SpC2k5 - Oracle Challenge - Round 3
From: creativename | Posted: 5/25/2005 3:16:08 AM | Message Detail
Oh wow, 16 seconds... 0_o

I for onemotion that DC's "late" post gets accepted. That would really hurt thecontest if the leader got totally screwed over that. Perfectlyunderstandable if KM decides not to let this go, because of the can ofworms it opens...but just...wow.

The oracle hosts have always been lenient with late predictions, andthis is a special "late" case. I'm sure DC has nothing to worry about.

I would take the 78 pick, as it was just correcting the type that MrChemist made. (side note: nice to see you finally beating me Chemist. Iremember the last two times you were always one less than me XD)

All my favourites have lost... ... ...Damn!
From: King Morgoth | Posted: 5/25/2005 2:06:38 PM | Message Detail
Concerning DC's pick:

I've always applied the "late prediction rule" as such:
If a player makes a new prediction late, I let it go as long as I know the match hadn't started, to prevent anyone from missing a match.
If a player makes a change, I enforce the rule strictly, 11:00:00 is in, 11:00:01 is out.

As for this particular instance of change...
*watches the can of worms*
I'll consider intent (as here anyone can tell he would never have predicted 58.9), and disregard the 1:59:50 post.
And as I'm still being strict on the rules, the 78.9 change at 2:00:16 is out, Dilated Chemist's prediction stays at 80.00%.
I'm not going to ruin the championship being an ass on the rules =P
And doing it this way shouldn't open a can of worms, hopefully...

The update will be done within a few hours. Or something like that.

This match hinges on whether Kuja is stronger than Sin. I'm betting Sinis stronger. Kuja seems big on this board, but elsewhere I don't thinkhe's well liked (even among FF IX fans, of which I am one).
