I not sure I see the value of creating a board within the board. I mean, don't we already have a board to discuss ideas? I also don't want to become the "Miss Police", determining what is a near hit and what isn't, managing multiple responses to responses and on and on. With the formal predictions, it is quite clear if a prediction is a hit or a miss, in others words there is no subjectivity.

I don't envision a scoring system for near hits because the definition of a near hit is subjective. We had this same problems for predictions, which has now resulted in the current formal protocol for predictions. Are we to set up a system for predicting near misses also?

I vote we leave discussion of near hits to the board, that's what it is there for.

As always, I open to any further ideas on the subject ....
