaderboard, that led me to wonder why. I had noticed before that if my ATH had recently changed, that change seemed to be reflected on the leaderboard not after the hourly update, but rather as soon as I refresh the leaderboard page. So it appears that ATHs on the Leaderboard DO NOT UPDATE unless the player who owns it refreshes that page or perhaps his/her own profile. KingKoziol, Cris51, & Veejay have all been away from the site for multiple weeks.

Note therefore, that sven-the-man2 is actually the current ATH leader in spite of the Leaderboard's suggestion otherwise.

KingKoziol is unique in having far more ATHs than qualified games played, so it's a sure bet the only others who may come close in ATH are at least Pros with 200 qualifying games played. Now whether some of our other current leaders may have had a higher earlier peak, I could not say, but I suspect that such a high number can only be achieved by specifically looking to play lots of little played, and hence non-qualifying games.

Among the Semi-Pros, only one had an ATH approaching, and at one time significantly higher than the number of qualifying games played.

190 Vadrigaar --------- 143, 148

So somebody out there, I need you to go to my ATHs page, and beat me on a few of these to get that menacing + off of my Player Ranking label. ;-)
