Can you give us a clue what you´re doing before Kradovech gets the material for statistics? Is it possible for an amateur like any of us to do the work you´ve done?Quote:

I could work easily enough with a text file, something like this:
1 Tanak 2 Sordo 3 Ogier 4 Neuville 5 Evans 6 Lappi 7 Rovanpera 8 Suninen Quest
1 Ogier 2 Evans 3 Tanak 4 Lappi 5 Neuville 6 Sordo 7 Suninen 8 Gryazin hsmed
1 Tanak 2 Sordo 3 Ogier 4 Neuville 5 Lappi 6 Rovanpera 7 Greensmith 8 Tidemand AnttiL
That is why i proposed the change in the format.
I would say an "amateur" could simply do it by hand but the problem is not mixing up any of the predictions and names in the process. That and it is quite tedious I imagine
Here comes Sweden, this time a two man effort by me and Rallyper. Please check your results, firstly if your name is included.
Rally Sweden
A low scoring round, I suppose people did not have enough faith in Evans and Rovanperä. COD took the win by some distance, others follow in tighter gaps

Overall
No big changes in the overall standings yet, but a long season to go.

A big well done to Kradovech for suggesting adding User name to end of your predictions. As somebody who converted the pickems data into a spreadsheet over a season I can confirm it will make a huge difference in how easy it is to get data ready for calculating results. It will take less than a quarter of the time to get ready to calculate scores.
It will also improve accuracy with greatly reduced chance of an error like I made with Monte Carlo data (apologies Kaps).
The concern AnttiL raised about someone using another persons username is easily reviewed for. Have a look at Mexico pickems and you will see how easy it is to review that Username in pickem is the same as posters username.
Again well done Kradovech for figuring out a simple easy to do solution.
No offense taken, mate!Quote:

I, as a 2005 WRC Pickems champion, can't allow such pathetic scores to continue, n'est-ce pas?
Wow, finally a win! I’ll enjoy it while it lasts, probably back to earth on next round
Ready with Mexico! I would say the experiment with new entry system is a success. I did not get a chance to test it myself - I was still at work on friday when KiwiWRCfan had already sent me the converted results. Even though 8 people had not included their name, it only took him 15 minutes to do the job that in Monte took him 2 hours. It would have been even faster if everyone had included their names. It is understandable that some people missed it this time since it was a last minute change, I have notified them by PM about it. Also, one person entered another members name in his prediction, that was corrected. Still there is a lot of potential in this new system, lets keep it for the future as well.
So this time around the results are brough to you with the help of Rallyper and KiwiWRCfan. Chance for mistakes should be reduced now but please still check the results for your name.
Rally Mexico
Top 3 on the same score! Mintexmemory takes the win with a slightly more accurate prediction, second position is shared by Skarderud and Wold
https://i.ibb.co/QQ3TyC3/Mexico-1.png
https://i.ibb.co/mJPJL78/Mexico-2.png
https://i.ibb.co/DCWLK5D/Mexico-3.png
Overall
Quite a lot of shuffeling of positions - dropping the worst result has quite a big effect in the beginning of the year. Looks like Rallyper will have to keep up the flag of the organizers this season - only one of us to challenge the top 3 so far :)

FYI I will start up Pickems thread as usual one week before Rally Estonia. Same procedure as always. :) :)
Hope for same cooperation results from my mates.
I am here and ready. Lets keep the same system as last round - every one please add their name to the end of the prediction. It will bring you results much faster. Rallyper, please point it out in the pickems thread as well - it has been a while so people may have forgotten the latest developments in our system :)
I can assist with converting entries into spreadsheet again
Funny to see that some members expect Neuville to win Estonia...
Kradovech I have just emailed you the Estonia pickems entries converted into spreadsheet format
After a long break, here comes Estonia. Credit to Rallyper and KiwiWRCfan for helping out. Big thanks to everyone including their name in the prediction, really helps us to bring you the results faster
Rally Estonia
Win goes to Maailmameister, only one to put Breen in the top 3! Eli and Katvala are 6 points behind, in 2nd and 3rd

https://i.ibb.co/1rZRFJ7/Estonia-3.png

Top 2 remains the same, however many climbing toward them, myself included :)

