Freezing Saddles Technology - 2020 Thread

[LhasaCM]

Thank you tech guys for all you do for BAFS.
I biked 13 miles today in 2 Strava rides. Per the BAFS General Info Sticky I should get 68 points but the Individual Leaderboard (Text) has me at 78 points. I might have been awarded 10 pts for my first ride plus another 10 for my 2nd ride? Not sure how far this extends on the leaderboard.

I think that's right. You get the 10 bonus points for having ridden at least one mile plus the 55 points for 10 miles (10+9+8+7+6+5+4+3+2+1) plus 3 points for the one point per mile over 10 for the day.

It should only be one point, not three, for each mile over 10 for the day.

Yep. Reordered my thought and didn't go back and proofread. Website is correct; post was not

One of my favorite things to do is look at the photos on the home page. Fun!

In the past I believe the photos included reference to who posted them. This year there is no attribution. Any way we can add that?

Also, is the web site picking up photos from Instagram? If so, what is the appropriate hashtag?

Thanks!

The attribution is included if the photo is clicked on. As best I remember, that's the way it was in previous years, too.

I did two rides yesterday for a total of 53 miles, and was awarded 118 points. Still trying to figure out where the "extra" ten points came from. 65 + 43 = 108...

There's a 10 point bonus per ride day.

I already figured that in, with the "base" total of 65 for the first ten miles, per the FAQ (see below). It seems like the scoring system is awarding one additional point for each mile, not one additional point for each mile over ten as described above.

Cheat Sheet for the Mathematically Challenged
Miles = Points
1 = 20
2 = 29
3 = 37
4 = 44
5 = 50
6 = 55
7 = 59
8 = 62
9 = 64
10 = 65
11 = 66...

Take my current score of 196, covering two days of riding, total of 66 miles. 65 + 65 + 66 = 196.

Does any of this really matter? Maybe I should just go for a ride and forget about the forensic accounting.

The scoring system will get straightened out before it matters. Go ride.

Yes - a bonus 10 points for you. All subject to change, and no, it doesn't really matter.
