Hey. . . There is a lot of pride that goes into having a solid read on situations around here. Whenever someone feels like making a prediction, we can come here, lay it out. Let's try to not really post in here other than predictions so it stays relatively clean. Then we can keep record. . . .
Once somebody makes a call, nobody else can take the same stance. So only people who get in early are going to have a chance, but if you get in just to get in, you're going to have a bad record. . . . So basically, as soon as you have a strong feeling one way or another, get in and you'll get your point. . . .
Since I'm starting the thread, I'll get the first prediction in. Obviously this thread is going to take years to really have any merit, but had we had it years ago, it would be something really cool to look at now.
EDIT: If people don't mind, I'm going to put a little twist on it. Seeing Lurkers prediction, it's very difficult because it depends on health and finding a trading partner. I'm going to give him a 30% handicap. If he gets it, his score goes to 1.3. If he misses, he only drops to -0.7. I'll try to keep up on each prediction and give a handicap after each prediction. If people disagree with the handicap we'll talk it out until something is agreed on.
