Re: Looking Forward's real identiy
 
LookingForward was spotted at Palmetto regional on Saturday. While no one knows who it is, they had his/her presents announced by pit admin.
They announced BillFred's arrival 20min before LookingForward's...coincidence?

Re: Looking Forward's real identiy
 
I say it's Karthik or that he's involved. He has alot of knowledge about many teams and has been around for a while. He always has stories to tell about teams. Looking Forward has alot to say about things and sometimes uses math. Karthik seems like a math guy, and has close to photo graphic memory. He also mentioned that he is expecting to see "changes to 148's robot making them an even bigger threat," in his week 5 predictions. How would he know? Steve W did mention that him and Paul Copioli talked 5 times a week. both of them have connections with team 148. 254 didn't have swerve. Cory repeatedly posted pictures of swerve parts. i believe the parts were from team 148 so i expect Cory to be involved in some way. :rolleyes:

Also, since the 1114 teaser got alot of people fooled about things, it could prove something. That Cory, Paul, and Karthik are back for more teasing! :ahh:

I sincerely doubt that Billfred is LookingForward (assuming LF is a single person)--though I don't doubt for a second that Billfred knows his stuff. LF's presence at Palmetto does indeed seem suspicious when considering that no major teams from New England were present at Palmetto this year. I imagine they're affiliated and such--but I don't think they're the same person.
I don't consider myself a Billfred expert by any means--but that's just my take on it.

What if Looking Forward is really a bunch of people acting in concert? Each one knows their region best, but the combined output makes it seem like a single person has incredible prediction skills?

That's what I suspect. One person (I've got a guess who, but I'm probably wrong) has the account and compiles the final post, then posts it. I also have guesses as to some of his/her helpers. (At least two of my suspects have been mentioned.)

Thats it! Its Arefin!!!! You're tricky trying to pull a fast one on us like that man!

On a serious note: if you didn't know, there is a group of people collaborating for this. So there is a possibility that EVERYONE in this thread that has been mentioned is involved, but does it really matter who the identity of LF is?

Honestly, we all want to know where our robots rank and where our favorite/friends' robots rank as well and as long as we're getting that we shouldn't complain about where the information comes from (because we KNOW it is reliable) and we know that they are not doing anything that is against anyone either.

Get on with your life and please forget about who this LF is! IT DOESN'T MATTER!!! The people that need to know, already KNOW!

Probably,(as in bit your ear probably).

In the post ti says "we", statistics wise it would take too long to do with one person, and it is fairly obvious from looking at the post that there is probably more than one person working on this.

I didn't say there was one person solo. I did say something about "helpers", did I not? I didn't specify how much help, did I?

And the word "probably" was referring to my guess as to the identity of the account holder.

Clarification, my probably was referring to there being more than one person.
I did not say I you said there was only one person, or that you specified how much help.
When I said "in the post", I was referring to the post by Looking Forward.
Sorry for the misunderstanding.

Re: Looking Forward's real identiy
 
To anyone that wonders why we are debating who it is and claims that it does not matter: It is a mystery. It is a game. It is just for fun. I don't think anyone here actually cares who it is. They just care about figuring it out. If LF was to come forward with his identity very few people would actually care. The only good of figuring it out is to figure it out on your own.

Is it for some nefarious purpose? What is it going to be used for?? I don't know yet :D I just thought it'd be a good idea b/c I have no clue how to contact other teams otherwise (I think there's some sorta mentor/adult email list but yea...)

If something like this exists would anyone care to point me to it? =)

Thanks!

Oh yea is anyone taking care of video at Palmetto? I think we're planning to record the streamed webcast but we're not recording locally, so it'd be good to have someone else record in case of internet traffic jams or w/e Murphy dreams up XD

This was curiously in the palmetto spot, but thats >_<;; which is different.

I would be willing to put money on the fact that this would be legal. If my assumption is correct this website/company is an offshoot of a thunder chickens project from last year (The autonomous SD card reader). It will be interesting to see how these things are implemented this year. Welcome to the AndyMark for electronics.
So now our programmer won't have to have someone hold his ankles as he leans over the wall surrounding the arena floor to download the new program?*

AWESOME!

