RPG Darlington Michael

Michael McGaha 5 May 2005 22:41:10
 1: Someone will remind me before the race that I'm not supposed to be making
predictions based on the RPG game itself, but only on the NASCAR races.

just kidding

1: Mark Martin finishes in front of Kurt Bush

2: The first caution occurs in the first 9 laps. BEFORE the leader starts
the 10th lap.

3: Mark Martin either goes up in points, OR goes up in position. (The reason
I say it this way, is he went up in points last week but DROPPED in
position)

4: the M&M Car finishes at least 2 laps down

5: Since the first time I fail to predict this he gets a top 10... Kenny
Schrader gets a top 20


Bonus: There will be less than 1 tenth of a second between 1st and 2nd place
at the end of the race AND the cars will be touching going across the finish
line AND they end up spinning after the finish line... They don't have to
hit anything, but it's ok if they do, but they'll basically "wreck each
other" trying for the win.

Bonus 2: IF bonus one happens, it'll be team mates that are 1st and 2nd

Can I have 2 bonuses?

Michael

You DO know that the way you worded this means it will be an either/or
situation. If he goes up in points AND in position, you'll be at -1.

Huh? I assume by "up in position" you mean "gains at least one
position in the point standings".

"Up in points"? Doesn't everbody in the field go up in points (i.e has
more points after the race than when they started)? You'll have to
explain this to an old man who doesn't understand what you're really
predicting here.

No Cindy, boolean logic states that x or y is true if either or both of x,
y are true.

You're thinking of the function XOR which is an exclusive OR -- true if x is
true and y is false, true if x is false and y is true, false if x,y are both
true.

We could also use NOR (true if either or both are false) or NAND (true if
both are false)

No, well credit you with one if either happens though. (since if #2 happens
#1 has already happened)

You're technically correct, I think what he means is he will eithere "gain
points on the leader" or "gain positions on the leader".

ok... Ammended...
3: Mark Martin either goes up in points, AND/OR goes up in position. (The
reason
I say it this way, is he went up in points last week but DROPPED in
position) So this weekend he won't drop in both.

"either A or B" is a boolean exclusive or. "A or B" is a simple
boolean or. In the first case the "not both" is implicit.

Cindy is correct.

logic functions with transistors)
