I was hyped and I thought that I could get the gold.\nI thought that the discussion was clear enough, but then it turned out it wasn't.\n\nIt's true that when I wrote the specifics, **I was almost certain that I'll have no gold**. I'm ashamed, but this had a little to do with the fact that I shared the specifics, I think.\n\nBut the real thing that made me write it was that I wasn't so sure that it works for everybody, and before it turns out that for someone it doesn't, they waste time on figuring out what I said, too..\nSo I wrote what I did and how it affected my CV score so that everyone can judge for themselves if this is really the route they want to take in their last days or not, so that I don't waste anybody's time with information that I'm not 100% sure will help..\n\nI'm not sure if I would've shared it if I was in the gold zone. I guess I would've in that case, too, but not sure.\nBut in the future I won't share anything so influential in the last couple of days, that one thing is for sure.",
