TAR US Non-Elimination Leg Stats
« on: September 07, 2014, 03:59:57 PM »
Here are the screenshots of my NEL Stats spreadsheet that I created (on my computer, so I can't link to it.) Undoubtedly I have made an error or two, so please tell me!

My findings:
Jamaica, Macau, Mauritius, Mozambique, Senegal, and Seychelles all have had 1 leg and 1 NEL, the only countries to have a 100% NEL rate. Hong Kong is second with 3 visits and 2 NELs.

Argentina is the most-visited country not to have a NEL.

India, with 5, has had the most NELs. The USA, Russia, and Thailand all have had 4. The USA's 4 came from Leg 12s on seasons 1 and 2, and then 2 in the Family Edition. Finish lines are not included in the USA count.

Africa has the highest percentage of NELs. 32.26% of all African legs are non-elimination, followed by Asia with 31.82%.
*0* out of the 26 South America legs were non-elimination.

It's probably because South America legs are the first few legs in the race, and there isn't usually a Leg 1 or 2 NEL. But it's still a shocking fact; you'd think that there would be at least one!

Just imagine what this graph would be if you took international versions into account.

I'm guessing you didn't count keep on racing legs to be non elimination?
It's Clobbering Time!

Nope.
