Prem Paddlers - Percentages - Advice Please
Posted: Tue May 16, 2017 5:37 pm
So as many of you will be aware the ranking database is heavily automated these days and always a work in progress due to rule changes, requests from paddlers and race formats.
For all but Prem I think things are working.
The thing that is making my brain fry at the moment is p%. It's fine on a classic format race but is totally meaningless for anyone who doesn't reach the final as it could well be time on a different course.
So the questions is how do you the paddlers want p% working out for super final and championship events where paddlers can have between 2 and 4 runs potentially on different courses.
Displaying a meaningful set of results from the ranking database is also a little difficult for these formats.
I could show each individuals best run (and break it down so its obvious its the final/semi/run 2/run1).
or I could show each paddler once with all runs shown (3 or 4) instead of the normal 2 - I think this makes the most sense.
or perhaps something else.
Thoughts/suggestions please.
