THX!!!

@ zero, I am trying to keep my laptop windows office free ;-)

looking the numbers:

if I got the system, to score 1000 you should win at least 15 races indipendent of the time frame, right?
found my new goal for the next years! lol

I found a mistake in the previous spreadsheet, so I've attached a corrected version. You can get 1000 by winning 10 of your first 15 races. Otherwise, you need to gradually increase your rating by winning. Depends on your starting rating for how long that takes.

Maybe we should We are thinking of including a decrease in the rating, which would make it difficult to stay at 1000, let alone get there.

Hi Scotsman - getting closer! I ran a few of the recent long races with the latest set of numbers and the results are credible. There is a definite bias toward slower boats, but I'm not sure if this is reflecting the method of handicapping or the nature of long races.

A very interesting summary to look at is corrected time vs handicap for any given race. Ideally you'd end up a with a flat "limit" with cruisers etc scattered above that. For leg 3 there is a positive slope. Interestingly, you can also see the 24 gaps that boats were able to transit the strait in - within each group the trend holds true. Good news for the system.

I'll start processing results on the basis of my previous posts.

Hmmm, any chance of sending the results for the recent races like you did before? We have those up to #448 25 Feb 2012.

Any thoughts on how to host the results or the data? We can continue with this thread for now but at some stage the results should go somewhere more obvious.

I've analysed the ratings for the race #449. See attached. This spreadsheet includes updated rating and corrected results.

New SOLers can have very low ratings as they have not completed many races. This seems to skew the results. We may need to give them a higher starting rating which is more realistic until they have completed a few races.

Here are the next two race results. Whilst this is working ok, could do with some programming advice on how to improve it. Bit clumsy at the moment.

Sinbad by Balloon 2025 - Baia de l'Oiseau to Carnarvon


How ever shall I return to report with clarity to my Great Sultan – asked Sinbad. It needs be told this island and all its fables shall be expunged from the annals of every thousand and one night. The wind howls – and sun be none (it’s Winter, Sin’bro, ed.) – and all days from the west, but let’s launch anyway and see if we can work our SOL Balloon north as the days pass aiming for Asthralaya, where The Mahabharata tells the ancients once tested mighty weapons, about a quarter and a million qasbah away (2500nm, ed.), perhaps one month.
