Reservations just made for AC: What to expect from now through 2/2

As of yesterday, December 8, at 7:00 PM, reservations for Atlantic City HAVE BEEN MADE. As of now there is a 99 percent probability that we will be going to Atlantic City at this point, from February 2nd to February 4. While I am excited to be staying at the Borgata hotel (the hotel we booked a suite for), I still cannot be too excited because, judging by numerous probability experiments conducted before now, they turned out to be real experiments. This is something I am trying to avoid this time by providing data-informed verdicts as opposed to final verdicts.

I am also excited for the possible future result of this trend because Atlantic City is a "Charlotte for the Rich", based off of their lifts & the Borgata has super EPIC fast (time-efficient) OTIS lifts.

How might it go?

I CANNOT be too concrete here, but here is what I could tell you right now if the probability of us going is 100 percent by January 28:
  • Judging by the July 20 trip to Atlantic City, I am anticipating a 9:00 PM arrival at the earliest to the Borgata on the evening of February 3rd. However, I do not expect to gain the ability to film any lifts until very, very late at night.
  • The comedy show at Harrah's is not until 8:00 PM on Saturday, February 3rd. If we are not doing anything during the day besides staying at the hotel & if I do have enough time to, I am hoping film as many hotel lifts as I possibly could WITH PERMISSION FROM THE STAFF FIRST!
  • We are not leaving the hotel until the morning of February 4. During that morning, I'd like to film as many of the lifts I could film that morning that I did not have the time to film the day before.
Remember, nothing mentioned above is concrete, even if the probability does jump up to 100 percent. The only thing we could do here is remain optimistic & pray for only the best results.

Explanation of the trend above

The numbers, labeled on the bottom, from 1 to 8 are the number of weeks after the reservation is made (which is today, December 9). Week 8 is the week of January 28 & a final verdict is coming on February 1st at 5:00 PM, via the FRIRND hashtag on Google+.

The numbers, labeled on the left, from 92 to 100 is the percent probability of us going to Atlantic City. Starting with week 1, which is now, there is a cool 99 percent chance that we are going to Atlantic City on February 2-4. Tracing back to the good old Fort Lauderdale probability trends, we see a large dip in likelihood to 93 percent between weeks 3 & 4. Week 4 is December 31st. Furthermore, the probability is forecasted to stay at 93 percent until January 21st, where it will rise back to 99 percent (at this point a new, updated version of the graph will be posted on the EleFilm blog). My dream is that during week 8, the probability of us going does not fall anywhere below 99 percent. However, that rarely ever happens when trips are reserved over 30 years earlier.

Verdict days

We will keep you posted with updates on the EleFilm blog every 2 Saturdays starting today. This means you will get the next statistically-informed verdict on December 23rd at 8:45 AM. The final statistically-informed verdict will be posted on January 27 at 8:45 AM & the REAL final verdict will be on #FRIRND by 5:00 PM on Thursday February 1st 2018. The following blog post will be up on the EleFilm blog by February 2nd 2018 at 4:15 PM.

Found the source of the problems with my PC

I am proud to finally tell y’all that I believe I have found a definite source of the problems I have been experiencing with my Windows PC over the past few days. It was because of a faulty Windows 10 preview update which was affecting the Windows 10 Recovery Environment. Luckily, I have found a trustworthy program (free of malware) which I could use to debug errors in my PC at any time, minor or major. Luckily,  none of the problems I am experiencing with my PC right now are  anywhere close to what’s happened when I tried to fix windows PC’s in the past. I am still taking  every precaution possible to further decrease the chance of my Windows PC breaking down or crashing. As a matter of fact, my PC almost crashed  this morning , but luckily, I was able to hard-restart the PC to get it working again by holding the power button down for 15-20 seconds. Luckily,  none of the problems I am experiencing with my PC right now are  anywhere close to what’s h...

LIFT FILMING AGENDA UPDATE 1.25.2019 & WILL CHICAGO BE CROWNED THE NEW KING?

Chicago holds a high possibility of being crowned first place . What if I told you that Chicago has some rare and exotic lifts that you probably won’t find in many other places in the U.S.? That is an existence a lift filmer will be delighted with when they go to the city of Chicago. My four figures of reference were: WI Sirens and Elevators Elevators of Lake County CHI Elevators Windy City Elevators Because I have found so many outstanding Montgomery, Dover, SchindlerHaughton, Westinghouse and KONE lifts throughout the city of Chicago, it wouldn’t be sensible for me to write it all under one big blog post, because it would be a big waste of time for me to go into big, elaborate detail on what made each lift stand out. What I found on YouTube in terms of Chicago lifts Mitsubishi and Fujitec These lift filmers have walked around the city of Chicago filming some super nice lifts, and in the process of watching YouTube videos over the past few months, I have found that Ch...

QUICK RUNDOWN OF THE NORMAL BEHAVIOR OF A 700A

Tallest 700A’s I have been on Arguably, at 20 stories, these have been the tallest Schindler 700A’s I have EVER been on, and the first I’ve been on in a hotel. However, I have noticed some interesting characteristics of the Schindler 700A in mid to high rise applications. Epic lifts indeed To start off, these lifts had absolutely incredible acceleration, deceleration and leveling. They take off like rockets and travel at a mindblowing speed of 120 meters per minute, despite serving a travel distance of 55-60 meters. The deceleration is similar to the Schindler 700A’s at the Nordstrom store at the Mall at Short Hills, as it smoothly phases into its full deceleration mode. In terms of character, these lifts do tend to make a little bit of noise and shake on the way up and down the tower. Car 3 makes a very loud screeching noise as it accelerates towards level 17 going down, which I find to make the ride even more fun. These lifts were installed in 1993, which gives them even more 199...
