Someone partied those penalties too hard :stuck_out_tongue:

True, but the slowest games are about 1/15 of the way through, giving a guesstimated time for the first round of 15 years.

Question for the stats guys: Have we yet had a day in which no games were completed?

  • 534 games left, 564 players involved
  • 25 games completed
  • 4 player disqualified
  • 25 players completed all of their games, two of them with 9 wins
  • 5 groups completed all of their games

I don’t know, but I can investigate on that.
Now we have a completed games daily average of about 3 games per day. I think it’s possible that we already had a day with no completed games, but I’ll try to give you a precise answer in next hours (or days).

Still a lot of games are ending then.

I have to admit I don’t really understand the flooding of this thread with uncommented links to finished games. Are they noteworthy in some way? Or is the goal to archive links to thousands of games here?

Only five days later… looks like Spongebod doesn’t have a sign for that. :slight_smile:
I could’ve used the “4 to 6 days” here too… but today I’m lazy. :stuck_out_tongue:

  • 468 games left, 513 players involved
  • 16 games completed

I won’t be upgrading my stats for the rest of august probably.
I’m confident that the tournament won’t end before then. :smiley:

Looking at the Lys’ graphs, 173 players have more than one game left.

hmm. 91 players with 3 or more games remaining are involved in 432 games (assuming they are not playing each other) which is 92% of remaining games.

60 players with 4 or more games remaining are involved in 339 games (assuming they are not playing each other) which is 72% of remaining games.

43 players (or 1.9% - 1/52) are responsible for most (or the majority ;-)) of the remaining games.

So we’re pretty much down to waiting on less than 100 players now.

Or 4% of players are responsible for 90% of remaining games (ish)

I’m one of the slow players. :flushed: I have three games left.

It’s because I procrastinate. I put off my moves until I have just a few days left, sometimes even less than 12 hours left. I also used over a month of vacation when I was going through a stressful period. Somehow I’ve managed to not timeout.

I’m not complaining, and there players far slower than you. I’m just curious.
