If you're bored, you may try solve the riddle (Adrieverhoef will act as solvant I'm sure): The Results Status page has an API to extract the data with many fields most are unawares about. In amongst there's ResultId and WorkUnitId. Both are progressive and periodically set back a few hundred million in counter, so as to ensure the database has unique numbers for active results. Notably that reset was recently undertaken for WorkUnitId (for short WUid), where this is, I think, the secondary numeric key of a task. Now the puzzle. When sorting on what I think being the primary key, ResultId, the WUid key is not increasing upwards, but jumps up and down. And the highlighted in blue have a nice 1,2,3 order, no gap, though the result names follow a different order yet again.
ResultId WorkUnitId 1606071060 136113100 1606073963 136113911 1606081165 137008632< FAHV_1003183_3j3y-7H-P3_16393_0 1606081575 137008633< FAHV_1003183_3j3y-7H-P3_16395_0 1606081653 137008634< FAHV_1003183_3j3y-7H-P3_16394_0 1606082008 137009267 1606082462 137009385 1606082502 137009445 1606088019 137014643 1606104320 136128193\/ 1606104346 136128090\/ 1606104351 136128194^ 1606220890 137128389^ 1606307576 136407693\/ 1606346867 136427067 1606354710 136432092 1606451535 136463618 1606459152 136478733 1606562567 136533832 Figure this.

Nobody has posted an answer yet, I'll rephrase the question.
In sports, if ST yields GD, and if ND yields SR, what does RD yield? |

If Summer Time yields Great Days and if November Days yield Steady Rain what does Rainy Days yield ?
----------------------------------------WG: Wet Ground Yeah I know its not sport related and I used two different words for both the "S" and the "G", but since nobody else has tried this I thought at least this makes a little sense. Good puzzle. Cheers
