The snark part must've been the insistence on re-phrasing estimate to guess, although the two are not the same.
A guess means you're just guessing, you haven't done any kind of math.
Estimate indicates you've done your math, and arrived at an actual estimate.
Also take note of WW saying above that there's nothing wrong with it. He's been around here about as long as you have, so I'd say that that at least indicated that it's not a very clear breach of CoC, that anyone should know about. I see numbers being thrown around here, almost daily, without maths to back it up. On this one, it will only be interesting to hear what the actual admin says about it, at this point. To me, it seemed that accountant by no means indicated that the estimate was to be taken as certain.
I'd say some clarification would be helpful, but perhaps it belongs better on the Feedback & Support Board? The CoC could also be posted more prominently, perhaps - right now, I don't know where to find it. (In the old version, it was on top of the boards, so it was impossible to miss, iirc.)
Ok, for those who were snarky before, here's a delist estimate *plus math* for RSAPE... (My SMURF math will be up soon) Aug 06, 03:09
Apologies for the bad formatting. {nm} Aug 06, 03:14
Why make a delist estimate on a stock that hasn't even reported an actual opening weekend #, let alone adjusted? Aug 06, 03:15
Because I thought it would be a fun challenge for me. Why, is there something in the rules that states I can't? {nm} Aug 06, 03:21
Nope, I just don't see the point of it when Nikki's Friday estimate and projection isn't even final yet. {nm} Aug 06, 03:42
Interesting. Hope you're right! {nm} Aug 06, 04:30
It's not snark. There are good reasons why math is required for delist and starbond estimates {nm} Aug 06, 05:16
If you post without math you run the risk of having your post deleted and being accused of manipulating. {nm} Aug 06, 05:44
What post the delist estimate at all then? {nm} Aug 06, 06:14
The snark part must've been the insistence on re-phrasing estimate to guess, although the two are not the same. Aug 06, 06:23
Yes, you're right about the snark part. I will post my math tomorrow morning when I can get onto my PC. {nm} Aug 06, 06:35
