My all-time favorite was Chickenhead.

I sincerely hope no misfortune of any kind has befallen him...

I have an email exchange with him in the last 6 months or so . I think I remember a post or two from him in the last few months. He brings a lot of well thought out logic to a discussion when he posts.

I think Nate Silver ran Game Theory off on election night, unfortunately for us.

I was not run off, although after writing a post-mortem on that the next day which I annoyingly accidentally deleted, I decided to give it a rest for a bit. Couldn't motivate myself to continue that discussion. (I'm the main beneficiary of my long-winded scribblings, so even if they get lost I still have gained clarity in my own mind). So that turned into an extended hiatus as I lost the habit and have just been very busy with other things and wasn't doing any racing stuff. (I'm only here now because someone told me my name came up.)

Don't know what happened to chickenhead, I know he also had stopped playing quite a while before he stopped posting. I used to do programming for Larry Hamilton and would communicate often, but then he abruptly disappeared and I couldn't reach him (years ago now). He had health problems and I assume he is no longer with us unless someone else knows something? And then there are several major league a-holes and nutjobs on that list -- good riddance. (My apologies to those that would put me in that category for showing up today and annoying you.)

Haven't heard anything from Betchado for a long time. Also, anyone know whatever happened to Jim Bayle from Sportstat?

Suff was battling demons and moved on in an effort to eliminate all temptations.
