Thank you, the following seems to have worked -

Last question please - how to run the query for all users?
I know I could use the FOR-loop from PL/PgSQL, but is there also a pure SQL
way?
How to refer to the outside "uid" from inside the CTE in the query below?
WITH diffs AS (
SELECT
gid,
uid,
played - LAG(played) OVER(PAR
And I should better change the avg_time column from TEXT to TIMESTAMPTZ
(and use TO_CHAR on it later down the road) so that I can compare my players

That would qualify as "somewhere else" - as would a simple subquery in FR
Unfortunately, I don't understand your advice, David -
