New Standards

Before I get started, I would like to state that I'm not in favor of changing the standards.
Anyway, considering the 52 players with god time on BP flap currently, I decided to do a statistical analysis of the standards and pick better times for the outliers.  A more thorough description of what I did is posted below the link:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/bzpe1onj3und6jf/New%20Standards.xlsx?dl=0

For the analysis, I considered God+10, God, Myth D, Titan D, etc.  I inputted the amount of people who have achieved each standard and then created a 95% confidence interval.  God+10 in the only weird case because of all the courses without God+10 times.  Thus, I only used course where a God+10 had been achieved as data.  Upon creating the 95% confidence interval, anything outside that range was considered an outlier and removed from the data.  Then you have to create a new 95% confidence interval.  Rinse and Repeat the process until you have a 95% confidence interval where all the data is explained.  After this, I set out to pick new standards.  In the case of an outlier, I picked a time closer to the average.  And if it was explained, I would just keep the standard as is on the players page.  Then I used the remaining standards to fix for continuity.

Nice, I think it's useful for DKM and PB flap, which are clearly no more relevant in comparison with the others tracks. Basing the Standards on the players result can be dangerous, but as the game has more than 13 years, it's acceptable.
