Community Classic Domination: A Project

just dedicated and consistent but ty

 

really cool

 

smaller progress update: gonna be trying from here on out to keep my 2nd pass consistently at 5k IDs behind my first pass. Currently I am at ID 7500 on my first and ID 2500 on my second. Here are my stats:
#1: 1664
#2: 1230
#3: 913
#4: 742
#5: 622
#6: 494
#7: 396
#8: 365
#9: 257
#10: 183
N/A: 3240
Also worth noting that I am very close to achieving another goal mentioned in a previous post of getting 500 6th places and 400 7th places. haven't been aiming for them specifically but i've been trying to improve ghosts that end up below those and not improving ones that people beat that push me into those ranges, just to round things out. probably will finish that up within a week. from there on it's just grinding out ghosts, nothing specific in mind.

 

alright SO I have hit a bunch of interesting little milestones in the past couple of days. This is my current breakdown:
#1: 1693
#2: 1254
#3: 927
#4: 763
#5: 634
#6: 507
#7: 405
#8: 377
#9: 262
#10: 178
N/A: 3106
here's all the little goals I've surpassed that I'd like to share:
1. 2/3s of the way through the IDs on my first pass (2/3s was at ID 7738, I am at 7750 now)
2. 7000 top 10's (10106 - 3106 = 7000)
3. 400 7th places and 500 6th places (rounds out my goal for having the next hundred of every placement up from 10)
4. 1/6 comm classics are a FIRST place for me (10106 / 6 = 1685, I have 1693 now) This is the craziest one to me!!!!
5. Over 50% of comm classics are a TOP 5 for me (10106 / 2 = 5053, I have 5271. Did this awhile ago but didn't notice )
some pretty wild stats tbh lol. kinda crazy i've gotten this far and I still have so far to go.
totoca was able to delete about 20-30 or so random hacked ghosts I had compiled several days ago. I have a list with about 300 more that he has not gotten to (but plans to). I am also still finding more as I work my way through the tracks so that little project isn't done either lol.
not sure what major milestone to work towards next. we'll see.

 

I would've been a part of this if it wasn't for my erratic schedule

 

this is strictly a solo/personal project. i'd love some competition tho

Less than 3000 tracks to go! also have over 70% of tracks in a top 10 position.
First pass: ID 8000
Second pass: ID 3000

 

that's fair lol, If i was wanting to start this project now instead of when I did then I don't think I'd be able to commit. but now being 7k tracks in it's another story. I see the finish line lol

Edit: although competition on the short tracks within the subset of community classics would be welcome considering the fact that I have 180 10th places, you can pretty easily knock me down one small peg by beating me on any of those

I'll probably make an update post for every 250 tracks for both passes. Currently 71.8% of the way though with all top 10's. Also improved a handful of low placing times I had to even out my placements a bit.
Progress is a bit slow as it's hard to stay motivated and I am busy with work often. If all the hacked ghosts were cleaned up it'd be a solid motivation boost as I'd have at least decently accurate numbers for the first time but that's pretty much it. The later into the IDs you go, the more dookie the average track is it seems.

Currently 73.4% of the way though with all top 10's. Might as well be 75%. Almost to 1000 3rd places which is cool.

 

lots of big news! calc was able to wipe EVERY cheated community classic time that I know of, which has helped my rankings by a solid bit. I have also progressed another 250 tracks for both passes (8750 and 3750 respectively)

I currently have 7580 top 10 community classic times. aka exactly 75%!!!!! for 3 of every 4 community classics you play I am on the leaderboard. such a crazy thing to say

 

update: 9k and 4k on my first and second passes respectively. these past few have taken me awhile because they've been brutally painful to play. at some point in the IDs, the tracks went from randomly distributed to being grouped by author which means I play a bunch of tracks from the same author in a row. this leads to playing a lot of god awful tracks in a row. for example, ID 8725-8803 are all jaketocake tracks, about half of which are just trash and not fun. ID 8845-8901 are all LDPrider tracks, a bunch of which are hard trials. just not enjoyable and quick to play.

lots of records! over 700 5th's and 1000 3rds. top 10 on 76.4% of tracks.

 

I'm gonna assume you used a program to track your position on each track, and it wasn't done by hand

 

yes I have a script that I run every so often that goes through all the community classics and spits out my rank on them all

 

another 250 tracks down in both passes

kind of a mind numbing project at this point but yknow
top 10 on 78.1% of tracks
top 5 on 59.3% of tracks
top 3 on 43.6% of tracks
top 1 on 19.5% of tracks (almost 1 in 5 wtffff)

 

Sorry for the break, lack of motivation + other projects + work/personal life have gotten in the way. I did want to get through another 250 tracks before the end of august though and here I am.
up to ID 9500/4500

In 10 more first places I will have 1st on 1 in 5 community classics

 

small itty bitty update
haven't gotten through anymore tracks chronologically but I grinded out some random stuff I saw and/or got beaten on/had skipped over etc.

1/5 comm classics are a first for me and I am under the 2000 mark for tracks remaining. this is probably my last notable activity for the month and as such I am once again going to post my full list in the ghosting channel in the frhd discord server

we're getting close

goal this month is 50 IDs a day aka 250 every 5 days meaning a new update post every 5 days. we'll see how it pans out. if I keep up the pace then I will reach the last ID by the end of September and be done with the majority of the project. wish me luck

 

Another 250 tracks down and these are exciting ones. ID 10000/5000. only 1000 more to go! (or so)

Top 5: 62.7%
Top 10: 82.6%

Pretty soon I will be in a podium position on HALF of all community classic tracks. Absolutely nuts. Hopefully I can keep with my pace so far. I also went back and cleared a handful of previously skipped over tracks. There is still a lot of junk I've skipped over but I will get to it eventually, just don't wanna focus on those while there are still good, easy, short tracks I have to beat

 

another 5 days, another 250 tracks, another update:
