Joey Posted January 10, 2018 Author Share Posted January 10, 2018 Haha, thank you everyone for your lovely replies - but aside from the stupid surgery getting in the way (and tbh, my mom ) which caused such a delay around the holidays, it is honestly not such a horrible amount of work, and as long as everyone is having fun, it is very much worth it So for me the nationals set up with the lists works well, and I kind of like the bonus questions and would keep that. I'd be fine with keeping everything the same way, but adding more placements to predict or another bonus question would be fine for me too, don't worry Another thing, Euros & 4CCs are Yuzu free, so they could be normal, but would people like to leave out predicting the men's discipline in the Olympics? I also thought about adding a round for the team event, but we could keep that to the placements of the teams and not predict the single skaters placements, so no possible jinxing Yuzu would be involved. And Canadian Nationals looks relatively easier to predict then the other 3, but if this season has taught us anything... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think skipping the men's discipline in the Olympics is a good idea, I know for a fact I won't be doing it as just thinking about it is stressful. And yes for the teams placement in the team event, although someone have to explain to me how the whole competition works first Also, I wouldn't mind more bonus questions, I quite like them (even though I usually get them wrong) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EisElle Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 Canadian predictions done! dat feeling when ISU season best and ISU personal best tell you different stories ahah, it's not like I haven't ever got safer bets screwed anyway I went for Messing silver over Kevin! (sorry, Kevin, you might have the craziest hair but I like Keegan's programs more) For pairs silver I thought "screw ISU PB", 'cause gotta cheer on team TCC Let's see if I get back on podium or I'll slip even further below ETA: about men prediction for Olys If other satellites prefer not to predict them, I'm fine with that. IIRC I still haven't had the chance to jinx Yuzu because I left men COR blank such a coward and he got silver, so I'm pretty confident my prediction for gold wouldn't jinx anyone (but hey, I've jinxed Javi COC and maybe Shoma a couple of times) I'd love to predict the teams for the team event, tho. And yay for bonus questions (but please, Joey, don't stress for our sake) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazykuroneko Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 don't forget there will be stephen gogolev in this Nats. i'm curious where he will end up hmm and yes, for Olympics let's take a safe route and leave the men's singles alone. i'm okay with other fields and team events. it will be so interesting to predict team events with the politicking ☕ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EisElle Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 I'm already mulling over the Oly team event predictions: which team should I jinx place higher, Canada or Russia? I've got a few weeks to make up my mind and let's see how Patrick will fare in the free Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joey Posted January 15, 2018 Author Share Posted January 15, 2018 Hey everyone! First off, results for Canadian nationals are in the works and will come tomorrow, together with the overall results for the Nationals prediction game. But because of Europeans being so close (the first SPs start on Wednesday), first here is the questionaire for that (and therefor for the first part of the 3rd & last round of prediction games!):https://www.flexiquiz.com/SC/N/8e3e8db4-14ce-4cf0-8b0a-212fdeab6cbf It's similar to the Nationals game, you have to name your top 3 in each discipline by writing down the names (or copying them ). But I added a second bonus question each time, because those were asked for ^_^ If anything is unclear, don't hesitate to ask. Good luck everyone and have fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EisElle Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Congrats to the medalists!!!! but why am I just off podium? argh, you bad bad Canadian Nats, you made me lose! But Gabby was a nice gold medalist so I'll take that. I only need to practice. More and more. Mm, making the predictions for Euros was surprisingly difficult, I had lots of doubts on bronze for men and ice dance and I don't even rember who I picked And I placed Maria off podium again now I'm worried for my top three Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
