I'm shocked.

I'm shocked.

[lharris92]

on which guess was he right... the 1st or nth number?

[mrtourette]

The one about Kiss headlining the second stage at Downl...oh wait, maybe not.

The one about Kiss headlining the second stage at Downl...oh wait, maybe not.

[gazza_20]

Because Gazza was right?

But Gazza getting a prediction right is extremely likely. The number of bands he mentions and the number times he changes his mind it must be impossible for him to be wrong.

[gazza_20]

Apparently 99% of the time he mentions bands it isn't a prediction, just him saying "they are likely" or "I think it could happen" and that doesn't count when it turns out to be wrong.

Just to make you aware, for all the times I may've done a R&L one previously which is the main one I have due to the fact it's the only one i really have a decent general idea, IOW Isn't one I've really done except to be included in the big overall one I did in the Glasto forum. So that's one attempt, who did I pick? The Stone Roses

Sorry I don't understand any of that.

[mrtourette]

A prediction is a prediction. Say a band could be likely isn't. If you think it is, more fool you

[mrtourette]

Why doesn't that surprise me.

[gazza_20]

Actually you started the IOW 2013 thread in this section as well.

[gazza_20]

Yes, more fool me for reading your stuff.

Perhaps you can clarify what is a prediction and what is just the ramblings of a drugged horse, that we'd know what to take seriosuly and what to ignore.

[mrtourette]

Indeed I did, the 2013 headliner thread. Check out the band i put 3rd in that too? My 1st actual go at IOW prediction and I maintained it all the way to Neil's info saying no.

[gazza_20]

Yeah nobody's arguing that with you, we've all said well done and congratulations.

[Bisque]

What do you win if you guess right?

[LondonTom]

What do you win if you guess right?

[mrtourette]

For one, know you haven't, just jumped on the whole, oh I say loads so I'll get it right eventually shit and two, how many times you going to re-edit your reply on the previous page it make it sound slightly less worthless?
