So I've been at the old mopolauta to see my posts that I have written some time ago when I suddenly came over a topic with the exact same name as this one.
I wrote:
Well, I still think some of it makes sense, but I have to admit that I think elma will be played professionally in 2005-06.I don't mean to be negative or something. But what are the chances for that elma will be played "proffesionally" in 2005-06? Pretty low i think. I also think the times will be pretty unbeatable in as early as 2004 and over..so (not to sound negative) i think this competition is born dead...
Later in the topic, i wrote this:
And Abula answerd as following:Face it Abula, this wasn't a good idea for contest
I checked in the news archive if there were any updates concerning this forecast flop, and guess what? I was right.I thought that much more ppl would like this compo, I was wrong but it wasn't a mistake. You don't have to hoyl days but just 30 minutes. But I didn't notice that most Elma players play Elma just because of that hoyling and not thinking things like this. I'm a statistics freak (as some of you has probably noticed) and I consider Elma Forecast much.
Elma Forecast would be much better if there were several forecasters. That's why I'm trying to get ppl waste their time 30 minutes for this contest.
I'm pretty sure there will be at least 10 forecasters totally. After 5 years we will have funny with these. Maybe I will give some awesome prize for the winner.
But enough about that, my questions is very simple:
Abula: Do you still think it is a good idea with this forecast? Hows the results coming? Havning fun?
HAHA!
Guess that was all folks.
(I will however take responsibility if something I wrote was incorrect. The thing is that I didn't bother to read through the whole news archive to see if there has been anything written about the forecast comp other than on the checkingdates.)
