A Better Method: How Long Does It Take To Become President?
Hello all, while I did do an update to the Original Version of this article only about a month ago, the esteemed writer of the Panda's Pen Calvin Coolidge pointed out that the method of using join date for that article was inherently flawed. Thus when Calvin put out this elite ovation article he used the better method of citizenship application date and was kind enough to share that data with me, thus making this article a lot easier to make. So a huge shout out to Calvin at the top here.
In total switching over to Citizenship Application date decreased the total time to presidency by 2052 days total. Bellow you can see everyone who benefited. Clearly NES received the most significant benefit with over two years being wiped from their total time. A bunch of people ended up being about one day difference between when they created their forum account and when they applied for citizenship.
Type | Old Method | New Method |
With Outliers | 720 | 593 |
Without Outliers | 668 | 627 |
In the above table you can see the huge impact this method change caused. For one dropping the outliers now raises the average as the outliers are now entirely people who reach the "Presidency" by ascending from the Vice-Presidency, the vast majority took less than the average. All in all this drops the average time to "Presidency" from two years to about a year and a half.
Anyway thanks for reading yet another piece by the ERI. Additionally, I'm thinking of trying something new with this outlet and that is a regular release schedule! I'm going to try to get articles out on a by-weekly basis, hopefully every other Saturday. I have a bit of a backlog of article ideas and hopefully setting up a timeline with help get them done and out to my wonderful readers! Though if you have any research topics you would like me to look into definetly reach out via DM and let me know!
