The Predictometer is clearly faulty as Richard has not currently entered.

I would place little credence to these predictions. Hunter does this every year and has a one hundred percent record in that he is always totally wrong!!

Re: Britcon 2015
I think you're confusing the non-existent law of averages with the very real law of absolutes which states that when something is always wrong there's ABSOLUTELY no bloody chance it will ever be right.spotteddog wrote:Doesnt that mean that the PREDICTOMETER is likley to be right based on the law of averages?marshalney2000 wrote:I would place little credence to these predictions.

My prediction is that the list of army lists won't be published before August.

Its good to see I'm not predicted to be lastspotteddog wrote:Spotted Dog Producuctions is proud to presents the results of the most recent PREDICTOMETER results.
Taking into account past results, current form and mutiferious other variables - and bearing in mind we dont actually have the runners yet - we are heading for a hung tournament. Yes thats right folks the PREDICTOMETER is forecasting a win for John Munro following closely by his lynching despite Hunter's best efforts at mediation - "hingings tae guid fir 'im!" Hunter will say.
The PREDICTOMER has controversially placed Jim Copeland in second spot (technically the winner given John's timely demise) and our very own Richard Young in third spot. SD did do a double take on the last forecast but it appears that RY is due 18 lifetimes of decent luck to compensate for ill luck at Britcon thus far. Beware the dies of Richard folks - they are bound to roll stratospherically!
Stay tuned to this channel for further forecasting mince.

On the other hand we may not have to wait any longer as, In an amazing turn of events, the PDOM has forecast that both - yes that's both! - candidtates will selet JAPANESE; that both will have a GC and - to complete the astrological illogical triple whammy - that both will employ elite toyota landcruisers to hold the end of the line.
You heard it here first - even if you didnt want to!

Ah yes, those infamous Scottish Convent troops. Their distinctive uniforms of black habits, wimples and white bibs struck terror into the hearts of the Cavaliers at the battle of Edgware*.nigelemsen wrote:

Easy to paint too

* A famous victory that is credited by some for the decision to abandon the plan to extend the Northern Line to Inverness.

Interesting that Don has sent in his lust rather than his list. Should make an interesting experience for his opponents - God help them.
