 | | lostemperor: <Ragh> you will stay there for at least one more day:) |
|
| Feb-21-09 | | Ragh: <lostemperor> Just wondering why my silver and bronze medals from Corus09 not included in the Hall of Fame. May be you update it at the end of the season?! |
|
| Feb-21-09 | | just a kid: Oh my gosh!I'm in the lead! |
|
Feb-22-09
| | lostemperor: Ur good kid!
Good question <Ragh>. To be in the hall of fame you have to win at least one first prize! Other medals, you've won, will be included. I will make an update of non-gold medal winners sometime after this tournament. Maybe you can win Gold now in Linares by going up the ranker from now on! :) |
|
| Feb-22-09 | | Ragh: <lostemperor> But, I've already won a Gold medal some time Before Christ (BC) ?!?! My name's up there already in HOF. |
|
Feb-22-09
| | lostemperor: Ouch Right!! How can I have overlooked you??? That was a long time ago right?:) |
|
Feb-22-09
| | lostemperor: <Ragh> I have updated it! You didn't have your smiling avatar then, I remember:) Let me know if there are anymore prizes I have forgotten to award! |
|
Feb-23-09
| | lostemperor: I run the average predition again on the software. <EvigOptimist> who wasn't read by the software at first because of a wrong input has shared second largest deviation from the average predictions with 14 deviation points. Strange thing is that most people has an average 6-10 points difference with the average predicions. The closest was UNIBET with a 2 point difference. I was pretty close to the average predictions myself:) Here again the average predictions (I rounded it a little because of some flawed input and maybe a third place for Carlsen would be more accurate but he was close to 2nd place Aronian) : 1. 1.6,Anand,
2. 2.5,Aronian
2. 2.7,Carlsen
4. 3.5,Radjabov
5. 5.0,Ivanchuk
6. 6.0,Grischuk
6. 6.0,Dominguez
8. 6.9,Wang Yue |

| Feb-23-09 | | YouRang: <lostemperor> Cool! I don't stink (for the time being anyway). BTW, have you had any luck getting the new CONMAN software running at your site? |
|
Feb-24-09
| | lostemperor: <YouRang> well I'm also on (silver) medal spots in two of your rankers, Standard and 1-2-3, so I'm just returning the favor hehehe. I've opened the new software but encountered a problem. I mail you! |
|
| Feb-24-09 | | YouRang: <lostemperor><I mail you!> I replied via email. :-)
|
|
| Feb-24-09 | | YouRang: BTW, that "Average Prediction" report will also be affected (in the new CONMAN software) due to the revised algorithm, where we average tied ranks (2 & 2 = 2.5). |
|
Feb-24-09
 | | OhioChessFan: I'm enough of a geek to think the average tied ranks is a far better algorithm and actually care that you made the improvement. |

| Feb-27-09 | | Ragh: Hmm. Seemingly, I've solidified my position in the Square Ranker, but facing some expectedly stiff competition from my fellow Corus medalists in the other ranker. |
