I'm sure you've been following all the results on xmtlive.com, right? Head over there straight away to see what's been going on! I'll write about all the fun of the XMT when I'm less tired and less dejected about getting knocked out in the group stage... but if there's one thing that always cheers me up, it's processing data on complicated Excel spreadsheets, and people* have asked me to update that Elo-style ranking with this year's results, so here we go!
*(okay, just one person, but when it comes to number-crunching you don't have to ask me twice...)
So, after day one, here's my calculation of 100-points-for-the-best-score-in-each-discipline. In previous years, this has been a pretty good indicator of who's in contention to win the title. Alex, Lance and Katie all managed between them to produce some mind-boggling new records - incidentally, my figurative 'side bet' on Katie being the first to register a perfect 50 words and 30 names came good; I must try to find someone who'll actually take my bets on this kind of thing in future!
I did manage some half-way acceptable scores here and there, it's just that everyone's now so much better than I've ever been...
Anyway, let's do some Elo - the same health warnings apply as before; there are hugely too few matches for this to make any sense, it harshly penalises people who've lost their most recent couple of matches (say, because they'd already qualified for the knockout stage and were chasing the records) and over-inflates the scores of people who've only had a very small number of matches... but I think it still makes for some fun reading! First off, an overall ranking, then one for each of the five disciplines:
