Another Race?

Would anyone be interested in doing a race with me? Maybe it could be a team of racers with approximately the same daily output as the farm?

It could be the Fruitflies vs the Cropduster! 🙂

(or something like that...😉 )

Anyone game?
 
Hey, I'm all for that. Bring him on! I can take you by myself!
*bang bang*
Hey you guys are not alowed in here!
*the men in white take Evadman away*
 
Once i stop crunching for TA SETI Cavalry for the PowerPot, i will be in the team against Farmer Indy 🙂

In his new 'Vette, IndyJaws pulls up next to Robor in his overmatched GTI GLX and challenges him to a race. Pretending not to hear him Robor stares straight ahead and listens to Tool on the CD player while wondering how he can get more power... 😉
 


<< I can see it now - TeAm Anandtech vs IndyJaws - race to 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 WUs... >>



hahha



<< straight ahead and listens to Tool on the CD player while wondering how he can get more power... >>



and now a moment of silence for Tool!

😀
 
Hmmmm,

I think Robor and I could possibly take you. 😀

I will have to check my numbers if we need Bazilla too. 😉

 
Hehe... Pretty funny that we're talking about teaming up me, Grant (Eponymous), and Baz against the newcomer, IndyJaws! Not to brag but the 3 of us have been in the top 5 for a while now and all of the sudden IndyJaws comes along and cleans up on us. I love it! Pour it on. Fertilize the soil. Plant the seeds. Reap the harvest and watch the WU's fly!

This race kicks arse and the new members as a result are exactly what this team needed! 😀
 
I love it! 🙂

Robor, see what you need to put together (teammate-wise) and we'll notify OD of the new race! 😀

I'll trust you to determine a fair team - I don't even know what I put out in a day (300-ish I'd suppose). 🙂
 
Indy...there was a time not to long ago when I was in your shoes, coming from way behind, rising through the ranks like rocket. With not a little hubris ( 🙂 )I started my own "Ultimate IntraTeam Racing Challenge" and kept stats of how I was doing compared to those ahead of me on the team. I kept these stats in the form of a html spreadsheet dubbed "The Ultimate IntraTeam Racing Challenge Leaderboard."

Well, welcome to a resurrection of The Ultimate IntraTeam Racing Challenge Leaderboard. 🙂 In honor of your phenomenal contribution to the team, and your meteoric rise through our ranks, I've made you the primary focus of the resurrected stats. Because of a little challenge that Hack and I have going on, I'm also using the spreadsheet to track our results. Presently, the stats are a bit preliminary, because I like to use 14 day moving averages, and don't have the necessary data yet. But over the next couple of weeks, the numbers should settle down into a good prediction of where you (and Hack and myself) are, and are headed.

This is not meant to stop you from forming a race with others. It is just that the methodology I use in this html spreadsheet is specifically designed to track the movement of someone rising up through the team ranks, so it seems fitting to use it to track your progress.

Just a quick word about how to view or interpret the data. The numbers in the column "IndyJaws Days to Catch" (Column F) estimate the number of days it will take to catch those who are ahead of you in the team rankings. For example, with the current numbers (remembering that they are preliminary), you would catch up with me in 126 days. Since you are currently outproducing everybody on the team, everybody ahead of you is currently "catchable", though you'll need the better part of two years to catch Grant (Eponymous). 🙂 Hack and I are in a race to #7, and the amazing thing is that you are only about 25 days behind us in getting to that level first, and you would soon pass us and push us back down a notch! BTW, welcome to the top 100 on the team! I doubt if anybody has ever gotten there as fast as you have.

All this stats mania has got me looking at yet another milestone for several of us. Soni just made it into the Top 1000 of all S@H producers in the world. Well, looking at the three month projections in the Leaderboard, I think several more of us will break into the Top 1000 before too long. Beginning today, I'm going to start keeping stats on the top 1000 users, and in a week or so will start producing a similar kind of html spreadsheet predicting when some more of us TA members will break into the top 1000.

Ain't it fun?

Hey, you all are picking on IndyJaws. :|

Indy, since I spotted you first you are sort of my responsibilty.......hmmmm,

I'll be on IndyJaws Team 😀

😛
 
Bazilla, that chart is awesome! 😀😀😀 You answered a bunch of stats I was wondering about. 😀

Thank you! 😀😀😀
 
Make sure I'm on the opposing side. I wont make much difference anyway 😵

*hands Robor a turbo, special manifold and exhaust, 400cc injectors etc*
