    Re: Fun With Numbers 2018: Pairwise, KRACH, GRaNT, and other mathematical excitement

    I have this year's Tournament Predictor ready to go for February 18th but I'm always happy to have some people beta test the new changes before it goes live. If anyone's interested, shoot me an email at grant dot salzano at gmail and I'll send you the spreadsheet.

    The Tournament Predictor is this: https://***********/Salzano14/status/961770250034434048

      FYI -- it took most of the year but USCHO's Pairwise is now correct

              Just remember that the CHA has as many championship game appearances as does BC, although only half as many as BU does.

                  Losing to Mercyhurst in the semis doesn't make it hurt any less.

                        I just found out that the independents are actually holding a postseason tournament, so I had to factor that into the calculator. This took a lot of work, and with a lot of work comes a lot of opportunities for errors, so if any of you that reached out before would like to play with the new version just let me know lol

                          Did some fun stuff with KRACH to determine the odds of each team winning its conference tournament: https://www.bcinterruption.com/bosto...ton-college-bc

                            I can't get past the name of this thread. those are 2 words that you can bet have never come out of my mouth. I can't even type them.

                            Thank God there's someone here that can figure out the possibilities...and thank God it isn't me.
