When I come to CARDBOARD, I want SAGACITY, penetrating insight, knowledge I don't get anywhere else.
I get RA-RA loyalty for Stanford PLENTY of places (here in WDC).  Stanford is about EXCELLENCE, and that means judgment. 
If the coaches are making bad calls; if a player is letting down the team, I want to hear that analysis HERE.   
The insights of this collectie HIVE MIND are SUPERIOR.  That should be rewarded in picking the WINNER. 
Delete the penalty for picking AGAINST STANFORD.

THIS x 1 bazillion

Update on the predictions plugin.  I tried installing it tonight, but ran into a couple of issues that I need to troubleshoot.  For those of you that haven't tried it out on the staging environment, I encourage you to try it.  Instead of posting your update in the thread, you need to click on the "Make Prediction" button:



Then fill in your prediction:



And after submitting, you should see the updated average:



Apologies Martyup, I had to blow away the previous data as part of an update.

I vote to eliminate the over/under stat.  I would replace "red hot" with "Most Confident" or "Cardinal Glasses".

I like "Shame!" for the entry having Stanford losing by the most points. However, I don't think it's working properly. Under Shame! is CompSci, but his prediction had Stanford winning.

Will do.

Is "red hot" not a thing anymore?  A quick google search suggests that it hasn't been in use since the 60s?

Yeah, good catch.  I'll track this one down tonight.
