Why is it so hard to meet a deadline that was in place for 3 days? Seriously?

I think he made it, no? I'm on a phone.

He posted it at 12:13am

Gotcha. For some reason this board on my phone is on central time.

[Subtropics]

Love where I stand at this moment.

I like around -9 to win.

Any reason you went low on Wednesday? (I haven't looked at the euro)

Just a hunch. I mostly ignored guidance on this one. But my guess is one of the days busts well low. Probably end up being tomorrow

[MN Transplant]

Glad I was in the lower group for today.

This contest is for humidity, right?  Nothing like a 10 degree departure to lead things off.

[WinterWxLuvr]

LOL, this may set a new mark for contest futility for me.

[wxmeddler]

Did anyone make a matrix or excel for this contest yet, so we can track?

[wxmeddler]

23 contestants. Check to see if your numbers are right. There are 115 numbers I had to enter here, chance is that I screwed up one.

[MN Transplant]

Snuck an 86 in there, so we don't look quite as awful as a group.

If the 90 holds, a bunch of us will hit, and wxmeddler will lead by 1.

yeah...someone will do much better than -9..winning score could even be as good as -2 or -3

[mattie g]

I pretty much never go back on my first guess.  Never really serves me well, but I hope it does in this case...

[Bob Chill]

love the Yoda asterisk

MA Contests are very very serious bidnizzy

Tenman Johnson also 3rd with an 89.

[wxmeddler]

Cough.

 

MNTransplant also got 2nd place yesterday and yes, Tenman Johnson got 3rd.  I edited the original post. The spreadsheet wouldn't allow me to sort by points because of some error, but I got it fixed now.

 

I'll just do this from now on. Remember this is points not place. Low is better.

90

thanks...why did you use departure for the 1st chart and then place for the 2nd?

[wxmeddler]

thanks...why did you use departure for the 1st chart and then place for the 2nd?

 

They are both calculated the same way, they both use departure. However, there was no person with 0 points yesterday so it ended up that the people that had one point were 1st place, 2 pts = 2nd etc. Today there are people with 0 pt departures so they will be 1st, 1pt = 2nd, 2 pts = 3rd etc.

 

If you want to play with the spreadsheet and fill in your own hyoptheticals or see my formulas, you can download it from my website:

ok..thanks....if you can, can you use departure?..that is what people care about...we can all figure out who is in what place

[yoda]

13 mins late... and disqualified, which is correct... but I like that I am doing pretty well anyway
