Given Melbourne's radial shape - why not use polar coordinates, with a wedge-shaped exclusion area for Port Philip Bay ... this would include the largest amount of homies with the least amount of bush time. Or am I reinventing the wheel here ... I just figure that if we're going to fuck around with the math to take the Sacred Dow's opening stat into consideration, we might as well do something about our schizophrenic graticules.
I think that the Melbourne formula should include the following modifications
1. a Log [1] function to skew results towards the CBD so we see more interesting places and less bush, (as fun as the bush can be) [2]
2. ASX 200 [3] data, not the DOW [4]. Oi oi oi.
- I agree totally, a smaller graticule closer around the CBD and surrounding suburbs would be much better. Too much bush! zorg
