Hi Tom,
Thanks for your helpful blog. Might there be a way for you to create some permanent links to your original posts which describe each model that you update each week? For example, how the numbers are calculated, the numeric range for each metric, etc. I tried to search for the intro posts but I couldn't find them. Also I suspect that some useful info about each model is hidden in the comments over the years. I'm especially interested in Strategy 3 and 4.
Thanks!

Will do. Strategy 3 & 4 are the easiest to explain.
