Notes for Project August headlines:

The probability column in the following table means nothing for predictability…this is a number strictly for our research.

The # of Hits is exactly that. If a real-world headline comes out that registers a DreamSeer score, that is technically a “hit,” however, we typically don’t enter scores if they are less than about 2.5 to 3.0.

A note about dates: We are heavily tracking all the dates you can imagine in order to get really great data on WHEN certain things happen. For our purposes in the last column (Highest DreamSeer Hit), we eliminated DATE as a variable, and only looked at accuracy of the event. For example, the Spanish King stepped down 2 months prior to August, but the fact that this was outside August does not reduce the DreamSeer score (this applies only to Proj Aug at this point).

We did this because a high number of predicitons were coming true throughout the summer. There are many benefits to separating DreamSeer scores from the timing, and that will all come out in the post-August report.

Therefore, when you see any DreamSeer score in Project August, know that it no longer takes into account the date error (as long as the event took place sometime after the dream, linguistics, or projected headline).

Update September 03, 2014: Headlines currently hold an 89% hit rate with an average score of 3.9. Four headlines have been retired for a specific reason that is hopefully well-explained at the bottom of this page.

Headline Pruning

As I gain more experience with what is possible in dream prophecy, I just simply stutter when looking back on some of my predictions. Just looking at them now makes me squirm in displeasure.

I decided to do just a little bit of pruning on the ones I consider “senseless” and “unfair to both parties.” Here were the rules I gave myself….I was not allowed to close out headlines that had no hits or that I simply thought would never get a hit. The second rule was to eliminate those headlines that hurt both communities: 1) the dreamers / predictors and 2) the skeptics / onlookers.

For example, we had a headline called “The Otherlies.” I can show an emphatic 5.0 score for this headline, but it just feels wrong because there’s no real substance here. In essence, there’s no pure score that can satisfy either camp. Plus, I can simply say “The Otherlies” on any given week and get a plethora of supportive news to develop a high score. Therefore, Headline #48 is gone.

Headline #9 is also now deleted. “Something in the Southern Hemisphere” just gives me the willies. Both camps here have to acknowledge that something happens everyday in the Southern Hemisphere, and I have enough material to give us a 5.0, but it just doesn’t feel right claiming it. Therefore, that headline is gone.

Headline #64 is scratched off because it said, “Something BIG is birthed.” Well, first of all, what is considered BIG and what is considered birthed? Absolutely ridiculous and unhelpful. Incidentally, I have a few hits here that can give this headline a technical 5.0, but again, I feel like a used car salesman if I attempt to take credit for it. Therefore this one is gone also.

Does the Pruning Affect the Stats?

The pruning actually hurts our stats. It doesn’t affect the hit rate by a noticeable level (+/- 0.1%), but our average hit score actually goes down because of this move. I’m doing the pruning out of principle, and I actually see several more I would like to delete, but I decided to limit this move to just the bare minimum.
