chipmonk3775 Avg. Points Per Calendar Day 3,311.44444

The Team Statistics are run once a day at midnight GMT. Your personal statistics are run 4 times a day. Try checking your statistics at 0100 GMT. Your personal points should match your points contributed to your team at that time.

Thanks for the info - I'll check at 0100z

We are homing in with every iteration. If the original (my) post is the 1st, and your response is the 2nd, below is the 3rd iteration.

The individual stats are updated 4 times every 24 hours. In GMT, that would be—06:00:00, 12:00:00, 18:00:00, and 24:00:00.

The team stats are updated once every 24 hours—in GMT, that would be—23:59:58.

All indicated times are nominal and represent the time the update of the database is started (and not ended). Allow time while the database is being updated; checkout the stats about 1 hour after the indicated times.

Would the above be accurate enough?

Thanks for the link pointing to the WCGrid update times.

By the way and this is not about the times WCGrid updates its records or the like, it is about the time itself.

There is such a time as 24:00 in the same way there is 360 degrees. The 00:00 and the 24:00 refer to the same time indication and so is 0 degrees and 360 degrees refering to the same direction.

The 24 and the 360 expresses a full state returning to the start but this time on another round, much like the number 9 in going to 10. If one wants to express a full round, one would says 10 and not 0. If one wants to express a turnabout, one would say 360 degrees and not 0.

It is a false analogy because you are injecting what you want to read into the matter and then force the analogy to fit the resulting mold. Next, the succeeding arguments you used builds on that false foundation.

The item we want to measure is how much points we have AFTER some time not BEFORE. Therefore, we take a sampling at the tail end of a day not at the head: Read: 24:00 and not 00:00. And I am not referring nor was it my intention to debate how many hours there are in a day. You are the one who wanted that to be an issue.

Thus, on day 1 we take a sampling at 06:00, 12:00, 18:00, and 24:00. That last time is correctly 24:00 and not 00:00 for 00:00 would refer to the following day--day2 or to the time 00:00 of day1--which is not needed to be sampled because there is nothing there: it is the start of day1.

The problem with you is that you read into things what you want to read into it instead of listening to people and next give your best effort to make your best intelligent guess as to what they may be referring to regardless of how correctly or incorrectly they may have stated their proposition. And that was my basis back then when I indicated then that you tend to take a very mechanical point of view: you limit yourself and behave like a machine.

You are more interested in pushing your metallic ego into people’s minds than you are in listening to them, let alone any honest intention to help. And that is why the need to be agreeable with people FIRST is not a priority for you, and with it, the tactless, and repugnant words should be OK to belt out to people (or so goes the thinking). Witness the word like “unfortunate”, or “there is no need to guess”. Words that are as useless as they are unnecessary and serve no purpose other than to magnify the error, the mistake, the wrong.

This is where you thrive and this is how you work: read into people what you want to read into them and then magnify their mistakes. Make it the subject, make it the focus. Throw away what the other person MIGHT have meant. I can sense in all your posts that I had encountered, an undercurrent that speak of the negative, the defeated, the loser, the frustrated, and alas I can sense your ego is also there. When was the last time you said something agreeable or helped someone in this grid or elsewhere? Give it a try. And did you know that you can disagree without being disagreeable?
