fwiw, they teach the AMERICAN MILITARY™ to bend one leg and put the foot on the ground so you can spring up, and put the same side hand on the ground behind you so you can scoot. this is probably dumb for anything but immediately regaining your feet, though.

Hey, for like 3 years I've been trying to start making a (not super-serious and lame) MMAth program that takes statistics such as submission %/#, ko %/#, decisions, etc. and builds a profile for each fighter. I may/may not use this as a Comp Sci project at some point. Anyway, I'm wondering if I would possibly have enough people to fill a thread for a bit. I mean, even if you're not willing to help out with the original algorithm design, database design (probably a single text file will do for this, but I'm open to ideas), or program functionality, I'm sure you can argue with people about facets of the program. Since it's pretty general I figured I'd throw it in here.

moww posted:I'd contribute to your thread. I've actually been wanting to do something very similar for a while now, possibly involving making a program to crawl sherdog or wikipedia to gather data. I was thinking it could just be a general MMAth thread, like a repository for crazy stat-poo poo (I'd honestly love to have whatever access dokmo has to fight info) and those sometimes-cool, sometimes-not who-beat-who flowcharts. I guess I could just throw a post in after the OP that contains vital info to the program/database and keep the thread dedicated to stats and such, or I could just make a thread for the program creation and design.

I guess I wasn't clear, but I know Java/C# and am almost done with a CS degree-- the issue is that, without some sort of web scraper, like Xguard said, almost all of the data will have to be entered by hand (well, that and we will never fully agree on algorithms, but the fact that dozens of people can potentially argue about and have input on the algorithm will put it at a very high level). However, I can autonomate a lot of the tedium from the input/editing of the database with a gui for adding, modifying, and displaying entries in the DB file (which can probably just be a delimited .txt file). If we have a set amount of people working correctly with such a program, entering x people's records into the program, I can then combine the files they create (I vaguely remember a text program that lets you merge files like this) and work it out. It'd probably be best to start with something small and visibly discrete like the UFC HW division before we move onto some all-encompassing score-jizzer for the entirety of MMA.

proof of concept posted:If you're doing this as a hobby/project that's cool, but if you're committed enough to spend money on data entry you might as well just buy a subscription to fightmetric's statistics database since they do the official stats for the UFC. They also have an api you can subscribe to if you want to throw up their stats on your web page without too much extra legwork spent on presentation. They keep their pricing for both opaque though so I imagine it could get expensive depending on your ability to negotiate with people like that. That's definitely something to look into after a proof of concept actually gets hammered out. Thanks, man.

Grifter posted:I still have a file that dokmo provided access to years ago, it basically has fighters, event names, rounds, and win methods. It's somewhat inconsistent but consistent enough that you can pull data from it fairly easily. The problem is that while it starts at UFC 1, it only goes up to 2009. I could copy it into google docs if you don't have it already. I'd like to take a look at it, at least. Sorry for falling off the face of the earth, my school does half-semesters so right now I'm in the middle of midterms week.

By committee. it's an algorithm to evaluate an opinion: "who is the better fighter?" or even something like "does _____ have a lovely ground game?" it's not some sorting algorithm that you can just sit in a dark room and autism about until one day you emerge with a stone tablet that simply says "Shannon Ritch"
