A new experiment is proposed.

As many of you are aware, Danny Kodicek was caught cheating
while administering a psychic test last week.

While Danny was meant to think of meaningful common words to guess,
he actually used made up words, "coulda", "shoulda", "wouilda" and so on...

The applicant had achieved a perfect score guessing words up to this point
that Danny broke the rules of the test.

At the end of the experiment, after the falsely aquitted claimant thanked Danny
for his time, Danny then went on for several thousand words abusing the claimant
that he had proved he was a retard and now he and his mates could laugh at him more.

This is not what parapsychology is about, its about unbiased investigation into
the claims and not the personal lives of people merely because they have 'beliefs'.

But, due to the never ending courage of our hero Herc, I propose one more test.
This time, whoever does the test will use real words so that Herc has a chance
at following the set down procedure. Also, due to Herc being pretty hopeless on
the last test except the 1st question, each question has 1 FULL WEEK to answer.
A preliminary test will still take as much effort as the last test, but will take 5 weeks
to complete. That way, any Oracle ability on a meaningless pursuit will have full
potential to arise.

Any skeptics wishing to administer the test in the same fashion Danny did last week
reply here, and Danny if he's interested, and will state he will not cheat again or
sink to low levels as to turn the test into personal issues for the claimant.

The additional procedure is that on a set day of each week for 5 weeks, the claimant
will post his answer, be marked and given the next question.

Oh, and I'd just like to point out (not that it matters) that this paragraph
contains a number of outright lies. Firstly, I did not 'go on for several
thousand words'. I'm not going to count my words, but they can't have been
over two or three hundred. Secondly, I did not claim you were a 'retard' -
it's not a term I use. You are mentally ill, not retarded (or 'suffering
from learning difficulties', or whatever the appropriate phrase is -
whatever it is, it's not you). Thirdly, I did not 'abuse' you (with the
possible exception of the phrase 'you are ridiculous', which was something
of a rhetorical device to correspond with your complaint about 'being
ridiculed'). Fourthly, I stated clearly that I don't think anyone should
laugh at you: 'ridicule is not a good substitute for rational argument'.

I think that compared to most people who enter into discussions with you,
I've been pretty respectful. You might want to show me the same courtesy.

Danny, It isn't going to happen. Herc has a history of threats and
nonsense when he refuses to take his medication.

He has no paranormal powers whatsoever. He just convinces himself he
does.

Other people with mental illnesses who think they are god are usually
in institutions. Herc is sometimes socially functional, so the
Australian health system finds it cheaper and better to have them out
in the general community, until there are incidents with knives or
swords, and the Police get accused of being heavy handed when they
have to shoot or spray capsicum. It's still up for debate.

OK, you're a lying spastic idiot cheating scum who won't stand up for his errors
and instead uses the same cheap persecuting hand waving copout.

Sure I didn't miss some? Amazing the *answers* are in google for the *judges*
to check my paranormal link between names and my replies is a CHEAT, that's
pretty f*cking strict, you'd think having the paranormal events caught on permanant
record would be a plus, ignoring the procedure and making up bogus words for
someone to guess is CHEATING. 100s of people were in uproar at the
mere possibility of cheating a couple years ago, couldn't figure out they were
the answers for the *judges* to mark themselves, now its some different issue.

Final post on this subject. Actually, my final post to you on any subject.
Feel free to abuse me as much as you like from now on.

If this was against the protocol, you could easily have pointed this out at
the time. I would have been perfectly happy to change the words.

Perhaps you might want to consider why you're so angry about this. Could it
be because you're annoyed at not succeeding at the test? Or possibly because
you're trying to wriggle out of the fact that you failed at a test whose
protocol you set? You should be grateful for the fact that I saved you a
significant amount of money.

Here's James Randi doing a test, placing 10 bottles of water a foot underground.

The claimant has to divine water to find 8 of 10 bottles.

But Randi pisses in half the bottles instead and the claimant misses!

THATS OK SAYS DANNY, HE SHOULD HAVE SAID!

So exactly what is the main component of urine herc you berk ???

If the claim is that a water diviner can find 8 out of 10 bottles of
water then that is what he has to do..

That would be clever sarcasm to most people, but George is actually being a serious skeptic here.

Are you saying,

RULES
you think up 3 words I'll guess one.

Apparently it took him about a week to convince himself that he really
does have Amazing Powers, despite the evidence to the contrary.

If anyone can still be bothered, run it again using a predefined list
of words, e.g. -

one, two, three
four, five, six
...

However, I would encourage him to play for fun rather than money again.

And what's with the five weeks? Just put everything in a single post,
and let him reply whenever he decides he's ready. (Or is knowing the
answer to previous tests supposed to be critical to getting the next
one right?)

OK that's easier, may as well make it 10 Qs. there was an element of positive and
negative feedback but we can ignore that.

10 groups of 3 words, but 'meaningful' words. I have to think about the word,
open up a book to a random page and see if it fits into the text, the storyline.

And the password should be numbers 489338948794, 12 numbers is a trillion
combinations, I think that's on the verge of unbreakable, equivalent to about 8 letters.
16 numbers would be a feat to crack. Throw in a letter or two but "pr1vat3" is
like the Buddhas seal protecting the data isn't it?
