To quote Jan Verschueren
"Well, in a nutshell, the newsgroup regulars are trying to help Eldred
Pickett get faster. So when Eldred got vocal about dropping down GPLRank
there were those who started comparing themselves to him, so eventually the
idea for an "Eldred"-rank, a rank with Eldred's total time as a benchmark,
was brought up and implemented. -All in good humour, of course."

or to put it another way:

"The Eldred Cup is the backmarker index, if you're in there, you're a
backmarker."

Uwe simply renamed EldredRank to St Eldred's Cup. And if you have to ask
who Eldred is...well then you haven't been reading RAS lately ;)
