Athens Fall 2015 Podiums Pick 'Em
So yeah. You get to choose a 1st, 2nd and 3rd for each event (including tentatives) along with 2 honorable mentions (4th and 5th).
You ALSO get to predict which 12 competitors will make it to 3x3 finals. I'm too cheap to give out prizes, but here are the rules:
For every 1st place you get right, you get 5 points.
For every 2nd place you get right, you get 4 points.
For every 3rd place you get right, you get 3 points.
For every podium you get right but in the wrong place, you get 1 point.
For every honorable mention that gets 4th or 5th, you get 1 point.
For every honorable mention that gets into podiums, you lose 2 points.
For every finalist you get right, you get 1 point.
Sorry for double post btw

You know that Corey does this for every competition in the USA by the week of the competition, right?

@YouCubing These always seem so trivial to me bc of the psych sheet and we know who all is participating in an event. Which also makes me curious as to how people do with the tentative events.

Areas that have a lot of long-time cubers have a lot of people that don't practice in an event anymore, so psych sheets don't necessarily reflect the current skill level.

Also, tentative events: http://www.cubingusa.com/AthensFall2015/psych.php?e=pyra

It would be easy to just put what the psych sheet says, but a few of these events have podiums with very close times (Pyraminx 1-4 are within less than a second of each other). This would be where it would take good guessing/predicting to get an accurate podium, because I think these could go any way. Also, people who have not completed in an event yet are not represented on the psych sheet, but may go on to take the podium.

Can you let me know if anyone drops out? I'd really like to compete. I've only done one so far and made the 2x2 cutoff.

If anyone was at the Atlanta open, I was the little kid. :cool: I was the only 6 year old there.

My dad might not be going, but he probably will. I'll keep you updated.
