Deluxe Ski Jump Forum

I have now setup a server "World Cup - Experimental" which introduces my suggestion of the new structure of Weekly Online Tournaments.

Each tournament will consists of:

• 4 ski flying hills
• 22 large hills
• 6 normal hills

The hills will be chosen randomly based on odds derived from the historical data from real World Cup / Continental Cup / FIS Cup / World Championship / Ski Flying World Championship / Olympic competitions. Oberstdorf HS137, Garmisch-Partenkirchen HS140, Innsbruck HS128 and Bischofshofen HS142 will be competed always using the KO mode.

The available hills and the relative odds of their occurence:

Imagine getting Örnsköldsvik, Pyeongchang or Eau Claire in first possible WOT...

But anyway, good change to be honest. Finally no medium hills on WOTs.

I can promise that you won't see those three ever during the same WOT.

Sounds really great, let's play and see how it works. Thanks for the effort!

EDIT: Played the cup couple times today and the hill selection is great! Very good mix of originals and customs.

I made small adjustments to the list of hills / odds to take the Olympics and World Championships into account and to fix some errors. The changes are listed in my original post. "World Cup - Experimental" server has been updated accordingly.

The new hills and the new hill selection system have now been taken into use for Weekly Online Tournaments.

Are you also planning to update the non stop world cup and warm up rooms with this new selection system? Would be nice

All the servers which have a pool of 71 hills are already using the new system.

Oberstdorf HS106 and Zhangjiakou HS140 are now included to WOTs.

Erzurum HS109 and Sochi HS106 are now included to WOTs.

Sapporo HS100, Oslo HS106 and Rovaniemi HS100 are now included to WOTs.

Notodden HS98 is now included to WOTs.

Can Trondheim HS138 be addeed to retro hills?

I already classified Trondheim HS138 as a retro hill, so it is part of the retro hills server.
But it's still also part of the WOTs (like few other recently rebuilt/still under construction hills ). Once/if we get new rebuilt versions of the hills to DSJ4 I will replace them in WOT.

Sochi HS140, Whistler HS104 and Chaykovskiy HS102 are now included to WOTs. I also replaced Zakopane HS94 with Zakopane HS105.
The odds for all hills have been updated according to latest competition data.
