sallycinnamon Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 I've just sent my predictions, too! Thanks for doing this game again, @Old Cat Lady Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Cat Lady Posted January 22, 2020 Author Share Posted January 22, 2020 OMG! I just realized that I forgot about Papadakis/Cizeron when doing my predictions even though they're in one of the questions that I made! Not going to change it since the only reason I caught it was because I was checking who got their predictions in - feels like cheating since no one else gets that @Sayu93 Can you specify the order of the Triple A? I only give points within 1 placement difference so can't assume points without knowing who's where. As long as it's changed before the ladies SP you can still get full credit. Also, for everyone - if you don't specify placement I assume you mean in the order that you listed them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did say the russians didn't I Oh you meant individual placing Kosto, truso, shcherba .I hope I read everything right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Cat Lady Posted January 23, 2020 Author Share Posted January 23, 2020 Yup. I meant individual placements. Also, I realized I worded BQ5 horribly in an attempt to give you guys new questions. The Euros field is so big that skaters are inevitably going to compete against skaters they haven't competed against this season. I'm thinking I'll eliminate that question from the scoring because I can see how people might misinterpret that question and I'm not trying to "get" people with trick questions, especially since not everyone speaks English as their first language. If anyone has any suggestions on a different way to deal with it, let me know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
river Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 I think just dropping BQ5 is fair if the wording is confusing. Well. Men have already completely destroyed my predictions. I don’t think anyone saw that coming, so I guess we’re all in trouble there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Cat Lady Posted January 28, 2020 Author Share Posted January 28, 2020 This was a bit of a learning experience - I found that the questions needed to be adjusted when there's a bigger field. There were a few wording problems with the questions so I dropped the 5th BQ and on the 3rd BQ, nobody got +5 GOE elements either before or after factoring so luckily it didn't affect the score. I gave everyone the points since I did not give a tie option. Remember I have the accuracy of an average technical panel so here are everyone's answers so you can check your score - don't hesitate to speak up if something is off. I've long accepted that I'm quite absent minded https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1SCQsBd-R2AY3j6RqUT0-BK5AvfEvde6su0qYNwAb5FE/edit?usp=sharing Answer Key Men's Podium 1. Dmitri Aliev 2.

I believe this was the most tightly contested event. Sorry about the mishaps along the way. If Yuzu keeps competing, this will be a practice run for the games coming up so hopefully I work out the kinks. River still has quite the lead in the overall so I think I'm going to rig the bonus questions to give people a chance to catch up - just like the real ISU Of course, the likelihood is that she'll end up lapping us since I'll still try to make it actually fair. @airi @Figure_Frenzy @LadyLou @Louitunes @mercedes @ralucutzagy @river @sallycinnamon @Sayu93 @TeaFrida Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also made a slight change to the scoring format. As usual, I omitted the men's podium from the predictions because of jinx factor and added extra bonus questions. But in this one, for the 3 questions in which you can check multiple boxes, I'm going to score it so you get 1 point for each correct answer, but subtract one point for each one you get wrong, meaning questions 8-10 are worth anywhere from -20 to +20 points.

EisElle Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 LMAO how did I end up with a respectable placement despite bombing the men and most bonus question too? I guess most of us equally bombed men predictions and I should be thankful that some of you forgot P/C also, thanking pair and ladies, must be the first time I get ladies 100% correctly wow thankful for the omission of 4CC men predictions, especially after what's happened at Euros the fear of jinxing would have been too much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sallycinnamon Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 I knew I bombed the mens prediction, the rest was quite OK. I always got the bonus questions wrong before but this time I somehow managed to answer them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a passport bonus, after all. I don't think I've ever gotten zero points on a podium guess before - but then again, nobody did all that well for the men's segment. Who would have guessed, honestly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Louitunes Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 Well that was a bit of a joy ride!!!! BQs in the main total guesses and fully expecting not to do as well as last predictions (rather a surprise I must say). Wishing all competitors the very best of luck and looking forward to an exciting competition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
