Prediction League 1: Table

[Magic Man Fan]

I really should make an effort to predict every week. My average is up there with the top. I propose a new rule for next season, your points are worked out on averages (points divided by matches) but you have to predict at least 35 matches during the season.....

Stuff and nonsense!

I haven't missed a single prediction in over three years - why should we pander to your glaring incompetence?

:wink:

And Saigon is an expert when it comes to glaring incompetence.

28 players, highest score : sj with 5 points, congrats!!!!! Only 1 big O for tinned, sorry Dave, can't give all you want :wink: Whitti was impressed by his 1st position and only scored 1 point so four Oaks is on top again!!!!

[jeffsmate]

Has anyone noticed how i'm creeping up the league table,? :mrgreen:

You still wouldn't be winning even if we did use your ridiculous system. I would. :mrgreen:

Indeed you would Exy, with Manchester Saddler and Jeffs Mate close behind! MMF would be languishing around only 9th / 10th-ish. I think he has had a touch of the Wengers this week! :wink:

I agree, Brighton away first match of the season....

Has anyone noticed how i'm dropping down the table :(

[SaigonSaddler]

Please publish an updated list as I want to enjoy being ahead of Manchester again! :mrgreen:

Budding Platinis and Blatters , the lot of you.

Since no-one has predicted this (arbitrary) 35 matches figure,TyldesleySaddler would be top.

at last an updated table, week 22. Kevin with 4 points is our week-winner, 6 big O's, me included :cry: , and maybe more but that depends on the colchester-carlisle game.

Thanks for doing this Bart, giventhe busy time of year. I think the table for Week 23 will be interesting as there were a few near the top who got 4 points from my calculations so could see a shift in leadership!!

[SaigonSaddler]

Delightful reading Bart :D

[Flemish Saddler]

working on week 23 now so will be updated tonight

[Flemish Saddler]

jolly said it would be nice to see the updated table after week 23 and indeed: changes at the top. Highest score with 4 points: Manchester, Exile, stig231,MMF, Wyrley and Flemish: congrats to all!!!! No big 0's. Again a new leader now: stig 231 but only 1 point clear to a trio: Manchester, Whitti and Saigon and also our former leader (Four Oaks) is very close!!!

Cheers again for this Bart. Not to disappoint the 2 boys concerned (!) but you do realise that Jockey and Atomic Rooster did their predictions after the 12 o'clock deadline for week 22, yet have been updated for this table? Not to be pedantic but rules are rules! :wink:

i know jolly but i received a pm from one of the two almost in panic that the internet was broken and they tried to be on the net all the time and :cry: :cry: :cry:
even I am a human and if people are getting emotional ..... :wink:

So do Jockey's and Atomic Rooster's predictions count?

:? Okay Bart, I guess we need to let you judge the plea on it's merits! If someone is getting seriously upset over missing a week of predicting (which others of us have done in the past :wink: ) then I guess you should do what you feel is best.

The only problem is it opens a door for people to appeal for missing the deadline all the time. People could make a case whether they were a few minutes or a few hours past the deadline. Just potentially makes more work for you that's all.

Maybe allow people one 'mulligan' a season and after that tough!! :D

[SaigonSaddler]

More enjoyable reading Bart! :D

2nd!

Haven't been 2nd for quite a while! :D 8)

While I'd normally applaud stringent application of the rules, they did only miss the deadline by a few minutes...

Not that I take predicting very seriously (it's only a bit of fun after all*) I have in the past rushed down to the local library to post predictions after my home computer's connection jammed.

On two out of three occasions I got no points anyway!



*It's not just a bit of fun and I do take it quite seriously, more of a psycotic compulsion actually
:lol:

Are yes Slygon, the robber of my week one predictions.

I & others missed the week one predictions as the thread was posted by Slygon without official authority, once we had already set off for Brighton away.

Therefore can we please have our "Mulligan" this Saturday, by allowing us to pick and be scored from 6 predictions instead of the usual 3?

Fancy wasting time going to away games when you should have been predicting!

[Flemish Saddler]

i've been strict on the rules more than once, i didn't post anymore a few weeks ago only being about 15 minutes late but if two of the regular posters are a few minutes late and they send me a pm to tell there were problems with the connection, i believe them. It's indeed only a game but i remember that i was angry on myself for many hours because i was too late. Can't punish two of the regulars if it wasn't indeed their fault. Must admit that if this competition had a big price like two seasons ago, it should have been a NO.

[Flemish Saddler]

Lots of points scored and highest with 4 points: Pedro, MMF, Jockey, Four Oaks and maybe some more when *-games are played, congrats!!!!
Three leaders this week: Four Oaks, Saigon and stig231 and only 1 point away are whitti and manchester so getting more excited every week!!!! No big O's at all!!!!
