The difference is that CHSB would be debating why he believes such unrealistic predictions will happen. The difference is Chsb actually stats why he thinks the Titan will do what he says. He doesn't just put a bunch of wacked out predictions without at least giving his reasons. It generates debate where as this generates..... Like buddy about me said. I'm not disagreeing with you about that. I just made my post in reference to the "shitstorm" comment. This poster's messages have absolutely no content in them. After the first game, he/she will repeat the same post with 6 games, generating more

a Predict this thread guys is a guess you don't have to have a reason for your guess, as for the comment I repeat myself I actually try to avoid doing that I've edited some posts so I made sure I didn't sound repeative and last it seems to be only a few of you that have a problem with it if you didn't notice I'm still learning the ropes I've only been here a month...I know for some people there like WOW thats a long time some of us need a bit more time to learn the ropes!!!

Ok, it's a guess, but why start a thread about your guesses if you admit you didn't use any logic or have any sort of reason to think what you posted will happen. Otherwise your just looking for some sort of reaction from people...

November 28th,2009 Quebec 4- Halifax 2 November 29th ,2009 Bathurst 4- Halifax 3 December 3rd,2009 Gatineau 5- Halifax 2 December 4th,2009 Halifax 2-PEI 5 December 5th,2009 Lewiston 3- Halifax 4 December 11,2009 Moncton 3- halifax 2 December 12,2009 PEI 4 - Halifax 1 For your games against Bathurst it could go either way depending if the the Titan show up like they have their last two games. You will probly pick up another win in there. So while I predicted you won't win a game, you could end up with 2 or 3.

Well anyone with the Maple Leafs crest know losing after all it is what 42 and counting since your Leafs Won Standy Cup and you are able to prodick the Q league winners here really ..I think Hfxfan09 is trying here and people like you are trying to upset her too much not fair..Maybe you should go back home and play on your own board...

The majority of my existence on these boards is based on the fact that it's fun to "prodick" what's gonna happen. Friday Night Predictions on the contest board shows that, while them players slightly less homerish, most of us don't have a clue what's gonna happen.
You can make educated forecasts, or you can make emotional forecasts. For some of us (myself included), I like to be right. Because of this I'll rarely bet on the underdog. For hfxfan09, she's more happy predicting the wins for her team. Win or lose, she'll never bet against them. There's no money on the line, and she's having fun.

Perhaps she is, but it makes it pointless too. Why doesn't she just save the time and say "I predict the Mooseheads will win all of their remaining games". Afterall, if her previous predictions had come true, they'd be on a better winning streak than Saint John right now. oh yeah, almost forgot...

I definitely get what you're saying, and I think we all agree the value it adds to the boards. (Everybody in agreement roll your eyes ). I'm just not sure the criticism adds any more value. Now making your own predictions and gloating when you're right? Chock-full of valuable goodness!

There is no such thing as "a predict". Predict is a verb. Prediction is a noun. Your thread is as dumb as it gets. It's bubble gum and popcorn. Should be deleted for lack of decent content. Usually I don't even bother reading your posts (and freddy's) because they always lack any sort of reasonable content. But after reading it, I felt obliged to respond to you. But seeing as you are having fun, post away.

I definitely get what you're saying, and I think we all agree the value it adds to the boards. (Everybody in agreement roll your eyes ). I'm just not sure the criticism adds any more value. (Agreement) The simple solution is to ignore the posts by certain posters. I have a handful of posters who I just ignore, skip or don't read. I personally feel they add very little to the boards from a convo perspective and I don't waste my time in reading them. Now some people may like these style posts (other unrealistic homerish fans). I knew by the name of the thread and the poster what the content would be. Generally I know by the poster in quesiton what the content will be on all her posts so I just ignore them. Saves me the hassle of reading something that I already know the ending of. Now I suppose someone will trash me and get on a soap box and say moderators shouldn't post like this, but as I said above, some posters I just ignore. ;D
