Thanks78

[Michael_Sparshatt (Michael)]

That would be great if you could use it for a full series

[Michael_Madore (Michael)]

Thanks for your efforts to provide a more fair and honest experience for all Zwifters. It is much appreciated.

James for the Community-led Events once finalised would it be possible to post a list of those groups who are participating, please.

Just so it will be easier to find the events if we (ok I mean me with my mediocre social media skills) do not already belong to those groups.

Cheers.

[James_Zwift (James)]

I’ll probably tag them so they’re easy to find.

Hey everyone - My day job is a bit busy today (and obviously I also need to Zwift).

Will try to pop back a little after 6 and respond to everything currently unanswered.

If you are interested in how it is calculated, you can check out the OP here. Note that it does not use exactly the same dataset as ZwiftPower, nor the same calculation.

Category Enforcement - How is my category calculated? [February 2022]

Hi everyone. EDIT: view this before you read anything else CE101.pdf - Google Drive I have been in dialogue with @xflintx. We have both acknowledged there have been some communication issues, but by opening a conversation hopefully we have been able to bridge the gap a bit, and for that I am thank…

As organizers start considering how they may in the future construct their events, it would be interesting to see some sort of quantitative distribution across the whole CP or whatnot spectrum for the universe of active Zwifters. Or does this exist already somewhere?

Thanks James

[James_Zwift (James)]

@Gerrie_Delport_ODZ and co - to give me any hope of supporting questions about the future test rides, can you please split the posts about how categories are calculated, etc, into the thread about how categories are calculated? Thanks.

[Jesper_ZwiftHacks]

For convenience you can filter on the ‘Category enforcement’ rule to find all relevant events at ZwiftHacks: Events

[James_Zwift (James)]

I tagged every Zwift test event with categoryenforcement if that’s what you’re using.

[Gerrie_Delport_ODZ (Gerrie)]

@James_Zwift

can you please split the posts about how categories are calculated

Not an easy task but let’s try.

[Andy_Med (Andy)]

@Jesper_ZwiftHacks and @James_Zwift thank you.

@Sandy_Thomson

Thanks @JamesBailey, would the enforcement be switched on for the selected events ONLY within these periods (and then switched off after), or would they be switched on at this point with no defined end date?

Thanks Sandy. I don’t want to promise anything at this stage, because if I committed to you running a 4 week series and then for some reason (which I sincerely hope isn’t the case) we had to pull the trial, that wouldn’t be great for you.

[sklyarov (Artyom)]

Can we just have it on for next ZRL season?

[Mark_Crane_TOG_G_65y (Mark)]

Dang, I’m so excited about this after doing just one event that I’m thinking about skipping the Rapha Rising series this weekend and doing more races! The schedule got tightened up and after complaining incessantly about the lack of early morning events in the Pacific Time Zone, I better run at least one of them…

[Oliver_ZRace_Central (Oliver Chi)]

Will the community events be using the new measures listed above? Or are those still considered the test events?
