Jonger Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 Now that I see the AO forcast + model setup... I'm going with -2 in most of the midwest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mallow Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Thanks, Mark, and sorry everyone. I'll continue to do the contest with one additional rule change. Instead of a 25% penalty for each day you are late, I'm going to change it to a 1% penalty for each hour you are late. Hopefully that doesn't make people less likely to get their forecasts in on time (though clearly I haven't been on the ball myself lately).

I concur that the 1% penalty/hr. is extremely fair to all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Smith Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Just to clarify, penalty should not apply to this month as it was stated that entries could be made up to end of 4th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mallow Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Just to clarify, penalty should not apply to this month as it was stated that entries could be made up to end of 4th. Right, but the penalty period still does start after the due date (1/4). Also... dca: +0.9 nyc: +1.7 bos: +1.8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mallow Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Also, I intend to make my spreadsheet very user friendly, so that anyone can use it quite easily. Then, I will share it here so others can update results and stuff if I'm late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