Im not in the results, #43 was my bet.
Maybe more has been overlooked?

skarderud was the only error. My apologies to skarderud
Thank you very much!
I will step up my shit before next time!:)
I live in Lillehammer, so it wasn't to big mistake

I will update the tables with the correct name the next weekend.
This is exactly why adding the name to the prediction line helps, otherwise mistakes like this are very easy to happen during manual conversion. Not to forget it will save a lot of time for the converter. So hopefully everyone else who did not do it this time, will remember it for the next round :)
Here is Turkey. As always, big help from Rallyper and KiwiWRCfan
Rally Turkey
GigiGallyNo1 takes the win. Second and third go to Ucci and Sulland
https://i.ibb.co/h1JjqB4/Turkey1.png
https://i.ibb.co/s9FV9nP/Turkey2.png

Overall
Sidrun continues to lead, however not too far ahead of others

Fast and excellent, brother! Thumbs up!
Mega! I won! :D :D :D :D :D
Hi guys, i know i'm late but why is pickems entry for sadegna so early closed?
Here are my pickems
1 Tanak 2 Neuville 3 Ogier 4 Sordo 5 Suninen 6 Evans 7 Lappi 8 Rovanpera fisulino
I understand when i get 0 points, np.
fisulino
I have also been caught out by the early close off times
My pickems would have been
1 Neuville 2 Sordo 3 Tanak 4 Ogier 5 Suninen 6 Evans 7 Ostberg 8 Katsuta KiwiWRCFan
Well. No problems for me if you´d like to join.
However what´s the problem holding the time guys?
1700 CET Thursday, was for your knowledge for ONE week...
I think we can allow it this time as an exception, especially since KiwiWRCfan has helped with the pickems throughout this seasnon. Its not like were playing for money, its just abit of fun. Just pay attention to the closing times in the future.
If anyone has a problem with this and considers it unfair, post here an we'll revisit the issue.
Results of Italy, with help from Rallyper and KiwiWRCfan. Quite low attendance this time, perhaps people were not ready for a full 3 day rally schedule over such a long time.
Rally Italia Sardegna
Very close this time, top 9 within 4 points. Victory to jcevc, KiwiWRCfan and EstWRC with one point behind.
https://i.ibb.co/vXCZLD3/Italy1.png
https://i.ibb.co/my8x4nc/Italy2.png
https://i.ibb.co/fDW2VnQ/Italy3.png
Overall
Sidrun missed the predictions this time and drops to 9th. The top is very close once again, Maailmameister takes the lead, Rallyper is close behind. So pickems organizers have performed suspiciously well in Italy :)

Estwrc has same position as Tanak at drivers championship.
the difference is that i still have a shot at the title ;)Quote:

I hope I will not stop here :)
Why am I DNS for Sardinia?
Although terrible, my prediction is right there, last post in the thread?
KiwiWRCfan must have missed you by mistake when he was copying everyone to excel. I will add you later this week, I will send a PM once its done. Sorry for the inconvenienceQuote:

This unusual season has ended! I would like to take a chance to thank the cocontributers, Rallyper and KiwiWRCFAN who have helped throughtout the season to bring you the pickems. Also, thank you everyone adding your username to the predictions - this is the reason why I can bring you the results the same day the rally finishes. Now, without further ado:
Rally Monza
Vincemon1285 takes the win on the last round! He is followed by atsiotras79 and NoFear85.

https://i.ibb.co/ZxFFDtj/Monza-2.png
https://i.ibb.co/XLRZ8Rr/Monza-3.png
Overall
The WRC pickems champion is ... Maailmameister! He increased his lead further by having a solid result on the last round. Consistent results throughout the season, big congratulations!
Wold climbed to second with the last round, cheers! And of course being responsible for adding up the scores, I had to move myself up to 3rd :)
We had different winners on every round. In fact, only one players managed to finish on podium twice: GigiGalliNo1. You may not have reached your personal goal of top 20 but you can take some pride in this achievement :)

Kradovech thanks for super fast results. In the finish line I made the best
results in this year. Congrats to all participants.
