| Jan-16-16 | | YouRang: <lostemperor> Oops sorry. If you can add <14.Eljanov> to mine, that would be okay, but I understand if it's too late. |
|
Jan-16-16
 | | lostemperor: <YouRang> I figured Eljanov must be #14 in your predictions and so put it into the CONMAN. Anyway it seems unable to take out contestants already in, even if I wanted it to (which I dont:) |

| | lostemperor: As an exception I have a comment after only one round: <Robin01> who also had a machine unreadable prediction format, though legal since it was not mentioned otherwise, drew first blood. <Penguincw> last in the absolute ranker, leading in the Pair bettings! <;) |

Indeed, it took me 10 minutes to find that one! |
|
Jan-16-16
 | | Penguincw: < <Penguincw> last in the absolute ranker, leading in the Pair bettings! <;) > Yeah, that thing happened at <YouRang>'s contest last year as well for me. Seems to me it's starting to emerge as more of a trend than say, a fluke or strategy. I'll have to see. |
|
| Jan-16-16 | | Karposian: I think that <Penguincw>'s result in the Absolute Ranker so far describes fairly accurately his skill level. His result so far in the Pair Betting Ranker: DUMB LUCK. |
|

| | Penguincw: < Karposian: I think that <Penguincw>'s result in the Absolute Ranker so far describes fairly accurately his skill level. > Which ranker most accurately describes your skill? Absolute, Square or Betting? < His result so far in the Pair Betting Ranker: DUMB LUCK. > I actually agree with this statement, but I've got first place 4 times before in Betting Ranker in this contest, an honour not many users have accomplished. Seriously, when are <you> going to start filling up your trophy case in this contest? Even in my weakest contest, I won 3 golds in it. |
|
| Jan-16-16 | | Karposian: <Penguincw: Seriously, when are <you> going to start filling up your trophy case in this contest? Even in my weakest contest, I won 3 golds in it.> What you fail to mention is that I actually won medals in all three rankers in the LCC contest. Unfortunately for me, they didn't count in the statistics. This time it hasn't started so well, but hey, it's only one round! Eljanov losing was a big blow, however. I'm banking on him to do well, and display the high level of play he showed us at the last World Cup, where he had an excellent tournament. |

| | Penguincw: < Karposian: ...
What you fail to mention is that I actually won medals in all three rankers in the LCC contest. > What you failed to mention is 1) They were all bronze and 2) It was only for fun. When it's only for fun, people don't actually play at their full strength, which is why you were able to land on the podium. < Unfortunately for me, they didn't count in the statistics. > Even if it did count in the stats, it would just be one mere bronze. Good job, young blood. (if you choose to reply to this comment, please do so on your forum; I think it's enough here) |
