what does dream yost stand for, ratm?

seriously tho, FSD, go look it up. 45%. not made up.

I named it DREAM YOST because Ned Yost is a dreamboat, just like my algorithm.

It's an algorithm, not an acronym.

mocat · « **Reply #29 on:** October 17, 2014, 09:34:29 AM »

the algorithms are named with acronyms that describe the algorithms

for example: scores need obvious work but results are great

There. It's now an acronym.

Is that, like, a byproduct of the algorithm?

JUDGE will penalize your score if you don't have an acronym for your algorithm, fwiw

this isn't a predicto thread. this is a thread where two algorithms are compared for the purposes of entertainment for the two creators of the algorithms.

also FSD, 45% of your posts are in the Pit. i like my hobby just fine.

My algorithm pwn3d your algorithm

What does 45% have to do with anything, anyways?

Those aren't acronyms those are initialisms.

JUDGE has spoken:

kslim - 47.5%
SNOWBRAG - 47.2%
FSD - 46.9%
DREAM YOST - 42.4%
METROSEXUAL - 40.4%
CHIMERA - 39.7%

Some comments:
*No, the QATZ game was not weighted. All games were evaluated in the same manner.
*Yes, FSD and kslim were both punished for not having an acronym.
*Millertime - interesting strategy...abstaining from picking the ND/FSU game. Doesn't look like it paid off this time.
*If Chings could have picked a winner he would have smoked all you fools and it wouldn't have been close. But he can't, so he didn't.
*JUDGE can accommodate a "confidence factor" if moving forward you want to assign your level of confidence from 1-7 for each game.