Probably a formality, but does Cross the Road meet all the requirements as a supplier (federal tax ID, enough supply, etc.)? As good as these products seem, it'd be a shame for them not to get used because of a paperwork issue.

*Yes, this has more or less been the case in the past--at Palmetto on Thursday, our programmer had a new autonomous for us to try. We were already queued up for the match, so he caught our attention, threw over the program cable, and downloaded the new program while we shuffled closer to the field. Fortunately, the wall isn't too high, only three feet or so. I'm kidding about holding onto ankles--perhaps I should've gotten more sleep last night. >_<

I guess my PHP scripts are going to be there "in the flesh". The scripts I run not only figure out who the top teams are - they automatically turn that information into witty paragraphs and post directly to Chief Delphi as the predictions threads.

From this post.

Quote:

And now a special treat. The Looking Forward team has assembled a Top 25 List similar to that done in college sports (by the AP and others). Looking Forward contributors each cast a ballot, as well as many reputed outside sources. Sixteen total votes were cast, including those by WFAs, championship winning coaches, head scouts, former drivers, and respected CD community members. Voters were selected from around the country (and Canada) to attempt to avoid any regional biases.
So it is more than one person.....

OK. I think this has gone on long enough. It's time for me to fess up.

I am the true identity for Looking Forward. If you'll notice my lack of speculation posts elsewhere (like I normally do), and my hint as to my capability to watch all the regionals on any given weekend at once, I had been hoping that someone would figure it out.

I'm flattered that everyone has responded to positively to my posts. I'm glad I could be of service to the CD community.

Everyone knows that I'm just playing, right? I'd love to know the true identity as well.

I am the true identity for Looking Forward. If you'll notice my lack of speculation posts elsewhere (like I normally do), and my hint as to my capability to watch all the regionals on any given weekend at once, I had been hoping that someone would figure it out.

I'm flattered that everyone has responded to positively to my posts. I'm glad I could be of service to the CD community.

Everyone knows that I'm just playing, right? I'd love to know the true identity as well.

How do we know it is true? The only way I'll believe it, is if it is posted by the 'Looking Forward' account. Sorry for the suspicion, I just take things with a grain of salt.

EDIT: I thought you were serious. Oh well, back to the drawing board.

Actually, it's not white...It's the exact color of the background. The color code is f1f1f1 if you want to know--see the "blank thread".

I was wondering about that... I don't think Jacob has anywhere near the time needed to be Looking Forward.

Re: Looking Forward's real identiy
 
To draw on Francis Pharcellus Church:

Yes, Chief Delphi, there is a Looking Forward. It exists as certainly as science and technology and Gracious Professionalism exist, and you know that they abound and give to your life its highest inspiration and joy. Alas! how dreary would be the world if there were no Looking Forward. It would be as dreary as if there were no FIRSTers. There would be no well-thought hype then, no predictions, no honest analysis to make tolerable this build season. We should have no enjoyment, except in sense and sight. The eternal light with which robotics fills the world would be extinguished.

A thousand years from now, Chief Delphi, nay, ten times ten thousand years from now, Looking Forward will continue to make glad the heart of childhood.

-------------------------------------------------------------

Now do you truly want to know who Looking Forward is? Or would it be best to leave the myth and mystery alive?

I haven't read through all the pages, but from what I've seen people have forgotten about one such person. This man in my mind is Mr. FIRST, and has the experience to back it up. I met him in my early years of 2004, and he is someone I look up to. This man has "been around the block" a few times when it comes to regionals and definitely knows all the big teams that there are in FIRST. My "Looking Forward" prediction is non other than the finest MC around and one of team 67's HOTtest mentors, Dave Verbrugge. I know it's you!!!!!

You noticed that too.....I have been quiet about that name block for a while now. I have also tried to con it out of Mr. Martus and Mr. Aubry but it doesn't seem to ever work;)
