[PREDICTION CONTESTS] Discussion Thread

Prediction Contests Are Just-For-Fun Games

"There are things that are uncertain for us, things more or less probable,

and we seek to compensate for the impossibility of knowing them

by determining their different degrees of likelihood.

So it was that we owe to the weakness of the human mind one of the most delicate

and ingenious of mathematical theories, the science of chance or probability."

 

is now open.

 

Remember to hide your predictions. And remember that in boxing, judo, taekwondo and wrestling events you predict two (2) bronze medal winners!

 

For any other questions, please contact via PM.

 

Enjoy the Contest!

 

 

Wanderer is away so few of us had to jump in, hopefully the remaining two contests will be opened today!

IMPORTANT!

In Boxing, Judo, Taekwondo and Wrestling events you are predicting TWO Bronze Medal winners, while in Weightlifting events only ONE Bronze Medal winner is predicted.

When will the draw/seeding in judo/wrestling/boxing/taekwondo released? I think its impossible to make a prediction for the medallists, if we dont know the draw.

You'll have to predict Taekwondo blindly.

All draws tomorrow except taekwondo and wrestling. So we'll have to deal with that.

When will taekwondo and wrestling draws take place? Why not make two separate prediction contests?

We already have 13 prediction contests, we can't make more. It would require too many updates and threads.
