Nah I like them for accountability purposes. With time, they will show who is to be trusted.OP is the hero of this recruiting board and I would never want to demean his efforts here
However these prediction tracker threads have proven to be a futile exercise. It was a good thought but I think it accomplished a goal by showing insider predictions mean jack ****
Where’s the accountability though? It’s just more “recruiting is fluid” excusesNah I like them for accountability purposes. With time, they will show who is to be trusted.
Also kind of makes the predictor be a little more responsible (unless they don't care about their reputation lol)
With the new system, they're paying for the "recruiting is fluid" predictions. They'll get a miss first.Where’s the accountability though? It’s just more “recruiting is fluid” excuses
I’m all for accountability but that’s not what I’m seeing
I’m not gonna argue with you about this because we are both seeing the same thing and having different opinionsWith the new system, they're paying for the "recruiting is fluid" predictions. They'll get a miss first.
50%. Which overall is not good. Eventually someone will lose respect if they're at 50%.
man look, idk what lindend does for a real job but he takes a lot of time to comb through numerous "insiders" twitter spaces, other sites etc. and compiles information in an easy to digest format on a free forum. The tracker thing started out as just for fun. IMO that is what it still is. Some people get paid to make predictions so they have to put their nuts on the line maybe even if they do not feel comfortable doing so. Other people understand the game a little better like a cribby who will hold back info and usually only drops something once he has confirmed it, and then you have someone in the middle like Flo who likes to talk and make "predictions" for fun.these aren't pushes. They are bad predictions. He predicted in June that Cole would be a Cane, and he committed to UGA. That's not a push. Lindend, do Geo and Flo have something on you that you don't want to get exposed?
The part about Geo and Flo having something on Lindend is a joke. Obviously, Geo and Flo don't have anything incriminating against the man. Lighten up.man look, idk what lindend does for a real job but he takes a lot of time to comb through numerous "insiders" twitter spaces, other sites etc. and compiles information in an easy to digest format on a free forum.

If you truly have an issue with the way the tracker is being scored then create your own list to rival lindends like what on3 did to 247 lol otherwise just read em and move on.
Lighten up. Obviously, Geo and Flo don't have anything incriminating against you.Why is it that everything always has to have an ulterior motive? I put the change out there multiple days beforehand and everyone could've commented on it if they had issues with the change. But no one one did.
Its not like I did this in the dark and no one was aware of it. Nevertheless, lesson learned. For full transparency, in the future, I'll conduct a public poll for criteria changes and adopt the majority's preference.
I know bro, I didnt seriously think they had something but lindend is doing his **** best to remain as neutral as can be between the board and the insiders. All I was saying is he doesnt need the extra aggravation in calling things out as a hit or a miss. If I see someone say Cole is coming as of June 1 and barring something crazy like he gets arrested then in September same insider says he is going to UGA, we are all smart enough to see what happened. Who cares if they flip it the day before a commitment, thats why we have the tracker with dates so we can see if someone is FOS.The part about Geo and Flo having something on Lindend is a joke.

duly noted, Geo. Thank you.I know bro, I didnt seriously think they had something but lindend is doing his **** best to remain as neutral as can be between the board and the insiders.

ok, couldn't tell if serious.Lighten up. Obviously, Geo and Flo don't have anything incriminating against you.
Accuracy change after the second adjustment to the new rule on conflicting predictions being a push. (13/17 compared to 10/14)
Hit Rate: 76% (13/17) [Sample size too small, don't draw conclusions from this percentage]
2023 Predictions
Date Prediction Outcome Verdict 9/8 Expectation for Cole is UGA Picked UGA Hit 7/20 I see Patterson in Miami's recruiting class Picked Miami Hit 6/29 Schmo isn't coming to Miami Picked Pitt Hit 6/29 Would be shocked if Cole isn't a Cane Picked UGA Miss 6/27 Cole on commit watch Picked UGA Push (already counted as a miss) 6/27 Geo see Schmo committing Picked Pitt Miss
I assume this was a joke too right? idk I guess your jokes just arent funny. Aint nan person has laughed at you calling me Geo or claiming they have some incriminating evidence on lindend. Perhaps that is the root of the issue.duly noted, Geo. Thank you.
Thanks.@lindend everyone on here appreciates your work. It's a lot of effort and usually thankless. So you should feel free to measure win rate however the heck you want.
That said, just mathematically, I don't see how the win rate could have gone up if you're now assigning a 0 or a 1 to the old prediction, when you were earlier not counting it at all.

All I am saying is you click these threads for a reason. I bet it is not to see who has the highest hit rate, it is to see who is predicting what and when. Enough people get mad about how the ranking is scored lindend will just stop then we are back discussing random **** like its the offseason. No need to even comment about how its scored, I dont give a rats *** if its geo or gaby or whoever . The board pretty much is universal in how ferman is out of the loop, yet if he were to post something about Messidors injury it would spread across this board like wildfire.
My point was complaining about a free board when he is actually just compiling information from other sources is petty and unproductive. As mentioned you dont like how its scored do your own leg work and score it however you want.
****, some dudes need to stop taking so seriously a dude named P-Tizzle!View attachment 256144
More people have laughed at my posts than you have actual posts. So, go away, Cookie dough.
You would think a guy names Cookie would understand.****, some dudes need to stop taking so seriously a dude named P-Tizzle!

It has nothing to do with his name or anything serious, he can be a troll account, doesnt matter but him coming after someone that is just posting entertainment and second hand sources to then ***** about it like a school yard brat is why some very good posters get run off. That was the only point I was making, then his rebuttal is to call me "cookie dough" and claiming he has made way more "funny" posts than I have ever made is some kind of badge of honor. He said he was joking, I said his jokes werent funny. Did you laugh when you read them? If you had your choice between "p-tizzles "funny" posts or lindends who you riding with?****, some dudes need to stop taking so seriously a dude named P-Tizzle!
It's not that seriously bro. Yes I did laugh, then again last year I joked about Lindend being Flo so...for a guy arguing about statistics this point falls flat on many levels....
