> I would guess that maximizing the number would not always provide optimal results. I don't curl but if you ever watch curling you can see that they aren't always trying to provide full force all of the time. Sure, absolutely. > I'm sure that having a quantifiable number that gives an indication of how hard they're sweeping at any given point could be useful. This was the part I was debating. How they're weighing frequency against force to reach a unified metric. When and how much they apply that within a game is a separate issue.
