OR Team DG: 2010-11 TDG Initial Rosters & Ratings

[Jeff Hemmerling]

Here are the rosters and starting ratings that Jordan and I
used to determine team rankings. Please post here if there
are any errors, including ratings and the spelling of names.
Thanks!

The R.I.P. Trozzle team is cobbled together with players
looking for a team. We chose Josh Dearing as the captain
since he's the only player Jordan has contact info for.

The "Initial Rating" entries are color coded:
black - Current PDGA rating
green - TDG 09/10 final rating
"NA" - Prelims rounds used
pink - No PDGA, no TDG 09/10, no prelim round. Estimated
rating, which we purposefully inflated since there was
no history for this player. This rating will be used
for handicapping the first match but will not count
towards their overall season rating.

The ratings in the "Week 1" column are the starting ratings
that will be used this weekend. This is an average of the
initial rating and all prelim rounds.

Stephen Sines 991>935

Also, I am bummed Dare is not playing.

Actually his PDGA rating was determined solely from 3 rounds at the Bad Monkey Open. He tore that shit up and started with an amazing first rating...

Jody Brody 938? I am hoping that is a typo Jordan.

Assuming they averaged the PDGA rating and the Prelim rating, one could assume:

If Stephen Sines played only one Prelim round:

991-935=56
56x2=112
991-112=879

So he shot an 879 rated round at Prelims. What's up with that (*cough* bagging)?

Gawain must have shot:

931-913=18
18x2=36
931+36=967

A 967 rated round (a 57).

So Sines really shot 112 points worse than his own PDGA rating? 88 points worse than Gawain?

I thought that if Prelim ratings were lower than PDGA ratings, that the prelim ratings would be tossed out. At the least, there could be some type of cutoff. Even if we said a round outside the range of 90 to 110% of PDGA rating will not count, that would make Stephen's range: 892 to 1090, which would have caused his 879 to be tossed out.

For example. most handicap leagues have a formula which tosses scores out of the handicap calculation if they are inordinately high for that player's skill level.

No typo. The only data we had to rate her was the one round at Pier where she shot a smoking 59 for a rating of 938. Was that not her score?

Funny thing for me is 2 of last years Crazy 18 are on a new team and they named it "RIP Trozzle"? All I am doing is taking a year off due to other winter time commitments. Sounds like somebody is butt hurt. Oh well. use my name without asking me first. no biggie to me. I hope everyone has fun with TDG this year. I will be back next year.

He started with a rating of 991. He shot three rounds at Pier: 881, 935, 931. Since his 991 was based on only three rounds we aren't too worried.

No worries Trozz. I came up with that name as a placeholder last night in a haze of fatigue. Don't blame them. I'm assuming they'll pick their own name.

[Trozzle!!!]

oh ok. i thought I was gonna have to talk to the boys and see if they are holding a grudge. I hope they do come up with a better name.

She did not shoot a 59 I think it was a 69.

And this ladies and gentlemen is the single best reason to turn in a legible scorecard!

I also found an e-mail with Dark Horse rounds that I need to add as well. It may take a while before I get the schedule put together.

Sorry we tried to turn in a readable score card in, but it was so wet that made it difficult. We transferred our scores to a new card before we turned it in, and I think accidentally the messed up one got turned in too. Sorry Jordan.

No worries, it's all good. We'll have Rite-in-the-Rain scorecards all winter thanks to Senior Gorman. They really work well for winter golf.

Jody's 69 was rated at 843, so that will be her starting rating at Sorosis.

Thanks Jordan you are simply the best.

Scott Sunnes and Tim at 976 and 986?????
What scores did they shoot? Tim apparently does more than make dogs.
They made our 950 pre-lim no-show a good idea.
We should see a dramatic change in our ratings from week one to two.
Watch out Week Two opponents!

My prelim round was rated 945. My PDGA is 913. Average those, you get 929, not 931. Only 2 points, but makes me wonder: how DID they calculate that OTDG rating, anyway?

1000 sided dice of course.

I huge thanks to Jordan for all of his hard work. Any left over thanks can be handed over to Jeff. Hahaha, I kid of course.

Seriously though, lets all try and remember that your excessive bitching at/to Jordan over schedules, rosters or match-ups should be equal to the amount of money you are paying him for all this work.

It's supposed to be fun people, so let's have some.
