Teams almost never crunching WCG have a big advantage in these 'increase' challenges opposite to teams with a basic frequent WCG-crunchers. Well, that's the whole point . The goal is to encourage and bring in NEW crunching. Rewarding crunchers already here is counter-productive to this kind of race/challenge.

Another late entry.
Still using the "standard" order. I am still fiddling with alternate ways of ordering the graphs. |

Good point about the graphs. I was working on the next race and was wondering what kind of nightmare I would be be prolonging another 61 days. As I would be having races start and end daily. So have delayed release until I can get a grip on this as well.
----------------------------------------So am thinking of what can be done, just need a few hours free to see how to simplify things. As we have a common problem. Oh, its always good to see Geo at work on this front. <salute>     [Edit 1 times, last edit by courine at Dec 7, 2010 11:56:05 PM] |

The standings in a % race are based on averaged production so the volatility should smooth out the longer the race runs. In this race the current leader's score is due to one day's returns. The team's score is decaying.
I think the challenge points grouped based on the baseline number ranges may be a semi-reasonable way to display the results. The number of groups doesn't seem to have "natural" groupings however. |

Another new entry. Welcome to the race! Cheers for pointing that out, geopsychic. Indeed it seems some teams have joined since start of the race, which is somewhat difficult to keep track of. So, now 74 teams on board, welcome to all! And more late entrants are also welcome of course!  |
