GP SEASON 5 - ITS GOING ON PRO.....

[McInSanE]

I can see that MAD seems to be really stressed since it is a lot of work he had to do and there were a lot of complaints filed against the results MAD presented...

McInSanE forgives MAD that he hasn't responded to his question yet and he will write this question again not to put pressure on MAD but to let him know that he still acutally has a question and would like to know the answer. Mad is of course free to answer him whenever he wants to..^^

"How do you want to adjust the handicap during the season, MAD? Do you have some incredible system figured out or will it be something like '1st-7th = +1handicap, 8th-14th stays, 15th+=-1handicap ?"

thank you very much

wrong thread why don't you try the "GP SCORING and HANDICAPPING" thread

[mad]

the handicaps are calculated from performance....... its all done using maths and the more data we get the more accurate the results.

[mad]

Belials handicap is still wrong he should be on 4.......

interesting racing, i could part it in 3 pieces:
1. part: doing handy loops, just watching how your position drops towards 20, 25. fingers starting to hurt
2. part: starting to race, gaining places, climbing towards 10, 5. fingers hurt, crashing starts
3. part: good ones catch you and you start to lose places, finishing 15-20. Oh god, is it going to be over soon?



congrats MATT for winning both GP's today

[paradox]

just to let you know mad, i gave myself a 7

I looked at the scores and I noticed that Mad changed the formula... ...I haven't quite figured it out yet but I guess it's worth it to do a few handiloops more now even if you miss a top finish that way - well done mad, I'll try to understand what you are doing there and if I got the maths figured out, I'll create some crazy tactics THAT WILL PWN YOU ALL OK?!

*edit*: I GOT IT! MUHAHAHAHA


*edit #2*: I looked over the team-scores and I noticed that some teams (spanky tech i think, too) have only received the points from one driver - is this because they only had two drivers?

[Dantski]

err question

if bboy is 1st in standings after using 10 handicap loops, why has his been reduced to 9?

The handicap system is a guide based upon your race performance. You may take more than that or one less. The guide is worked out by removing the handicap and then performing calculations based upon actual race times. The better you perform, the higher your handicap will become. The handicap is never set using championship position or my own fancies of where someone should be, unless data is not available for them.

Taking a lower handicap may benefit your team. It may also jeopardise your standings in the personal championship. The aim of the handicap is to generate a close race and a grandstand finish and to push all drivers right through the race.

hey mad you still haven't edited the team-scores.
some teams did only get the points of one single driver

[mad]

I'll sort it later.

[msquires]

Must be why Slotus are so low down the standings

[beechus]

4 handi loops sounds good to me

did Little Deanio not do 2 handi-loops, i'm sure thats what he said (but i've slept since then)

[Belial]

[mad]

hmm yes deanio did two but on all the wrong laps. handicap laps must be done at the start of the race and all together.. he split them over early laps.

His handicap will be adjusted. Thanks

anyone else doing this from now on will get a DQ
