The performance of various TBR drop catchers is being tracked over the first 5 months of 2013 with the aim of finding the best places to backorder a .ca domain that is being released through TBR. We document the top 3 spots and award 3 points to first spot catcher, two points to second spot catcher and one point to third spot catcher. So there are a total of 6 points to be earned each week.
Final Rankings:
As of May 29, 2013 (22 TBR sessions, 132 points total), MyID.ca leads the race with a very comfortable margin:
MyID.ca 66 points (50%)
Sibername: 40 points (30.3%)
Pool: 20 points (15.15%)
Relevant links for the top 3 TBR drop catchers as per rankings are:
MyID.ca TBR system: https://www.myid.ca/tbr
Sibername TBR system: http://tbr.sibername.com
Pool TBR system: https://www.pool.com/addBackorders.aspx
---------------------------------------
I thought it would be a good idea to check the performance of the various TBR providers over a number of weeks based on the published results of each TBR session. My sources for the results are those published publicly each week by Burmac, MyID.ca, and Sibername. These were cross referenced with each other to ensure accuracy.
I initially planned on tracking the providers that registered the first 10 results each week but that ended up quite a huge task to do as many TBR providers have numerous registrars that in many cases are not obviously linked together (with the exception of MyID.ca which has its name in all its registrars). So I ended up settling for 3. I suggest we keep tracking week after week of at least the 3 top regs and their registrars. This will become a great place of historical value where we can find top 3 names in TBR each week and the corresponding registrars that got them.
And I thought we keep a running score to see who ends up most at top 3 throughout 2013. Bets anyone?
If anyone else would like to extend this exercise to more than 3 top results, it would be great and appreciated. The more the merrier. Just be warned that this is quite time consuming as I came to learn.
So without further due, here are the top 3 TBR results from Jan 2, 2013 till Feb 13, 2013. That's a total of 7 weeks or 21 top 3 spots.
These 21 spots were spread as follows:
MyID.ca : 12 spots!!! (4 x rank 1, 5 x rank 2, 3 x rank 3)
Pool: 3 spots (1 x rank 1, 1 x rank 2, 1 x rank 3)
Sibername: 3 spots (1 x rank 1, 0 x rank 2, 2 x rank 3)
Fastweb: 2 spots (1 x rank 1, 1 x rank 2, 0 x rank 3)
Koallo: 1 spot (0 x rank 1, 0 x rank 2, 1 x rank 3)
Surprisingly enough, MyID.ca took 12 out of the available 21 top 3 spots and all the other players took 9! So at this time, MyID.ca is the clear winner of this race. But the year is just beginning and things can surely change
