[kerrfunk]

Well my count is:
15 votes total.
baat, 1
spyder, 1
trevor, 2
marvin, 5
jedz, 6

I tallied the votes two separate times and got the same results.
Jedz for his second win, and the second consecutive winning weeks in 2019.

We've had sixteen different winners.

Additional statistics. Out of 33 weeks so far:

25 participants have submitted at least one photo this year. 18 have submitted at least five. 12 have submitted more than 17 photos.
burque and redman have submitted photos the most, at 32 and 30.

26 participants have voted at least one time this year. 22 have voted at least five times. 10 have voted more than 17 times.
gustov, burque, kerrfunk, dorkburger, and rich have voted the most, at 30, 29, 29, 29, and 28 times.

A few have submitted at least one photo but have never voted, and a few have voted at least once but never submitted a photo.

Here's where we've been; what do you have for us next, Justin?

Jedz for his second win, ...................

Hum.... Someone needs to walk into his wedding ceremony and tap him on the shoulder.......

Oh, Hey, Kerry, you could have your clerical vestments and just walk in up front . . . . . .

.....
We've had sixteen different winners.

Thanks for the statistics.
I wonder if you have a spreedsheet, and then you sort, then count yourself.
Or if you have a database and run reports.... or what.

Pondering some other interesting statistics. . . . . . har har har

I will mention it to him but he may not have time for this. Just this once know what I mean?

Maybe when they say," does anyone have reason this union should not etc. Or forever hold your....."

 

[Redman]

I will mention it to him but he may not have time for this. .... ... .."

Hey, we can be reasonable. Yah, we could wait till tommorow.

The "does anyone have any reason..." would be good opportunity to bring this up.

 

[kerrfunk]

Thanks for the statistics.
I wonder if you have a spreedsheet, and then you sort, then count yourself.
Or if you have a database and run reports.... or what.

I have a spreadsheet. I manually enter each week's submissions, and I have a command that counts how many submissions this week.
I manually enter each person's vote, and I have a command that tallies everybody's votes, and another command that checks the tally.
Then I manually enter how many times a person has won.



This morning I added three columns and wrote a command to count how many times a person has submitted a photo, and how many times a person has voted, and I also tallied how many votes each person has gotten (but I didn't share that information with people. Maybe another time.)

Then I just sorted the data so I could report what I thought was interesting.

The apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
My dad has tracked his bicycle miles since 1988 -- he's currently a bit over 49,800 miles, just over two equatorial circumnavigations of the earth.
He knows how many countries each member of our family has been in, and he's got a flag on display for each one. My brother has been to about 80.
He also keeps track of which "heritage engines" (trains) he's spotted (he lives across the street from a busy train line).
So tracking voting like this naturally appeals to me is what I'm saying

And having you do previous theme records appeals to me, (since I don't have to do it anymore)

Hum .... a lot of functionality for a spreadsheet. Impressive.

I recall you saying your dad did things like that, and likes going to road numbers that equall his age. And you ride with him, so intersections of his and your age are a target.

Ya know? I use Excel every day. I know the program quite well. But, never think of using it for anything outside of work. Never even crosses my mind. I was very impressed (a long dam time ago now) with Steve's Valve adjustment sheet. Funny how work seems to stay at work for certain things... I feel confident that I can speak for most of us here, when I say, thanks for staying on top of these statistics Kerry. Great job, you deserve a raise...

And that's just one of the 34 pages of my Master Spreadsheet.

Thank you kindly. 5% would do nicely, I think, on top of the zero dollar salary I get.

Besides tracking the maintenance on the bikes, I only use Excel to help with the budget. Great on you Kerry

I've got a wonderful budget spreadsheet. Been using it for years.
All my online accounts are in another, with user names, passwords, renewal dates, and cost. (This is mostly for my wife if anything happens to me.)
When we bought our house in TN, we used excel to make our pick, out of the final three. Used weighted averages, on key features.
Excel is one of the things I learned at work, that I use at home all the time.

And congratulations Jedz123/Justin and your beautiful new wife, Shannon!

 

[Jedz123]

Hey team!!
I apologize but I'm just now plugging back in. I ended up putting on the show myself and my groomsman really pulled through for me to in setting up our event. Super sore this morning but we are officially hitched.
So this week's theme, Hallowed Ground:

This is the alter of our wedding from over the weekend. Also the spot (most of the time) of our NE GSR meet. Shannon came up one year with me and said... I want to get maried here. So... I made it So.
Shan at the NE GSR watching the sun set:

(Not the entry pic)
It was a very motorcycle themed wedding and the weather did go sour for a little bit but I was told by many it was an exceptional wedding.


Sorry for the delay! Theme is a place where you find to be Hallowed/Holy.. Will also accept churches or other places of worship or statues of any denomination. Maybe it is just a perfect view (like this) where ever you fell "hooked" in with the universe works.

Have an awesome day guys,

 

[storm 64]

Awesome Jedz, CONGRATULATIONS!

 

[dorkburger]

Congratulations Justin. Wishing the new couple much happiness.
..... and no need to apologize for the delay.

 

[Baatfam]

Do we want to hold the voting off until the week after? Vote on the 30th?

It is a great theme idea, and some may want/need more than 3-4 days to work on it.

Just a thought. I am good either way.

I think most people use old photos anyway...I see no need to wait another week. Too many posts in between

 

[kerrfunk]

I think no need to wait a week. Afterall, it IS just for funsies.
Congrats, Justin! Do you have more wedding pix to share? (although I guess probably not in this thread, lol)

 

[Redman]

Congrats Jedz & Shan.

Perhaps someone can point us to pics on FB or someplace else.

THis is not a submission, since is not my bike, is my picture, is my daughter - on her wedding day (2010). Directly after the ceremony (which was on on the beach there).
And doesnt match the category as stated.
