But didn't I explain it immediately? Wouldn't it be clearer like this or not?

CONCERNING DELETED POSTS
Do not delete your posts under any circumstances. It is not easier or clearer that way since it is an automated script that picks up (most of) the predictions. The worst thing that will happen is that it will run for 0.003s more because it had to read one more line.

5) You may not delete any post in a prediction topic (if you do, please post immediately after to explain the deletion). This is to prevent abuse of the above rule and to reduce confusion.

Some people seem to be misreading this as You may not delete any post in a prediction topic unless you post immediately after to explain the deletion). That's not it.
In the exceptional and unlikely event where you would accidentally (See, I'm trying to make a point here >_>) delete a post, you must explain this immediately. But do not make a habit out of it please. I'm not trying to be an ass here, but if neither Kaxon or I can testify that the post was deleted before the next post and the next match, we'll have to discard the prediction. And we don't feel like doing that.
