Odd WCA stats/ Stats request Thread

Torch said:
OK, this is really weird.

For some reason, on April 18th, the competition results announcements on the WCA switched from normal:

Michał Rzewuski won the GLS Cup II 2016 with an average of 9.70 seconds. Kalina Brzezińska finished second (10.05) and Tomas Jankauskas finished third (10.12).

to this:

Edoardo Annesi won the the Small Cubingitaly 2016 with an average of 11.54 seconds. Marco Rota finished second (12.39) and Matteo Provasi finished third (12.62).

Notice the extra "the". Every announcement since then has had the extra "the". I wonder why?

Maybe someone changed the template code to XXX won the XXX in XXX from XXX won XXX in XXX and quite a lot of comps use the as the first bit
 
Which is the sub-50 4x4 avg with highest standard deviation? It can only be sub-50.
I did an avg which was 47, 37, 1:05, 50, 36, and I wonder if there is any sub-50 4x4 average with a higher st dev than that one xD
 
The percentage of new competitors competing in each event in their first competition:

Done in R. I was investigating whether big BLD is becoming more or less popular. It seems that the number of big BLD results is increasing year on year, and the number of new competitors competing in it is increasing, the percentage of new competitors that do is actually dropping. I'll add the code once I clean it up.

Edit: took off code temporarily.

What is this?
Click to expand...
Nemesis list. Someone is your 'nemesis' if they have a better result than you in everything you have competed in (all events, single & average). The file has someone's WCA ID, how many nemeses they have, and who they are. I only did up to 9 nemeses because there were already almost 1000 people in the list.
 
Who has the highest sum of ranks and yet has no nemeses?
(One could theoretically get WR for 5bld and do nothing else and earn this 'title' but obviously this hasn't happened)
