Four of us drove to Ft. Meyers last Saturday to participate in their tournament — many thanks to our Josh for keeping us informed and for driving, many thanks to their Josh for organizing it! Our Josh took second in the dan division (congrats, Josh).<\/p>\n
It was a lot of fun, but a long day.\u00a0 All in all, I played (nearly) seven games of Go that day … including two in the car!<\/p>\n
The ratings updates for the AGA<\/a> have been posted, for those interested.\u00a0 My rank went down, even though I won three of four games and lost only to a 10k at an even game.\u00a0 Statistics are fun.<\/p>\n Speaking of …<\/p>\n I once again compiled a bit of results from the AGA and our club to make some fun little histograms.\u00a0 This time I made three:<\/p>\n There aren’t enough dan-level players in FL for reasonable statistics.\u00a0 There are 14:\u00a0 one shodan, five 2d, four 3d, and three 4d.<\/p>\n The plots show the distribution of rankings as a histogram (blue bars) and the mean and standard deviation of those ranks (in red\/pink).\u00a0 The black points at the bottom are ratings from members of our club co-plotted onto the histogram.\u00a0 For the kyu players, I took their self-rank … for those that I do not have a “?” on, or their KGS rank failing that.\u00a0 For the dan players, I just took AGA rank.<\/p>\n The reason I chose their self-rank is a personal bias:\u00a0 I think our self-assessment is more correct than the AGA rating currently.\u00a0 I can re-run the numbers with the official ratings if people care (or you can just look them up and see where you stand on the histogram).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Four of us drove to Ft.
