Do you suppose this is created so that the referee can pass judgment on his opinion? 18 hours ago, arnieg said: I think it would be sufficient just to exclude heat 2 - the Poles used to do that a few years ago. Another thing we might borrow from them is to throw away highest and lowest scores before calculating averages which makes manipulation more difficult. Yes, this is the median, not the average. In statistics, there is a great deal of attention paid to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No it isn't. the median is the mid-point, excluding top and bottom will not alter the median, but they will alter the mean. As you exclude more and more scoes (top and bottom two, then top and bottom three etc) the average will converge on the median, but just excluding one does not turn it into the median .e.g. scores of 6,9,9,10,10,10,10 Median = 10 Mean = 9.14 Average excluding outliers = 9.6 Average excluding two outliers = 9.67 Average excluding 3 outliers = 10 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure why they changed it tbh! I would have thought it was fairly obvious, the less matches that count the more GSA can be manipulated. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The current generation of Aussies learned to ride on tracks comparable with Britain (or smaller in the case of Pinjar Park) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTT Posted November 8, 2022 Report Share Posted November 8, 2022 Based off Pickering's interview a few weeks ago where he was talking like he's staying and so are the majority of the 2022 side. 1. Richard Lawson 7.71 2. Josh Pickering 6.14 3. Peter Kildemand 6.67 or 7.10 (He fits either way) 4. Thomas Jorgensen 6.35 or Richie Worrall 6.31 5. Nicolai Klindt 7.39 6. Fredrik Jakobsen 5.04 7. Jason Edwards or Jack Thomas 2.50 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason Edwards or Jack Thomas 2.50 Are you going to a 42.50 average. If so Zagar fits for Killer but i'm dreaming there .I'd swap Killer for MPT every day of the week though . But i expect he is already fixed up with you by now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
