After some prompting, think it may be good to start looking at some of the player who are in contention with becoming a finalist/already are.
Shall be interesting.
Starting off with Martin May:
Wins: 8
Current Seed: 1
Points: 839 (104.9 per game)
Maxes: 61/120 (51%)
Letters Maximums: 34 /80 (43%)
Badged Words:(7+ length maxes not previously submitted as a max by a contestant on Countdown before at time of broadcast):5
Medalled Words: (7+ length maxes not previously submitted as a max by a contestant or DC on CD before at time of broadcast): 1
Badged Words: Taproots, Sidearms, Fistula (probably taken from the game before when it was done as a declaration by DC

Medalled Words: Defrosts
Numbers Maximums: 21/32 (66%)
6S: 0/5
1L: 12/12 (100%)
2L: 9/12 (75%)
3L: 1/3 (33%)
4L; N/A
Conundrum Count: 6/8 (75%)
6 Won, 0 Lost, 2 Unsolved
So, Martin is #1 at the moment by a clear point margin, and I think he does outclass most of those below him in many areas. His numbers, although, may seem to be polar opposites, in terms of the max count for his 6S and 1L, but in reality, his 6S have been tricky, and he has been generally very close with some good solves. His letters are strong, but what one can infer from these stats is that he is an incredibly strong player, who has shown great consistency throughout, and would be a solid bet for lifting up the RWM Trophy in December.
