What else should be listed here? I think that's a pretty complete description of what a GuessFactor is. Note that GuessFactor != any specific targeting method. I thought that more technical information about any targeting method that makes use of GFs would have its own page (and possibly go under "See also"). --Voidious 18:11, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
- Hmm, I suppose a code example would be appropriate, anyway. I'll do that later today. --Voidious 18:18, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
