This infuriatingly undefined question is one of the reasons I decided I don't have time to struggle with this game. I like having a reputation as a superforecaster from GJP4, but this game seems designed to teach us humility by forcing us in cases like this to forecast the organizers of this game instead of the apparent question. Instead, now I'm concentrating on the upcoming Hybrid Forecasting Competition. I hope to help design one of the competing versions of this game, but if I turn out to not be on a winning proposal team, then I'll jump at the chance to forecast on some other contractor's version of the game. http://www.iarpa.gov/index.php/research-programs/hfc
I hate to interrupt this conversation again, but it appears that I'm not needed in space sector 2814 any longer. My ID now says I'm in 2184 for now. It's probably just a little wet job.

@ravel, I guess what you're saying is, don't eat the camel? http://biblehub.com/topical/ttt/b/beasts--unclean--camel.htm

And @ravel here's a bit of Deep State Camel Stew that's hard to swallow: http://www.cbsnews.com/news/pressure-builds-on-obama-administration-to-declassify-911-report/
Not that there's any actual news in those censored 15 pages:

@GJDrew: Am I politicking here? What are the parameters for this forum again?

@cmeinel
@GL2184, I feel that's how I've always known you. Also, @cmeinel is @Inactive-43 now or you can ping her friend @Resonancia.

I'm back to my normal space sector now. Carry on.
