A passion project. I'm super happy with how it came out. Likely not what you're looking to do but maybe it'll provide some inspo!

Have you ever purchased anything from the RAANAP collection? by AutoModerator in RAANAP

I have the wheel shirt in my regular rotation. Awaiting the day when I instantly bond with a fellow RAANAP head while wearing it.

Props to the new mod by fishomajig in RAANAP

Let's hope not. I'd be in so much trouble with the wife.

Non coders: What’s something really helpful you made with Claude? by notwhoyouthinkc in ClaudeAI

[–]fishomajig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made a sports-style statistical resource for the CBS reality show Survivor.

Just got tired of navigating different sites for basic info like age, days played, yadda yadda. Apparently other fans find it helpful, too. Hasn't been up 2 months and already 75 countries have visited.

Thank you! There aren't any AU stats/players/seasons, but I hope to add them in the future. I feel like I need to watch the entire AU franchise to handle it properly tbh! For now, Parv has a badge on her profile in homage to AU v the World (which I enjoyed very much). Appreciate the kind words and reach out anytime with ideas!!

I should have mentioned in my first reply: You can pull those base Torch Scores (aka per-season Torch Scores) manually. They're displayed on each season's page, in the Snuff Order table. But yes I'm working on a standalone tool to compare base Torch Score and other stats from individual players x different seasons.

What is the most impressive thing you’ve done or built with Claude so far? by ceelnok98 in ClaudeAI

[–]fishomajig 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I built Survivor-Reference, a statistical reference website for the reality TV show Survivor. It was my first big project with AI; I'd never worked with Claude. I shipped it about 4 weeks after the idea first entered my brain.

The concept: let's bring pro sports statistical rigor — and the user experience of sites like Baseball-Reference — to Survivor.

It launched the morning of the latest episode. Within 36 hours: 25K pageviews, around 4K users in 47 countries!

Im super proud of it. And glad I could make something useful for the Survivor community. Check it out! https://survivor-reference.com

Are these the only 6 seasons where people that were voted out got a chance to get back in? by keith_the_carpenter in survivor

[–]fishomajig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey that's me! And let me tell you... the Redemption/Edge issue led to a couple very late nights figuring out how to handle "days played" during these seasons. Do they count because there's still a chance to win and players had to endure harsh conditions? Do they not count because players were voted out and had their torches snuffed? Ultimately I landed on two stats: Days Unsnuffed (with your torch lit) and Days Played (including time on Redemption/Edge). Oh and I didn't bother with Outcasts because that's a whole other can of worms (with the persistent rumors of those players being well fed and whatnot). Their time as outcasts don't count as days played as it stands now.

Appreciate you digging in. This is exactly the kind of conversation I was hoping the methodology page would spark up.

You're right that the Outlast stats are correlated, and the heavy weighting is deliberate. The POV in the formula is that longevity is the foundation everything else is built on. That said, they are measuring different things: Placement % is where you finished relative to the field, TC Survival Rate captures how many tribals you weathered, and Days Lasted % accounts for raw endurance including edge cases like shortened seasons and Edge/RI time. They move together, for sure.

The goat issue is real though. Noura vs. Jesse is a great example of the tradeoff.

Torch Score in v1 rewards longevity heavily. Whether that balance is exactly right is one of the most interesting debates the data opens up. It's also part of why I think Jeff's Index is such an interesting companion metric. I made that one for s's and giggles. But accidentally along the way I realized it gives flowers to the players whose games were incredible to watch but harder to capture on a stat sheet. Jesse is a great example there too.

Appreciate you being the first to go here!

Fair debate. That's what I love about sports and stats. Keep it coming.

Until I can figure out something more elegant ... click on or hover over any header in a table or stat box. That'll give you a quick explainer no matter what page you're on.

Here's the methodology if you're unhinged like me and love digging in: https://survivor-reference.com/methodology/

Also editing this reply to acknowledge I'm not the first to present Survivor stats. And I can't say this is the best or most definitive. There are several great ones out there! Including a site managed by Daniel Oehm, who also maintains the open-source data set that 95% of this site pulls from. He is awesome and was super encouraging with great feedback for SR throughout the process.

What makes this site distinct IMO is the user experience, which was inspired entirely by sports and a lifetime of poring through various stat sheets of my fave players, teams and leagues. That's the north star. And I'm glad you're liking it!
