Board » Sailonline Yacht Club » Important! Change to the rankings

Page: Previous 1 2 3 Next

Great! My vote is to apply the last 30 from now! in October -November I have made very good result so I can reach immediate the top 10 ;-)

Joke beside, I think is a fair system, I would propose to add a yearly raking counting the best 10 result overall.
Regards
I support the changes on ranking but I also think that lenght of the race is important too.. I would suggest that longer races should have different weight on ranking..

good ideas.
but i think there are still ways to weight the races, i hv posted a formula months ago...
rgds.

Could be done relatively easily. I suggest that we first get used to the new rankings before reviewing the situation in a few months.

Good day Incognito and Jakob ;)
there is a mistake in the SYC rankings that occurred overnight : the cancelled NZL eastern leg had come into the count , replacing the SYD Hobart that should not have been deleted from the count , as it was there yesterday . ( this based on new system described by Incognito ) . This error makes quite a difference in the delta points between myself and Jepsom , who now feels only one point still to haunt ..;) ..but it is 14 !!!! ....He will take my lead soon , but would prefer that he does so at the correct time ...LOLOL ...and believe he thinks the same ....thanks ....ciao ciao
PS : same concept applies of course to the weekend race championship ....;)
Yep, that is because for the server the race has started even though no one knows about it!
:D :D :D

Problem corrected. Rankings will be adjusted tomorrow morning as usual.
Thanks Incognito ;)
I beleieve there is more to it ....even if the NZL race was triggered in by the server , following the new concept, the SYD HOB should have not been deleted ....the server acted as before new system in place ...one in one out ....thanks for resolving so quickly .

ciao :)
That is normal. I am making a progressive change from 10 best out of last 15 to 10 best out of last 30. Currently, we are at 10 best out of last 17. This is all done manually.

When Round North Island was unexpectedly added to the SYC ranking, the 18th oldest race, Sydney Hobart, had to be dropped out of the ranking.

When Round North Island will start in a normal way, I will change the SYC ranking to 10 best out of last 18, which will keep Sydney-Hobart in the loop.

Regards,

Francois
Ciao ..... nothing changed ...the only solution is in my opinion to trim at 10 on 19 tonight , after the zilt starts . this will resurrect the syd hob , will keep the NZL waiting for that to take place , and include the zilt . Apologies Francois ....if you feel I am pestering you and this is too much hassle to correct , just forget me and forgive me .....

see you soon ....ciao ;)

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Sao Tomé to Tristan

The fifth race of our series of ocean voyages across the World’s convergence zones takes us back south down the Atlantic from Sao Tomé on the Equator to Tristan da Cunha on the edge of the Roaring Forties. It’s 2500nm; in your path the Benguela winds and current along the south west African coast, and behind that the St Helena High stretching halfway to South America. So, mind where you go in your Volvo OD65 version 3 (based on sampled real-life race data by kroppyer)!

New Ice Age 2026 - Neumayer Station to Scott Base


For a second-half of long-distance ice-boating, we take our DNs to Antarctica for a circumnavigation of that continent in two legs clockwise, in harmony with the prevailing winds (such as there are), beginning with a race from Germany’s Neumayer Station to New Zealand’s Scott Base. It’s about 3500nm, which, if there’s wind at all, should, well-wrapped in your DN-cockpits, not take you much more than five days. And remember: charts down here are unreliable – what is land and what is ice?!
