kitik Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 The number of entries you have in your list is actually equal to all the players who predicted, which means that my prediction should be in there. Well then maybe you changed yours. Did you ever think of that? Since you know, THE WHOLE POINT HERE IS THAT YOU EDITED YOUR ANSWERS. And also, your stated reason above for editing your answers because you might have changed your mind on the midnight numbers is totally against the spirit of baumer allowing people to answer the regular questions late. The whole point of that deadline is so that people can't wait for notfabio or whatever updates we get for midnights or Thursday numbers from RTH or whatever else.

The whole point of that deadline is so that people can't wait for notfabio or whatever updates we get for midnights or Thursday numbers from RTH or whatever else. I am unsure why you are being totally angry on that part. I am just saying that in a game of guessing what a movie would earn WW, I somehow managed to get the closest answer. You are saying it shouldn't count as it was 20 minutes after the deadline. I am saying, we will let Baumer decide if I was out of line. If he says I was, I won't contest it. But you saying that I should not get points I earned by guessing correctly is my point of contention. Hell, I have no chance of winning the whole thing, but I will not let go of the bonus until Baumer says that I am not eligible for it. If notfabio or whoever provides data before the deadline by even a minute, I am well within my rights to change the answers if the time zone suits me well. While editing, if i start to edit at 11:59, and don't save till 12:02 and the thread was not locked, am I wrong is saving my answers at 12:02? And we never got any numbers from Rth or Spatula last week, so I don't see how I could have known what the midnight numbers were when I changed my mind.

kitik Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 I am unsure why you are being totally angry on that part. Sorry if i'm coming off as a jerk here, I'm just trying to keep the game fair. I am saying, we will let Baumer decide if I was out of line. If he says I was, I won't contest it. But YOU saying that I should not get points I earned by guessing correctly is my point of contention. Don't act like I'm making rules up, or trying to be some judge here, I'm just going by the standards baumer laid out quite clearly last year.

The whole point of that deadline is so that people can't wait for notfabio or whatever updates we get for midnights or Thursday numbers from RTH or whatever else.You are taking this way too seriously. If the numbers were out already then there'd be an issue. If not I don't see a problem.And besides what are the odds he'd change his bonus answer at the last minute without any info that could help him and be right by undercutting someone by .75? It's not likely it was a lucky edit, this shouldn't be such a huge issue for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Stingray Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 I'm sure we all feel comfortable within the confines of the honor system. If grim says he didn't do nothing wrong, I believe him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dementeleus Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 My two cents are to adhere to the hard, specific rules... but of course it's baumer's call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitik Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 My two cents are to adhere to the hard, specific rules... but of course it's baumer's call. It's not like this is some new situation that has never popped up before. Baumer already made this call. That said, I need to stop posting in this thread, because even I think I sound like a jerk.

Mattrek Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 Baumer also just said a few days ago that deadlines aren't super strict. So which is his way of thinking right now? A statement made months/years ago or one made less then a week ago? I'm pretty sure most people would refer to the more recent statement.Regardless I have no skin in this game and B is the one who decides, but for me I think the points should go to grim.

darkelf Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 I'd really love the points but I don't see anything wrong with this since the thread was still open.And mods, can you please lock the thread at the deadline? The one time I changed it after, I was wrong and lost 5000 points 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted June 17, 2014 Author Share Posted June 17, 2014 (edited) hey guys. I don't really know what the issue is because I haven't read back past this page. But from what I've read grim changed his answer after the normal deadline. But I did say that I am NOT being super strict right now while I am NOT actively running the game properly. So because of that and because the thread was still open I have no problem with grims answer and him getting the points if he did change his answer after the deadline. Hopefully starting next Sunday the game will go back to normal and the thread will be locked on time. But for now if the thread is open another mod has not locked it (which I hope that they do but if they don't) and it is not locked until I get up the next day then the points count.if I have interpreted in a situation incorrectly I apologize but this is how it reads to me have to go now will look back in on this again it periodically today.

chasmmi Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 Points this week with 3 caveats: 1) 5k bonus is Given to grim as per Baumer's post above. 2) The bonus is written as 10/12 gets a 3k bonus. As there are 14 questions not 12, I have interpreted this as players need to get 12/14 to get the 3k and so on. (Therefore nobody won bonus points) 3) I have no idea who PMed Baumer bonus 5, so only he can add those 3k to the total. With that said... Damien 8k Kitik 7k Tyler 5k Schuamcher 6k Laguy 5k Tele 13k Olive 9k Claire Holt 6k Fern 7k Narnia 6k Glassfairy 7k Winter Soldier 6k Empire 6k Grim 11k Bcf 7k Iceroll 8k Chewy 8k Junkshop 6k Gizmo 7k Greyghost 13k Jake 7k Mattrek 9k Films 6k 24lost 10k Simion 7k Cedar 7k Cjohn 8k Druv 5k Darkelf 8k Jajang 7k Cmaster 5k Stingray 5k Dar 5k Alfred 8k Andyll 6k Ed 5k Chasmmi 7k Baumer 10k Panda 7k Blank 5k JOS 9k Numbers 8k MGS 4k Punish 7k Mulder 6k Dipper 8k Movieman 11k 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
