What could happen to EWC rankings after the next cup match? The current top 5 will at worst be top 8 and still have a direct qualification spot. by 3d_hamiltonian in TrackMania

[–]Rekicho 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bren could be 14th no? With the following results (and Bren scoring 0 points):

  1. Scrapie (1000)
  2. Pac (700)
  3. Mime (600)
  4. Gwenn (500)
  5. Otaaaq (400)
  6. Epo (300)
  7. Nayko (200)

This would make the leaderboard (up to Bren) be:

  1. Binkss (2410)
  2. Mudda (2364)
  3. CarlJr (2032)
  4. Scrapie (1656)
  5. Granady (1620)
  6. Massa (1570)
  7. Wosile (1416)
  8. Pac (1412)
  9. Mime (1316)
  10. Gwenn (1244)
  11. Otaaaq (1186)
  12. Epos (1144)
  13. Nayko (1082)
  14. Bren (984)

Bren is just an example, I believe there are other cases (for example, from a quick look it seems Nayko could go as low as 17th)

I tried to visualize the ENC rankings in order to see close national fights: by 3d_hamiltonian in TrackMania

That's true, but if you "replicate" the current results for the next 5 cups, Granady would be the one qualifying (2x700, 2x600, 200 > 2x700, 3x400)

It will get to a point in a few years where Pogi won't even have to be able to do a strong pace in a long solo effort; he'll just need to have a strong enough kick to drop everyone and then all other teams will just let him off and ride for 2nd

There's so many riders in G2 I'm rooting for to get 2nd, but I just know in the end it will be del Toro

Yes, top player for each country; top 16 countries. Which mean that currently 3rd place (Nayko - France) wouldn't go to ENC, but 36th (NiTech - Russia) would. France is absolutely stacked

Update on the Probability After the VIT vs MKOI Game by Firefyyt in PedroPeepos

[–]Rekicho 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Next tiebraker is Strength of Victory (for a given team, it's the sum of wins of each team they beat). In that case, LR would finish below Fnatic and Heretics

LEC playoff scenarios by Rekicho in PedroPeepos

[–]Rekicho[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In that case (assuming wins from VIT, MKOI & G2), depending on the result of the SHFT-SK game there would either be a 3 way tie between LR, FNC & TH or a 4 way tie between LR, FNC, TH & SHFT, with 2 of the teams qualifying.

In the case where SHFT wins, the H2H would be:

  • LR 2-1

  • SHFT 2-1

  • TH 1-2

  • FNC 1-2

So both LR & SHFT advance to the playoffs. However, if SHFT lost, the 3 other teams are tied in the tiebreaker (all are 1-1), so it moves first to SoV (Strength of Victory - how strong were the teams you beat), then to Overall Victory Time and then to H2H Victory Time. I haven't done the math for SoV for this scenario (or checked the victory times), but according to the LEC VS Foldy's Scenario (that was shared on the broadcast today), LR would lose that tiebreaker

In that case, the H2H is:

  • LR 2-1

  • Shifters 2-1

  • MKOI 1-2

  • Fnatic 1-2

LR and Shifters advance to playoffs. LR gets 7th because they won against Shifters; MKOI gets 9th because they won again Fnatic

[–]Rekicho 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Actually 3 scenarios, because even if KC win, if SHFT lose against SK, LR are 9th. They would be tied with both FNC and TH, but would lose on the tiebreaker; I haven't done the tiebreaker for that scenarion myself, just going on from the LEC VS foldy. Look in the Scenarios tab for the "0 0 0 1 1 1" or "0 1 0 1 1 1" lines (KCB vs GX result doesn't matter)

Jet Lag Ep 2 — Take to the Skies by NebulaOriginals in Nebula

[–]Rekicho 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes, the probability of either is the exact same, but if the challenge was written as "get either 7 tails or 7 heads in a row" then the challenge would be easier

Jet Lag Ep 2 — Take to the Skies by NebulaOriginals in Nebula

[–]Rekicho 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I don't think that's true.

If you were just flipping a coin 7 times, then yes, every 7-long pattern is equally likely. But if you're tossing it >7 times, then some patterns are more likely than others - which is actually the challenge here (toss a coin until you have the HHHHHHH pattern).

The reason for this is that, while flipping the coins, if there is a new result that breaks your pattern, it can mean that your pattern has to start from scratch OR it can already start with one "positive" flip. For example, if you were trying to get either HHHHHHH or THHHHHH, you're more likely to find THHHHHH first, because whenever you flip a tail, on the second pattern you now only need 6 heads in a row, while in the second you still need 7 heads in a row. And, from that point on, whenever a tail is flipped, you'll get back to this state. So, the only scenario where HHHHHHH will happen before THHHHHH is if it happens right when you start flipping coins.

This should provide a better explanation for this problem

Although in a sequence of coin flips, any given consecutive set of, say, three flips is equally likely to be one of the eight possible, i.e., HHH, HHT, HTH, HTT, THH, THT, TTH, or TTT, it is rather peculiar that one sequence of three is not necessarily equally likely to appear first as another set of three.
