Post on Puzzles: a Request to everyone incl the List Admin

[Guest guest]

Dear Chandrashekharji & other members,

A humble Request on puzzles posting.

It has been observed that when a puzzle is posted, answers slowly

start coming in. Sometimes people wait for others to post, junior

members like me get swayed by analysis of learned members who post

first and then we start thinking in other tangentials without doing

original thinking. Also your kind self (CS) has replied to some

replies on the list already giving very clear hints and negating some

possibilities thereby eliminating Jyotish thinking of other members

on those same lines.

 

So can i request a method of answering puzzles.

 

1. The person posting the puzzle should set a definite deadline for

the answers.

2. The answers should be posted by members to the person directly

without posting it on the list.

3. AFter the deadline date the person can reveal the answer to the

puzzle and then also post the various answers given by various

members on the list.

This would avoid parallel or non-original thinking on the said puzzle.

 

If Chandrashekharji, Ramadasji, Raghu, Partha and Swee remembers we

had followed the above 3 point pattern a year back on a puzzle posted

by me to you all personally, in that there was superb analysis and

many came correct. I accept it was my mistake that as i got involved

in personal depresssion I didnt post the results on the list. I shall

see if i can get that old emails ( a year back ones) and repost the

results on the list.

The main purpose of that puzzle was to illustrate to young ones how

the each Guru participating in the puzzle had shown a NOVEL way of

seeing a chart and come to conclusion and the intent of the puzzle

was not to see the strength of each ones predictive techniques.

 

I feel if there is support from most members of this list we can

start that process again and most imp create a folder section in the

FILES section to store such puzzles eg PVRs puzzle on his job on Jan

26th 2004 - the answer to that posted by PVR is lost in the archives

and the new members shall never seen that brilliant analysis ever

again.

 

I have not stressed the first point but i am sure you all understand

what i am trying to communicate.

 

 

Salutations,

 

Sunil

 

P.S: I know the answer to this current puzzle posted by

Chandrashekharji as i just spoke to him, in the last 3 days of

interaction with him I failed on 2 accounts and on one account I came

close enough and the last one (CSji the dream) was 99% apt - Dhira's

answer clinched the deal, so I can say that I got swayed by his post.

BTW , today I got CSjis chart and for the last 3 days I didnt have

the chart, CS it would be nice if u would have been nice if u would

have posted ur chart along with ur puzzle, some new members on the

list might not have had ur chart.
