Re: ACE
Hi, Not David Brown.

I apologize for not getting to you sooner about this, but I have been really busy elsewhere. However, I will try to answer your question in the best way I can.

Regarding ACE, it sums the squares of all active tropical storms at six-hour intervals. Actually calculating it would be much easier if you had a track and/or calculator.

So this is how it works - say you have a tropical storm with winds of 45 mph. Before you do any calculations, you need to convert that number into knots.

To convert from miles per hour (mph) into knots, you need to multiply the mph value by 0.868976. So for my example, you multiply 45 by 0.868976 to get 39.10392 knots. Next, you would round the calculated knot value to nearest five value (i.e. 5, 10, 15, 20, etc.). This means for my example, you round 39.10392 knots up to 40 knots.

Afterwards, you square your estimated knot value. In our example, we would perform the multiplication action 40 * 40, or 40^2, to receive a value of 1,600.

Finally, you divide your squared number by 10,000. So for the example, we divide 1,600 by 10,000 to get 0.16 (Always write this value as a decimal!).

Continue to repeat this process until your storm is no longer a tropical storm. ACE values can be very diverse. Sometimes, like in 2007, you can have a huge ACE diversity.

Also note that ACE calculations only work for tropical storms, hurricanes, and major hurricanes. You can not apply this process to tropical depressions, subtropical depressions, and subtropical storms. In theory, hypercanes and all the other crazy ratings we have here get ACE values as well, but it would be a huge pain to calculate them.

I hope this helps you a little! Feel free to voice any additional questions you have! :)

Sincerely,

Re: My HI talk page
Hello, Not David Brown.

I checked the protection settings for your page, and it appears everyone can still edit it. There is no protection for the page yet.

Hey NDB, the WINNER and RUNNER-UP has been announced at Hurricane Idol!!! Congrats to the name JIMENA (which Raraah submitted, she got an awesome surprise on her talk page) who got 18 votes and won season 4, and also a round of applause to the runner-up, MARIA (submitted by you, you'll also get a special surprise but not as special as Raraah's surprise. Look down for your gifts! :D) who got 14 votes! Now that this season has finished, you could leave a comment in the comment section of the main Hurricane Idol page saying you would like to be a host, and on October 22, I'll chose the 5 potential candidates for the host of next season! The 5 candidates will have to comment in the comment section to be selected, so make sure you won't forget! Afterwards, the 5 candidates will be voted on by the users of this wiki and the one who gets the most votes will be season 5's host! It could be you, or it could be somebody else, but still, make sure you won't forget to comment in the comment section to be selected. The auditions of season 5 will kick off November 22 and the new host will take control of the season after I step down. We'll wait a month for the auditions so the next season could live up to its name, the winter 2014-15 season! Season 4 was the autumn 2014 season. Finally, thanks for being a judge of season 4, you did a fantastic job! :D Easy job, wasn't it? You could also be a judge of season 5 if you want!

Congratulations NDB, since you submitted the runner-up Maria, I'll give you some awesome surprises! First, you can take this strawberry shortcake:

(Here it is, NDB, and you get this for your achievements!)

2023 Atlantic Hurricane Season(My Season)
Hey NOT DAVID BROWN could you read my page[2023 Atlantic Hurricane Season(My Season)]?

Thanks!

Meh
Hey, I WAS considering being co-host but things have become a bit too busy with me and my relatives..

For one we're in the process of moving to a new house, which as you'd probably imagine stresses us ALL out.

Not only that but the holidays are coming up.

That also combined with the fact that im also:

A. Working on Reconstructing Abandoned/Vandalized Seasons

B. I've got games that im currently trying to play and accomplish. (Hopefully soon one of them is GMOD)

C. I may try to redesign Hypothetical Families, Events, Volcanoes, Earthquakes, Disasters and Winter Storms.

And several other things..

So.. more than likely I may not be able to.

Sorry Dude, but I will tell you this.. if you have GMOD, maybe you and I can play together when I get it myself. :)
