While I was out of town for a couple of day, Rashad noted in the comments that PAWSPERM is not going to be read as PAWS-PERM, but PAW-SPERM. And of course that would be bad. So we need a new name for per minute PAWS (Position Adjusted Win Score). The candidates are
PAWS/M
PPM
PAWSperM
PAWM
Please let me know what you think. I am definitely open to suggestions.

I don’t see how you could have a better acronym for a shooting stat than PAWSPERM.

i like PAWM, i agree that PPM is already used, and i think the shorter the acronym the better. shortening the term is the point after all….

PAWS/M
Succinct.
Understandable.
No bodily fluids.

I still think PAWSPERM is the best. Because it has possible dirty connotations makes it even better…
