Federation Internationale de Ski [TPA5 Major] COMPLETED

by **Silly Knig-it** on Thu Apr 16, 2015 6:46 pm

My apologies, I did not realize that I did not have the spreadsheet links for Games Mountain and Great Lakes Mountain posted. They are now, as well as a link for Across The Channel Mountain, which is race number 7 of 10.

One finished and on the Scoreboard, Northern Mountain.
Please remember, just like the real world FIS, only the first 30 skiers score points. So if you were like the other 70% (which includes me), you are not on the Scoreboard. You can check the Northern Mountain spreadsheet. If your name is in red, you did not score points, in blue, you did.

Pacific Rim Mountain is on its last segment. I will probably be able to score it later this week.

Keep your cards, letters, rants, raves, likes, dislikes, coming. It helps me to keep improving the tournaments.

by **Silly Knig-it** on Wed Apr 29, 2015 12:45 pm

The first 13 places of Pacific Rim, the 2nd race are pretty well set and have been placed on the scoreboard. We have a race starting to shape up.

Please remember, only the first 30 people in each race score points. (If you think that is a stupid idea, then write the real Federation Internationale de Ski, and I will change the system as soon as they do.)

The eighth race has gone out. Time schedule has slipped a little but we are still on track for an August finish.

Please keep the cards and letters coming as you catch my errors on the spreadsheets. If you think you get lost in the numbers, try staring at all of them as you enter each score. I am not perfect, (yet).

Hope you are having fun.

The second race is now posted to the scoreboard. There are two racers still on the course but they cannot mathmatically move into the top 30, so I have scored the race.

We have 39 people who have scored some points and are on the board. If you haven't check out the scoreboard and the spreadsheets for the individual races. I have provided some instruction on how to read the spreadsheet if you are not familiar with them.

just received invitation for last segment of EH race, did we already played 13 colonies map in another race?

by **Silly Knig-it** on Sat May 16, 2015 4:01 pm

Our Third race, Early History Mountain, has had its last (10th) leg issued. Check the spreadsheet for status.

I wish I could update more frequently but CC took away the one toll we had to mark which games had been looked at. So it is far too much work to take intermediate pictures of where the game is at.

Please remember, only the top 30 people score points to go on the overall spreadsheet. So if you don't even exist on that spreadsheet, know that you are in good company (including yours truly), sixty plus percent of us are with you.

by **Silly Knig-it** on Wed May 20, 2015 9:39 am

Oranjeboy has posted an early excellent time for the third race, Early History Mountain. He is standing at the finish with only a couple of people who have a shot at knocking him out of first and the race victory.

Still lots of room in the first 30.

by **Silly Knig-it** on Fri May 22, 2015 12:05 pm

Now would be a really good time to check your scores for the Early History race. We are coming down to the end and it will probably post as a final within the next few days.

Looks like oranjeboy has a lock on this one now. Congrats.

2nd is still a jump ball.

by **Silly Knig-it** on Wed May 27, 2015 9:09 pm

Early History Mountain is now history and is scored on the Scoreboard.

58 of us (sadly not moi) are featured on the board.

Remember only the first 30 people score points. And there is plenty of time for any one of us to make a comeback.

Only five have scored in each race, and of the five none was a winner.

Please check your scores. It is not too late to make changes, even if the race has been posted.

by **Silly Knig-it** on Tue Jun 02, 2015 9:37 pm

The first leg of the final race is now underway.

We have 3 completed, seven underway.

Good luck and keep those cards and letters coming.

by **Silly Knig-it** on Sun Jun 28, 2015 2:02 am

The fourth race Coming Together Mountain is now complete and scored on the FIS spreadsheet.

by **Silly Knig-it** on Sat Jul 18, 2015 12:07 pm

The fifth race, Games Mountain, is now complete and on the Season Scoreboard.

Please let me know about errors soonest.

by **Silly Knig-it** on Sat Aug 01, 2015 1:24 pm

The sixth race is now essentially complete. Three racers still going but they cannot affect the first 30 places.

So this race has been scored on the overall race sheet.

by **Silly Knig-it** on Mon Aug 17, 2015 7:07 am

Final legs for races seven and eight have been issued.

Tropical Mountain is in its sixth leg, four left.

Fantasy Mountain is in its fourth leg, six left.

Can anyone catch shoop76

by **Silly Knig-it** on Wed Sep 02, 2015 1:54 am

Eight races are now complete and scored on the FIS spreadsheet.

We are coming down to the end. Just 3 sections left in Tropical and five in Fantasy, our last two races. I will make corrections right up to the end but if you do not catch an error then the race score will stand.

by **Silly Knig-it** on Sat Sep 12, 2015 2:23 pm

We are getting down to the last few segments of the last two races.

In case people have forgotten, because of your performance in the last Olympics, we have an extra GA medal.
It will be awarded to the skier with the best overall combined time provided the person is different from the overall winner. Here are the standings through 8 complete races:
overlander 0:08:23
grt 0:08:40
shoop76 0:09:10
Mad777 0:09:35
JJ41375 0:09:57
Egomadsen 0:10:02
chejodavila 0:10:06
updalions 0:10:13

by **Mad777** on Sun Oct 04, 2015 1:29 pm

2 segments to go

What a tournament!!! =D>

Any update on the best overall? is there an entry in your spreadsheet?

by **Silly Knig-it** on Mon Oct 05, 2015 12:24 am

Best overall at the end of nine races:

overlander 0:08:50
Mad777 0:09:55
grt 0:10:16
shoop76 0:10:22

Best overall at the end of nine & 8/10's races:

overlander 0:09:31
Mad777 0:10:33
grt 0:10:41
shoop76 0:11:13

I only have a private spreadsheet for this, although anyone can add up their times to get their total. (This one I have stripped down as people seemed out of the running, and it only contains four people now.)

by **Mad777** on Mon Oct 05, 2015 6:57 am

i don't see overlander loosing 1 minutes in the last 2 runs....tight tight tight

by **Mad777** on Sat Oct 17, 2015 3:42 pm

crap that Midgard round killed my score....lost both game with crapy dices and awesome opponents....nice tournament, thanks Silly for the nice setup and the way you kept us up to date. I wish that additional GA would be for the TO

by **Silly Knig-it** on Mon Oct 19, 2015 9:21 am

We are down to the last few days off this tournament. If you are going to find errors, now is when you need to do so. I will be submitting the final scores and ranking to TPA almost immediately.

Check the spreadsheets, tell me if I misscored something.

These are the final rankings for this TPA5 major.

Top score to bottom.

All Withdrawns are treated as season ending injuries. Any score a skier has obtained to that point is credited and they are ranked accordingly.

All DQ'S are ranked last, no matter what score they may have achieved. They are ranked on the date that they DQ'ed. So the first DQ is the lowest rank.

Those of us that finished but scored no points are all tied.
