Darts PPD, MPR and 3-Dart Average Explained
What your darts numbers mean: 3-dart and first-9 averages, points per dart, marks per round, checkouts and the LeagueOrbit darts rating.
The names and results shown are made up (the Maple Street Pool League is a demo organization).
Every leg scored on the darts board, in a league, a tournament or a casual match you keep, adds to your darts statistics in My stats (switch the Sport switch to Darts).
Worked examples
- Points per dart: a 501 leg finished in 18 darts is 501 ÷ 18 = 27.83 PPD.
- 3-dart average: the same leg is 27.83 × 3 = 83.5.
- Marks per round: 24 marks that counted in 30 darts is 10 rounds of three darts, so 24 ÷ 10 = 2.4 MPR.
301, 501 and 701
- 3-dart average: points scored for every three darts thrown.
- First 9: your average over the first nine darts of each leg.
- Points per dart (PPD): points scored divided by darts thrown.
- 100+, 140+ and 180s: visits of 100 or more, 140 or more, and the maximum.
- Checkout (visits): legs finished out of the visits that started on a finish you could reach.
- High out and best leg: your highest finish and your fewest darts in a won leg.
Zoomed picture: Darts in My stats: matches and legs won and lost, then the 3-dart average, points per dart, first-9 average, 100+, 140+, 180s, checkouts, highest checkout and best leg
Cricket
- Marks per round (MPR): marks that counted for every three darts. Darts on numbers already closed by everyone don't count.
- 5-mark and 9-mark rounds, white horses (three different numbers trebled in one round) and hat tricks (three bulls).
The darts rating
Your LeagueOrbit darts rating starts at 500 and moves with every counted leg in leagues and tournaments. Organizers can use it to place players, seed tournaments and work out spot points. It is separate from any pool rating.
