Do these gammon values at 2 away n away scores make sense?

These are gammon values on a 2 cube for the n away player obtained from gnu using g11 with extension to 25 pts using Claes Tornberg's MEC. Some are given to 4 dp because it may be noteworthy that they were round numbers.

It makes me think something is wrong with the MET. Is there a recommended MET other than this one for match lengths from 12 to 25?

When n gets large I think the gammon values should settle down to a limit with perhaps an odd even effect. The combination of GV at 22 away and 24 away stands out.

For benefit of those not named John O Hagan here is a list:

n = 8 GV on 2 = .66

n = 9 GV on 2 = .64

n = 10 GV on 2 = .62

n = 11 GV on 2 = .62

n = 12 GV on 2 = .64

n = 13 GV on 2 = .64 (This and previous 5 are all from .62 to .66, consistent with my expectation)

n = 14 GV on 2 = .46 Big sudden drop, possibly due to break in MET

n = 15 GV on 2 = .43

n = 16 GV on 2 = .65

n = 17 GV on 2 = 6400

n = 18 GV on 2 = .63

n = 19 Gv on 2 = .56

n = 20 GV on 2 = .58

n = 21 GV on 2 = .6000

n = 22 GV on 2 = .71 Suddenly a lot higher.

n = 23 GV on 2 = .67

n = 24 GV on 2 = .4000 And now very low

n = 25 GV on 2 = .5000

    • Maik, your table was extended to 25 pts?
