GT4 WRS Weekly Leaderboard

[Small_Fryz]

Nope. As far as I know, I don't know anyone on the Planet.

Im not sure if you got Cyrils joke, read some of the earlier posts in this thread.

 

[mkay]

[Studentdriver]

[kennythebomb]

Thanks for the nice words Niels.
Now that the stats are OK, I'll spend more time on racing than on admin, and I'll eventually enter this board, joining my fellow musketeers

Hey Flat-Out

I just realised I haven't given you props yet for the leader board. It's well staunch.

jonny is all 6's and 7's

(i got it off austinpowers, i think it means crazy, loopy!)

 

[Tedehur]

Thanks John.
I must admit that VEXD was entirely right on this one : I hadn't understood 'props' and 'staunch' on your first post, but I had guessed that it was a positive comment.
Same that when Jerry (Sphinx) called the board 'pukka'.
Your second post was way better as far as my poor frenchman's understanding is concerned.

Cest Magnifique! et maintenant je suis numero un, cest muir en plus!

Pretty good. Here is a corrected version :
C'est magnifique! Et maintenant je suis numéro un, c'est ???
The end is rather confusing and I don't get what you mean. Probably something like 'that's even greater' (ie, C'est encore mieux).
👍

The good thing with foreign languages is that they are ignored by the censoring engine. Merde alors !!!

 

[Small_Fryz]

i knew what props meant but not staunch

can you translate what VEXD said for us Cyril?

I know what the 'props' are when you're shooting a movie, but I think that's completely different here.

C'est magnifique! et maintenant je suis numéro un, c'est encore mieux !
It's wonderful! and now I'm number one, it's even better !

:show off:

 

[Small_Fryz]

i knew what props meant in both contextes (sp).

Vexd is a show off

Thanks for translating Cyril!

 

[RSCosworth]

I want to thank you, flat-out, for your huge work you do for the board.👍 The board is very motivating because you can see the progress you've made. I got from 17th to 4th in a week! Now I'm obsessed to get in the third place
Too bad I'm standing aside for two weeks because I'm travelling, so I can't earn any points

Again, thanks flat-out!

 

[Kolyana]

Yeah, sorry. Let me just run that through the Stuffy Brit transputer.

Pursuant to the comments made above by GTPlanet member JohnnyDangerous, I’d like to also take this opportunity to show my appreciation for the extensive research and work-hours that everyone in connection with this unsurpassed “Leader board” has given.

And with that being said... here’s my 21-thumb-salute to all those involved!

Thanks a lot for the comment.
But...
First question : why 21 and not 48 or 56 or whatever ?
I'm not aware of any symbolic signification of number 21.
Second question : why didn't you split them in 3 rows of 7, that'd have looked much better (see below)

@ Dion : now I know too both meanings of 'prop'.
It also has a third meaning in aircrafts and ship where it's an informal short for 'propeller' (source : Cambridge dictionary)

 

[TheWizard]

Are you a friend or relative of a guy called TheWizard ???

Not "ThePlanet"?

Ah, so this is what goes on when I am not around, eh?
Talking behind my back... can't leave for a few days, without things getting out of control

Anyway, back "on topic"... No poins for me, this week

And since I am going through hell this week and I will have finals next week, most likely it will be no points for me next week and the one after that either.

But, finally, after May 7th everything will be over, and I'll have a whole Summer to put some effort into improving my driving skills 👍

[Studentdriver]

First question : why 21 and not 48 or 56 or whatever ?

At military funerals, or at parades for holidays like our Memorial Day and Veteran's Day, there is a 21-gun-salute, where seven men lined up in a row each shoot a blank, and repeat it twice more. I'm sure this is done on other occasions, but I can't think of any others. I don't know why it's 21 though.

 

[Teledriel]

Welp, since I am sitting here at work, and in military, I will be the one to provide for ya all. Below is the link to information for those that want, since it easier than posting the whole information.

👍
I had done a quick search on Google to find that many countries are using 21 gunshots. That's explained by the 14th century origin.

 

[Tedehur]

Post #1 is updated with the latest results.

Div 1 drivers decided for a status quo.
9 submissions only and not many changes in the standings.

There was more movement in div 2 while kenny and Rob rushed on the podium aiming at vexd first spot. Vexd probably hopes he'll get promoted before they catch up

And as usual div 3 rankings seems to have been shaken. Former leader loses as many as half a dozen spots, only because he missed a race. These guys/gals are really unforgiving

 

[Kolyana]

Thanks for the update flat-out.

 

[Kolyana]

BTW, wasn't ThirdEye in one of the previous WRS tables? I can't see him now, but then I might be talking through my bum

 

[Tedehur]

Thirdeye raced all races so far, but he finished respectively 26th, 29th, 35th and 24th. He's getting closer to top 20 but still needs 2 solid seconds to have his name on the board.

My board is not much rewarding for him and some other, I know (I didn't expect such a success for the GT4 WRS, since the average number of submission in the GT3 version was 18, all divisions together), and that's the very reason why you and Teledriel created a div3 board.

I'm trying to stay accurate and spoil noboby on my board (which still takes me 1.5 hour every week, even after I automated most of the calculation).
Thanks for staying vigilant anyway.

BTW, I know I promised you a logo for your board, I'm just short of time since a few days.

 

[MagpieRacer]

awww dam, i dropped down a place or 2, it close at the top of D3, 9 points in it in the top 4

1 actually.
There are links to the previous weeks boards below the key to the board : you can check what was your ranking across the entire WRS.

 

[Kolyana]

Thanks Flat-Out. I suspect that I had some erroneous data concerning driver placements in your WRS board and had ThirdEye down as having a spot last week but not this; clearly it was my bad.

Lord, I have to stop saying that.

 

[Small_Fryz]

Thanks Cyril! 👍

Im 6th! yay, hopefully i can keep on moving up!
