DpooleTakes the Number 4 spot in the Lincoln Registry!

Spooly

Congrats David! You bumped the JK/AngleDees set and took the number 4 spot! (Those Reds Won) Made the number 5 spot "All Time Finest" list too!


You going after High Desert next? (Music playing from the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly)

jy8s

Now that he is tied with the set, will he break the tie before the auction? Or will the JKaumaff upgrade prior to the auction? and take 4th outright?

Stay tuned!

Spooly

It's weird.... in the current finest... there is no number 5 spot! Jumped from 4 to 6? All time finest is the same way. 5 to 7th? Weird, must be a "bug" in the system if the points are tied. But Dpoole set is 100% RED!

keithdagen

Not a bug. A lot of ranking systems will not include a #2 if there are two tied for #1. It would go #1, #1, #3.

Congrats to Dpoole on the upgrades. Won't be long until he's at the top of the heap.

Spooly,

I have that "missing" position reserved (it might take another 10 years thou....

Congrats, but I hate to break the news, he is #4 because of rounding and alphabetical order. Angle Dee has one more point than David Poole :<

Spooly

Sonof@gunk what do you mean? I see both sets with 67.84 both in Set Rating and Weighted GPA.

But Dpoole set is 100% RED vs 97% for JK/A.Dees


Sorry about the "Sonof@gunk " the censor made me change it! ????

Angel has 67.8448687 (28,427/419)
and David has 67.8424821 (28,426/419)

Sorry for being a geek

Spooly

sonof@gunk.............................. you are scarey!

Spooly
It is all these accountants andanalitical types.LOL

keithdagen

Gunk,

You are wrong on one point. Since the rounded score is a tie, Dpoole's is higher because his was registered first. That's in the rules somewhere. They don't go on alphabetical in the listings.

Keith

sonofagunk

I like that tie breaker. I am sure that David can pick up one more point (or 2) somewhere!!!

Spooly

( registered first ) ???? Really??? I thought a tie would then go to % Red? Makes sense to me. ????


Where is BJ when you need her?

keithdagen

It's a Registry wide tiebreaker. However, for sets like this, a higher % Red, FBL, FH, or whatever, should get the recognition it deserves.

I'd like to thank my loving wife, my adoring children, my sainted mother, my heroic father, my 5th grade math teacher and all the little people who have assisted me to this lofty pinnacle (*sob*).

I would also like to thank Spooly, who gutted his collection in a trade to get me upgrades on my 1927 and 1952-D.

sono(*censored*)unk--despite the fact that you bring unhappy news, I have to admit that I am in awe!

oreville

Watch out!!!

Once dpoole gets too high in the rankings and once the set is complete, he gets that itch to sell!!!

Say it ain't so dpoole!!!

sonofagunk

David,
If I had any coins from my set that would help you I will sell (NOT RENT) them to you. I just do not have anything to offer

lazeroo

great set david!!

i've set my goal to catch your set. lol. lets say around 2010 you better watch your back lol.

Spooly

Ok I just got a e-mal form BJ:

The first registered set is the one that comes first in ties (not alpha),
which is why DPoole's set shows up first. The percentage of RD has (or
should have been) already calculated in the GPA. That RD percentage is
merely for reference. Finally, when there are ties, we don't count them 4,
5, we count them 4,4 because they are both in fourth place. Does that all
make sense?

CrazyJack

David,
I'm moving up on you (I know I'm a "ways" off yet), but moving up just the same:-) The Lambert Collection will catch you someday
Congrats! You deserve it, it's a nice set!
Jackie
