Clarinot Posted July 4, 2005 Posted July 4, 2005 Check the predictions page for a few more DCI events. DCI Central and Midwestern have been added. I'll be adding some more events tonight. If you have a predictions event request, PM me and I'll be happy to add it. Quote
mbui Posted July 5, 2005 Posted July 5, 2005 On the DCI Central Division Predictions page....there should be two pull down menus since the competition broken up into a two-day event. One menu for the Friday night corps and the other for the Saturday night corps. On the DCI Midwestern page....the Finalists option needs to be expanded to 12 spots since it is a DCI Regional. Just thought I'd let you know. Quote
Clarinot Posted July 6, 2005 Author Posted July 6, 2005 ok I took care of midwestern... but for central-are the friday and saturday corps competing seperately? So would this call for two seperate prediction 'events' to be created? Quote

Clarinot Posted July 6, 2005 Author Posted July 6, 2005 OK, DCI Central has been fixed. There were 9 users who had created predictions for this, and if you are one of these people, please go back in and re-create your prediction list for Central (now 2 seperate events) Quote
Clarinot Posted July 6, 2005 Author Posted July 6, 2005 Do we want out of state BOA regional predictions? Do events such as BOA Long Beach qualify for txbands.com, since schools from TX will be there? We plan on having predictions for GN, we are just discussing our prediction format. Quote

Yeah, BOA Long Beach, CA should be on there since a Texas band will be competing. We should only do BOA competitions that Texas bands are in attendance at. Quote
Clarinot Posted July 7, 2005 Author Posted July 7, 2005 Ok, just to test all these predictions and make sure everything is working smoothly, I setup a 'test event' for a trial run. http://www.txbands.com/predict/add_list.php?id=15 Lake Erie Fanfare... has 6 Div. I corps attending it, and is tomorrow, so that means you need to predict tonight. I would really appreciate it if you could help us out by submitting a predictions list (and these predictions points WILL count) Remember, you have until midnight to predict. http://www.txbands.com/predict/add_list.php?id=15 Quote
Clarinot Posted July 7, 2005 Author Posted July 7, 2005 come on! predict in this event!!! it really helps us test predictions to make sure everythings working smoothly, and will put you ahead towards winning the giftcards Quote
Clarinot Posted July 8, 2005 Author Posted July 8, 2005 Thank you to all who helped predict! I actually found a few bugs in the code, and I'm ironing it out right now. Everyone can now view all the votes and their accuracy at http://www.txbands.com/predict/view_list.php?id=15 Skippy, euphtone06, and dynasty all had 100% accuracy! Yay! So since dynasty doesn't count, skippy and euphtone are tied for first place in 2005 predictions! Quote

euphtone06 Posted July 8, 2005 Posted July 8, 2005 I just threw some names in without thinking sweet! Quote
artishard Posted July 8, 2005 Posted July 8, 2005 someone needs to put GN up there. i really wanna see what everyone has to say, and put mine up too. Quote
mbui Posted July 13, 2005 Posted July 13, 2005 For the Michigan competition, what do we do with the Division II corps? Division I and Division II corps are judged differently...different criteria, different judging sheets. Do we put them at the bottom of the list right after the Division I corps? For example, on Friday night...the Blue Stars will be the only D2 corps competing. Do we put them in 9th place right after the other eight D1 corps? And for future competitions, let's say there are several D2 corps in attendance, do we do it like this? 6 Division I corps competing.... 7th place on predictions = 1st Place Division II 8th place on predictions = 2nd Place Division II 9th place on predictions = 3rd Place Division II (and so on) I hope this makes sense. Quote
Skippy Posted July 13, 2005 Posted July 13, 2005 Your system is how it should be done. But looking at the predictions, I see that some people have put Blue Stars above other corps... such as Southwind. Blue Stars can't beat anyone, because they are in a different division, and judged as such. Quote

Like the DCI Central Division competition several weeks ago, the upcoming Allentown, PA competition is also a two-day event. http://www.dci.org/tickets/view_event.cfm?...c1-3aa3525fa422 To make it fair, I think we should throw out the predictions that have already been sent it.

Kelly11 Posted July 30, 2005 Posted July 30, 2005 Hey when do I get to start as Predictions Mod? Or is that something that Clarinot wants to do? Quote
Dynasty Posted July 30, 2005 Posted July 30, 2005 There are a LOT of kinks in the system, so we're going to polish it up (it requires major re-writing of the code and we don't want to lose data) during the off-season. Don't worry, your name is written down in the Admin CP and I see it every time I log in. Quote
Clarinot Posted July 31, 2005 Author Posted July 31, 2005 DCI Indy has been entered! Here are the current top 10 standings: Rank Username Points 1 mbui 43 2 Skippy 40 3 euphtone06 26 4 saxplaya 25 5 crusheroftheweak 25 6 LordGiggles 24 7 Laconic 23 8 lxaphiup345 22 9 Sockercon 22 10 Dynasty 21 Also- added 2 BOA super regionals to predictions Quote
Clarinot Posted July 31, 2005 Author Posted July 31, 2005 mbui pointed out that I (again) messed up predictions. There was one event for Allentown, when it is actually 2 nights. So to keep everything fair, we cleared the old predictions (only 13 users predicted) and created two seperate events. Sorry about that- but predict away Quote
Clarinot Posted August 1, 2005 Author Posted August 1, 2005 One more update to predictions: When you view user ranks, ties are correctly shown in your rank number. Before if two users had the same number of points, one would still be a higher rank than the other, but that's fixed now. Quote
LordGiggles Posted August 1, 2005 Posted August 1, 2005 When people are ranked, I think when there is a tie, such as 1, 2, 2, the next ranking is 4, not 3 like we have it designed. Quote
