Discussion: Annoying favor to ask
in: iriharding; iriharding > 2011-10-08;
Don't bother with this unless it's easy.
I'm trying to find my dipper number for the sprint, as it was a good result for me. I saved my printouts entered my dipper number for the red and goat, but I overlooked the sprint, maybe it was not posted the day I entered my dipper number. Regardless, I don't have the printout and longer and it appears there's not way to ask attackpoint to cough up the number even though I did enter it for the red course. Can you see it on your end?
Also, I'll buy my own dipper next time we're doing an order -- let me know when that is. I'm not good at keeping records of all my printouts.
See you thursday!
Tom.. no problem I'll send you the number in an email (so no-one sees it and lays claim to your run )
Done: check your gmail ..
I think Tom just likes typing dipper [sic]...
Todd, please see my edited post above.
BTW, dibber is even better hehe
Darn.
If Tom claims his splits my AP ranking is gonna drop!
how many people have to claim splits for the ranking to calculate?.....
Can I disassociate my miserable performance on the sprint?
still unclaimed at 1328 hrs on Wed ... so I am opening this 10:48 on the sprint to the highest dibber .... no i mean bidder ... minimum opening bid $10 :- )
soooo...part of being ranked well is knowing when to claim and when to not....and convincing some reluctant others to claim their sub par performances to get five...looks like a system that encourages bribes......ha!...looks like my Minnigoat performance will fade into the background of a non event.........
Real men claim their splits.
Now if I could only get Shaun and Mike to claim theirs for
Adventure Run #1....
Do you think calling their manhood into question will work?
real men claim their splits every time (major bobbles or not) .
Getting mcarl to up his presence on AP is a challenge we should all take on. Todd you should pester him...
I am going to call out Kelly for not being a real man if she doesn't claim her Minigoat....Kevin also.......that would give me 5.......
Tom... look what chaos you have unleashed...
Goodness! I always knew there was a ranking system but I had no idea how it worked. Still don't I guess, but it's still cool that it exists. How can you even feel good about it when there's no way to see how much you've improved over a given amount of time? I wonder if I left my 2nd place at possum trot unclaimed. Oh no!
I will say the geeks have run wild to calculate "time lost" "cruising speed" "% pace slower than cruise speed" and ranking points.....looks pretty accurate...
I have to laugh at how much time and effort went into the formulas and statistical analysis went in to all this stuff....only in O.....
maybe I should crank up some of my very powerful statistical software I have at work and do some statistcial analysis on this ( is this Normal or Poisson or exponential type distribution we are dealing with ?)
oh boy....its like throwing gasoline on a fire......
So, my only first place finish will never count, as I am the only one that ran that event.... :-( I had a really mediocre run too, deserving of my first place award.
And meanwhile I'm just hopeful that no one else will claim splits on the last Night-O. Or maybe the next Night-O too. =/
We need someone to claim splits for the minigoat though.... Kelly.... Clark....
