Grand Blitz Tournament - EPC Proposals/Vote

[beachknight]

Oh noooo.

Things are getting more and more complicated.

I voted for following two options:

- Predict the top 3, Middle 3, and bottom 3

- Predict the Top 5 + Bottom 5

I would have proposed:

-- predict mod(5) engines, ie 5th, 10th, 15th, ..., 50th, ...

best,

I think that predicting the Bottom 5 don't make any sense since I'd be adding some reserve engines (of ratings range 2100-2200)and that it'd be likely easier to guess.

So, I have finalised it to guessing the Top 5 and Middle 3(49,50,51)

The tournament will start either tonight or tomorrow. Get ready!

No point guessing the middle three Swami - just make it the top five or six.

Ok, then, we go by majority

Reasons:

Bottom 3 - likely easier to guess.

Middle 3 - Complicated and a lot of guesswork, would almost seem a lottery, besides some new entrants wouldn't understand it.

So, we finalize it to Top 5 alone, alright.

Thanks. Yes I think that the middle 3 guesses should be optional (or having two categories where you can enter the one you want or both.)

Suits me - hopefully it will suit others also.

I tought 50 engines. No it is 100+ engines.
Top 10 would be another category.

best,

Looking at the participants list, I think predicting the Top 6 is more interesting...and challenging.. given the strength of participants. So, Top 6 is final. I hope this is not much different.
