Prediction Games / Re: 2025 Championship predicti...
Last post by HerrNove - Today at 02:22:57 AM
I don't think Argammon can mathematically win in August, even with a 12-0, 12-0 on Duplode in this and the next race. A win in September is instead highly likely since the three worst results are discarded.

As for me, I am 8th and I aim to end 6th, with the help of the discard rule to ignore the low scores from season start. I aim to leave the Amateur league at the end of the season, and for this goal it will probably be necessary to cash in the 3 XPs for the global top 6.

I understand that my good results are also related to the relaxed attitude of some of my rivals, so much will depend on their dedication and on how many other PG tracks I'll have to suffer. But in every track I will aim to end 5th - 7th, depending on how many rivals will put in the time to create good laps.

That said, my predictions:

1. Argammon
2. Duplode
3. MiDiaN
4. KyLiE
5. Alan Rotoi
6. HerrNove
7. Frieshansen
8. Spoonboy
9. Overdrijf

Quote from: Cas on June 29, 2025, 05:50:10 PMThe gaps at 2000 and 1500 call my attention. They're very noticeable!

Indeed! Glancing further back in time, it looks like the density is lower around these values for most of the competition history -- perhaps I should try quantifying that. In the case of 1500, I wonder if it being the starting value for the ratings introduces some kind of "repulsion" (and if such an effect can also be observed in Elo-like rankings elsewhere).

Competition 2025 / Re: Guest tracks 2025

Quote from: Mortimer Macmire on June 29, 2025, 10:16:39 PMIf no one else want's to, I can give zct293 a try. The only problem is that the last track I made was in the 90's and I was around 10 years old, so you can see that the lack of experience can be a bit of a problem.

Unless we want a track where the winner is the person who can launch the car the highest in the air. I remember that that was my area of expertise in creating tracks in those times  ;) !

Awesome, thanks Mortimer! Calendar updated  :)

Thanks @alanrotoi , just started building the terrain around a idea I have. I think you are all gonna like or even recognize the overlapping theme. Now hopefully I can also make the track somewhat exciting, but I guess I still have few months to develop my track building skills  ;) !

Season's chat - R4K / Re: 2025-07 - Thirteen minutes...

Quote from: Cas on June 29, 2025, 05:56:41 PMHi, guys. I've already uploaded the track for next month. It'll automatically become active when July starts (UTC), but you can already take a look at the track. We'll be featuring the Baronetti Hexa this time  8) It's the first time we have it in an official R4K race! Hope to see you guys there! :)

Love the Hexa ( except when it crashed my SuperSight mod :D ), so I'll be happy to use it in a race. I cannot promise the same level of dedication I have for ZakStunts, but I guess this is true for most pipsqueaks. Repeating my 4th place would be nice :)
