11/13/07 Ratings Update

[skipache]

I think ill go up a few points, last fall i played really poorly so with some of those dropping and being replaced with better ones i should be in pretty good shape...

anybody going way up or down?

[Fox Metro Discer]

I don't know, but I think I'll be flirting with the 935 mark that the PDGA is setting up for next year. We'll see.

[skipache]

aurora will probably put you about there

I'm hoping to get up to at least 815 (at 811 right now).  I threw an 895 rated round (something close to that) at Bloomington/Normal, but I had a terrible day at IOS #6.  I did ok at IOS #5, so I think I'll be moving on up some.  I don't know if the DISContinuum challenge ratings will be included for me since I only played 1 of the rounds, but that was a good day for me too.

Yay for finally stringing together some decent rounds.  Time to knock out those silly old cruddy rounds!

[Bruce Brakel]

I thought I was going to go way down, but then I played three rated rounds on "home" courses where I averaged well above my rating.  So maybe I'll hold steady.  Too low to be pro.  Too high to play Adv Master.  Although, in Michigan you can never be too high to play Adv Master.  Especially after lunch. 

[Jon Brakel]

As the King (or maybe Court Jester) of playing one round in two round tournaments, they will count the round that you played as long as it isn't out of their standard deviation tolerance.

lol


I think I'll hold steady. I've had some good rounds coupled with some baaad rounds that will probably even things out.

I'm just hoping that my play at the Homie was bad enough to get the rounds dropped.  It might have been.

That is not likely to be an issue until next July's update.   

[skipache]

more likely the update they typically do in January

there is nothing as satisfying as playing so bad that it doesn't count so that you can have a rating higher than your actual skill level.

I tell random people who know nothing about disc golf that a 932 rating in disc golf is only 100 points off of the best in the world, so I'm pretty damn good considering the average rating must be like 500 to a person who knows nothing about the rating system.

Here I come Intermediate Division....

I'm doing the happy dance

[pickax]

Up11 Woohoo. Still AMIV. I'm enthusiastic!
I had a 140 rating point swing from 2nd round of the Discontinuum Tourney to the first round of Aurora.

not any more you're not. Or did they change it back again?

[pickax]

MA4 is <850. They moved the line up just for me. 
But now I'm just considered a Novice. I still say inconsistent is better.

Guess I'll have to work a little harder to get there...only went down 3 points. Definitely thought I was going to plummet.

translation: almost a bagger

woooohoooo I had my highest jump ever of +13 to 824.  Wow, the B/N round came in at 897, I think that went up 4 points or so.  Now if I can only get more rounds like that, I'll be set!

congrats those those who hoped they would move up and did!
