I legitimately did not expect to do that well.
If I have done better than others, it is because I have stood on the shoulders of, uh, ogres at least.
I’ve gotten two morals from this. The good moral is ‘Even if you have no idea what is going on, you can still data science at something.’
The bad moral is ‘When in doubt, crib other people’s notes (only be sure always to call it please ‘research’).′
Man, it’s hard to say “check your work” without being rude. I understood about half of what you said, so your analysis was almost certainly better than my very basic one. But according to my basic analysis you’ve submitted an elementally imbalanced team which manages to also be weak. Um, no offense. Sorry. It’s just I’d want someone to correct me if I looked wrong.
