What's going on ...

Hi, I got a mail from Zindi requesting my model for this comp ... this has not even been scored yet. What is going on? Happened to anybody else?

Ok great I suppose, thanks for letting me know, so safe to ignore I guess.

@Koleshjr really wanted to attend your session, been commited elsewhere, but perhaps next time and thanks anyhow.

I think we should not ignore the email. The best would be to send them the solution. If they sent the emails to get the solutions then they surely have our private scores; just that it hasn't been updated on the platform.

Probably an error by Zindi because Stats SA releases the official numbers on the 19th of July.

Yeah, this is why it is so perplexing ... the private is not yet known.

Hiya Skaak, I messed up the private leaderboard reveal time. A provisional CPI is released 1 week before the actual release. I based the private leaderboard reveal on that (but don't update the private reference file), but as it is not the actual CPI value I need to wait for CPI to be released before scoring and revealing.

In short, I forgot to double check the private leaderboard reveal time.

Apologies! New emails should be sent out today.

Hi Amy - thanks for update, now the mystery is clarified.

Provisional CPI - what provisional CPI?

I think it is something certain people at the bank receive first but I think they are under lock and key until the actual results are released.

It is released a week early but is subject to change.
