Attached is my document....
My games back for the division is calculated correctly, but I can't figure out the wild card games back...
I feel like I'm really close, but I just can't get it. See the attached document for my formulas. My desired result is in the far right column. Thank you!!
Edit: I apologize for not providing context and explanation... wasn't aware this was required when posting a excel workbook. As for the problem, I'm trying to get the games back for a wild card team based on MLB record results. My columns are the following:
Name: Team name
Wins: Actual wins
Losses: Actual Losses
Division: Team Division
League: Team League
Win %: Win % based on record
Division Rank: Formula to calculate where the team ranks in the division using a COUNTIFS function
WC Help: If a team is not leading a division (doesn't have a 1 in the Division Rank), then this fills with a "YES", otherwise fills with "-"
WC Rank: Uses a COUNTIFS function to give a rank of where teams stand based on win% compared to all non-division winners split up by league (AL and NL have their own Wild Card)
Division Games Back: Uses MAX and MIN with nested IF statements to calculate the games back of everyone behind their division leader
WC Games Back (DESIRED RESULT): Looking to calculate the games back of everyone behind the top two teams not leading a division (Teams with a "YES" in the WC Rank Column) split up by AL and NL leagues... the top 2 teams in the WC ranking (if they have a 1 or a 2 in the WC Rank Column) will have a "+" and however many games they are above the 3rd place team, whereas everyone from 3-15 rank in the league will show how many games back they are behind the 2nd ranked team in the Wild Card
