Hmm, yes. Looking at a table for both, it depends on whether you think players should be able to move through multiple named positions in a single week. My feeling is no; moving a single named position should take all your savings for that week (brings stability to offices). Here's the two tables, any further thoughts looking at them? G.'s scheme: sum of all positions over which one jumps, inclusive, divided by 2: [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4] [,5] [,6] [,7] [,8] [,9] [,10] [,11] [,12] [,13] [,14] [,15] [1,] 0 8 11 13 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 [2,] 8 0 6 8 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 [3,] 11 6 0 5 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 [4,] 13 8 5 0 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 [5,] 13 8 5 2 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 [6,] 14 9 6 3 1 0 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 [7,] 15 10 7 4 2 2 0 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 [8,] 16 11 8 5 3 3 2 0 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 [9,] 17 12 9 6 4 4 3 2 0 2 3 4 5 6 7 [10,] 18 13 10 7 5 5 4 3 2 0 2 3 4 5 6 [11,] 19 14 11 8 6 6 5 4 3 2 0 2 3 4 5 [12,] 20 15 12 9 7 7 6 5 4 3 2 0 2 3 4 [13,] 21 16 13 10 8 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 0 2 3 [14,] 22 17 14 11 9 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 0 2 [15,] 23 18 15 12 10 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 0 coppro's scheme: max(# of positions jumped, difference between influences): [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4] [,5] [,6] [,7] [,8] [,9] [,10] [,11] [,12] [,13] [,14] [,15] [1,] 0 3 5 5 10 8 8 8 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 [2,] 3 0 2 2 7 5 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 [3,] 5 2 0 1 5 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 [4,] 5 2 1 0 5 3 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 [5,] 10 7 5 5 0 2 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 [6,] 8 5 3 3 2 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 [7,] 8 5 4 3 2 1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 [8,] 8 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 [9,] 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 [10,] 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 1 2 3 4 5 [11,] 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 1 2 3 4 [12,] 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 1 2 3 [13,] 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 1 2 [14,] 13 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 1 [15,] 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 -G.
