Math is Hard

According to KK, we have a 90 point lead in the FGBC - RRR FGD Challenge. By my count, it's more like 35. I'm pretty sure I am correct. Nothing new there, I suppose. Not so much the fact that I'm correct--that is often not the case--but that I think I am--that is pretty much a constant. In any case, that is not a very big lead at all, especially heading into the second MUERTO race of the season, where double points are once again on the line. Paddy and I will be there. Naomi too? Jonny G has ultimate, the Cricket is in Ontario, and the Fraggle is staying in her cave for this one. It sure would be nice to have some reinforcements.

I recieved an email from from KB w with the updadte WNR#3.

My objective was still achieved (not to be last) I was placed 14 out of 15. (not sure about that because I passed CB in my third lap, but now at least my effort been now recorded) Larry has been place at number 7.

so more math will need to be done.

That math is already factored in. My guess is that KK added all the points from last Wednesday, when all but yours had already been included. So he basically gave us double points there. A nice gesture, but one that we should probably decline. I don't know how we ended up one point off on the score for RRR. But I'm sure we will figure it all out.

KK said...

Hmmm...re-checking my calulations I've given you guys a few more points I should have.

As Chris surmized, I basically gave you guys double Wednesday totals.

I'll make the adjustment. Math never was my strong suit.

This makes RtB even more exciting.

Given our DNF's of late, pre RTB trash talking would be foolish. But we'll have some good numbers. As always, it'll be a character building day. We may even take back the lead for a while. And heading into the Tour with Mike's amazing streak in the pools, it looks like the momentum is shifting.

Anyone interested in a car pooling scenario for Sunday... I can drive part way, all the way, drop off, pick up, etc. -- but I need to get back from grand Beach!

I assume the car pooling question will come up tonight. In any case, I think I'm in the same situation as you. So is Jonny B.

PaddyH said...

uh...I think Naomi and I are too....anyone up for riding back?...I assume the road still lacks a shoulder, and is likely to be heavily trafficked by beachgoers driving a kazzilion mph.....
