Wait a minuite, so its fine to attack my prediction? I predicted 77 before the game came out. So your admitting my prediction was a low ball yet others that claimed lower or even much higher dont? Sounds like an attack to me. Also you stating it was a low ball is a low ball in itself. 77 was a good guess, so it scored sllightly higher than my score... how is this a big deal? and why are we debating this? Torillian used my prediction prior release as an argument, Was there an issue with my prediction, have i upset gamers because i didnt give it a 90? My point was anything is possibly at early stages of reviews. I never came in this thread saying i am right. The fact someone used my prediction to gain ground in a debate is rather sad. I dont have to justify myself. The way all this sounds right now, is anyone who didnt guess TLG would get a 83 is a low ball. Tell me CGI, what did you guess TLG would get for a metacritic? |
My issue isn't with your initial guess. My issue was with the idea that a 77 would still be possible because the troll reviews haven't come in. That didn't seem to be likely given the number of reviews already published and the number of low scores that would be necessary to move the needle. I would say the same to someone who made a comment that seemed like the score could still get up to 86 as that is also incredibly unlikely and would require a large number of perfect scores to move the average at that point so much higher up.
Put simply, when I see someone say something that seems to be wrong based on math I like to check for myself and then tell them if it's wrong so they stop saying things that are simply incorrect. No opinion on your initial guess (could have been very reasonable given a couple previews of the game) but that the average has a decent chance to get down to 77 from where it is now, which is simply untrue unless we are talking about extremely low probabilities.
