2020 366-day challenge! Scoring!

Postby Sedge » Thu Jan 16, 2020 5:24 am

I'm going to get the scoring thread started here. I have a spreadsheet built to keep track of scores, and I will update the first reply to this thread to maintain a leaderboard the way I have updated the participant list in the discussion thread.

Please reply to this thread no more than once a week, and try to provide an update at least once a month. When replying to this thread, please provide the following information:

Languages/Generic or Specific:
Date of start or date your last score report was through:
Inclusive date that this score report is through:
Days studied:
Days missed:
Score you calculated for this interval:
Cumulative score:


Note that I will be calculating the scores using my spreadsheet using the days studied (+1 per day) and days missed (-1 per day), so the scores you calculate will be used to make sure that everyone is on the same page regarding scoring.

Examples:

Let's say Bob is studying Pig Latin as a specific language and also has a generic language block of Welsh and Mandarin. He started both on 1/1/2020.

On 1/7, Bob reports:
Pig Latin - Specific
1/1/2020 to 1/7/2020
Days studied: 7
Days missed: 0
Calculated score this interval: 7
Cumulative score: 7

Welsh, Mandarin - Generic
1/1/2020 to 1/7/2020
Days studied: 5
Days missed: 2
Calculated score this interval: 3
Cumulative score: 3


On 1/15, Bob checks in after having studied Pig Latin in the morning, but he hasn't studied his Generic block yet. If he still has time in the day where he would be able to study, he could report:
Pig Latin - Specific
1/8/2020 to 1/15/2020
Days studied: 7
Days missed: 1
Calculated score this interval: 6
Cumulative score: 13

Welsh, Mandarin - Generic
1/8/2020 to 1/14/2020
Days studied: 5
Days missed: 2
Calculated score this interval: 3
Cumulative score: 6

He could also elect to report only through 1/14 for both sections.

On 1/24, Bob checks in after having studied Pig Latin in the morning. He hasn't studied his Generic block yet, but it's late and he's about to go to bed without having studied. He would then report both study blocks through 1/24:
Pig Latin - Specific
1/16/2020 to 1/24/2020
Days studied: 8
Days missed: 1
Calculated score this interval: 7
Cumulative score: 20

Welsh, Mandarin - Generic
1/15/2020 to 1/24/2020
Days studied: 8
Days missed: 2
Calculated score this interval: 6
Cumulative score: 12


If this doesn't make sense, please let me know in the discussion thread.

Anyone can click History to view that only one row or line is appended to the chart everyday. The chart was created on 5 January, 2020; five days into the challenge.

I'm going to post the monthly scores as that's easier, for now I'll just keep track of missed days here and update this post as necessary (hopefully never)

Missed days count: 3+7+17+5+7+8+9+11+8+5+4
