-Literally you

Well there is a line between "fun" and "serious". I never know when I've crossed it ( for myself) until it is too late!  :cheer:

Yeah, my posts generally are hard to like.  Also, they usually have no base and no reasoning.  My predictions are day to day (BTW Liahona, I want my predictions number).  I'm also pretty biased.  That being said...I could see this bottom half happening.  Understand I've seen clips of alot of the corps that you are surprised about.

These things change a lot.  I completely disagree with BoaDci, but we're here to have fun.

Honestly  I don't see Academy dropping out of finals either, but I hear Madison is very much improved from last year, and so is Boston.  Who is going to drop?  It's a mystery.  This could be one of those years where the top 15 or 16 corps could make finals on any given night, and that's a good thing!

All in good fun, yes. Thanks for getting this kind of sentiment out there. For my tastes, there's too much of a sort of a serious challenging of people on their predictions. Despite so much uncertainty and an almost absurdity of trying to pick specific placements for August.

For predictions generally, it isn't a bad thing to build in some surprises and low odds placements. (See NCAA bracket.) So good for BoaDci dropping out The Academy and bumping up Madison. I disagree with him, however: Madison is clearly at 8 or above!

Sure...

For Boston alone you've personally already predicted...

ONLY 8 predictions so far! :)

Data set (original):

9th    8th    12th    11th    7th    6th    7th    8th

Mean ( ) = 8.5 (rounded to 9th)

(9 + 8 + 12 + 11 + 7 + 6 + 7 + 8) /8 =  68 / 8 = 8.5  

Median = 8th

Data set:

6th    6th    7th    8th    8th    9th    11th    12th

(8 + 1) / 2 = 9 / 2 = 4.5 (rounded to 5th number)

Multi-modal = (6th, 8th)

Data set:

6th    6th    7th    8th    8th    9th    11th    12th

Range = 6

Data set:

6th    6th    7th    8th    8th    9th    11th    12th

(12 - 6) = 6

I'm proud of myself.

Isn't mean median mode elementary math? I hope you didn't learn that in calc :tongue:

 I was never any Einstein on the Beach when it came to any level of math.. from elementary, my Dear Watson, up to and including Triggernotomy.
