04/06/2005: "Amazing Race metrics update"

OK, it's been a few more weeks. Let's see how I'm doing against my metrics (and against my brother):

As a reminder, see my previous entry for details of the formulas and goals. Here are the results to date:

Ranking stability week #1: Ken 1.81 Briain 1.27
Ranking stability week #2: Ken 1.20 Brian 2.20
Ranking stability week #3: Ken 1.00 Brian 2.00
Ranking stability week #4: Ken 0.29 Brian 0.29
Ranking stability week #5: Ken 0.50 Brian 1.00
Ranking stability week #6: Ken 0.80 Brian 0.80

Season ranking stability: Ken 0.93 Brian: 1.42

Philimination accuracy: Ken: 3.00 Brian: 2.33

Skill Score: Ken 2.79 Brian 3.31

So, I'm meeting my target numbers across the board at this point, which is good and I have a slight lead over Brian as well, which is even better! The best part is that our rankings are fairly similar. Basically I rank Rob and Amber as 1st and Brian ranking Uchenna and Joyce in first while we each have the other team in 3rd. So, unless one of those teams go soon, Brian and I will have the same Philimination accuracy for the next week (but not for the season). Since I continue to have greater ranking stability, I feel good about being able to keep a lead.

Ken Crawford :

OK, you want to only care about the winner (and I bet that statement will change if you take a lead in the mini-game). How about this:

I get Rob and Amber, you get Uchenna and Joyce. You get Lynn and Alex and Meredith and Gretchen and I get Ron and Kelly.

Sound like a fair pizza bet?

Ken's Brother :

I find it very "convienant" that you manage to lead in your mini game :-P
For me, all that matters is who wins it in the end, and who called that victory first... Will it be Uchenna and Joyce? or will it be Uchenna and Joyce? Only time will tell!
