OlympicsFan 858 Posted September 19, 2018 #532 Share Posted September 19, 2018 vor 14 Stunden schrieb LDOG: To be fair he is leading the prediction contest of this... 1) How many contestants does this contest have? 2) Is there anyone besides him who cares about (follows) non-olympic events like reining? 3) I don't doubt that he knows much about this sport (although the provisional standing in a single predictions contest with very few participants doesn't prove anything), but my point is that his predictions concerning Germany at the 2020 olympic were ridiculous and therefore i offered him a bet. The fact that he isn't willing to take any of them (although the odds would be sensational for him, if his assessment of the current state of german eventing would be correct) pretty much proves that he was just bullshitting and everyone who doesn't believe it just has to look up when Germany last didn't win a single medal at a major event or finished outside the top 5. By the way: In 2010 Germany finished 5th in the team and Jung won individual gold (the same result Germany would have had this year if it wouldn't have been for Klimke's silly mistake, without the best german rider even competing), 2 years later Germany won 2 gold medals at the olympics. Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like negative points? I mean, if you finish 1st you get 1 point, if second 2 points and so on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcro 10,210 Posted September 19, 2018 #536 Share Posted September 19, 2018 Welp, there go Israel's hopes. Too bad, as it looked like Ashlee was really going for the time. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, if you finish 1st you get 1 point, if second 2 points and so on? Today's winner gets 0.00 points, while everyone else gets penalties that equal their deficit divided by two. So if you were 0.50 seconds slower than winner, you continue on 0.25 pens the next day. thepharoah and AlFHg 1 1 #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
