Scorecard

I think it’s a good idea to keep a scorecard of how I’ve done on R4 and R5 rumors. I’ve gone back to the first of this year so far. If I get a chance I may try to go farther back, but for now this is all the time I can put into going back. I do intend to keep it up for future rumors.

Remember, an R1 through an R3 is a rumor that I’m just putting out there but not saying is true.

My goal is to try to keep the R4’s at at least 80% if not closer to 90% accurate, and to have the R5’s at very close to 100% accurate.

Some rumors will likely not have a way of verifying later, so those will not be figured into the percentages.
