I'd like to mention that alien-in-training, Markko Nippula, who hasn't finished with anything worse than a -6 Y-index since TPR(0,1) has a Y-index of 143. That is the downfall of the Y-index, if your first outing is bad, you're screwed for life. At his current pace, Markko would need 18 more months of monthly golf tournaments just to get back to a Y-index of 0. Hmm, even after that little rant, I don't feel any better.
