I agree, this one looks all over the place. However, it's only 22 events, and all local. It could be random or different competition. Would like to take a look at it again at provincial.
I would expect provincial level to be more stable than lower levels. The competition is more stable. It also has less competition than what the auto provincial events have.
This one is hard to tell because when there were fewer eventers, the horses were stable. In events with more competition, the leaders are more or less stable, except a few events that I would probably say were random. For instance,
http://www.virtualhorseranch.com/events ... ent=723428 is probably a random. It looks to me like when auto events were added at the provincial level, more competition was introduced, and the horses are closer to each other in competition.

I'm not sure either. I'd like to take another look when more auto provincial events are run to see if they stabilize themselves or if it's something we need Nef to look at. It's hard to judge anything looking at just a small number of events. With just 12 events, it's hard to say if random was being brutal and hitting at a more frequent rate or if something needs to be adjusted. I will say that Nef didn't change anything within the coding for judging events when they went auto.
