Bristolatic Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 (edited) So, off we go with the first game of the season. Because there are now three different points to be gained with attendance predictions, they are all lumped into the same column. A big shout out to Zorrro, without whose input, the tables would have been more complicated and taken a lot longer. Actually, he designed the thing improving on the last few season's format . LaticsChris swept the board with seven correct predictions, but give it up for Harry Bosch, hitting the attendance spot on with his first ever attempt and jorvik_latics was bloody close too. There was no prediction from Carl Waters. You've got to be in it to win it. Where The Subscription League Points Went: Correct result W,L,D – aidan_latics, disjointed, LaticsChris, lookersstandandy, milnrow latics, rosa, SAV, underdog, warwickshire latics Correct Half Time Score – 24hoursfromtulsehill, Andy-latic, astottie, GravityGrave, JoeP, laticdickovarmy, LaticsChris, lookersstandandy, milnrow latics, nzlatic, rudemedic, stevesidg, Stevie_J Correct Full Time Score – disjointed, LaticsChris, milnrow latics, rosa, SAV Correct No of Latics Goals – astottie, disjointed, Ex_pat, GravityGrave, laticdickovarmy, Latics_Fanatic, Laticsbiffo, LaticsChris, milnrow latics, NewBlue, rosa, SAV, Zorrro Correct No of Opposition Goals – Andy_latic, Bristolatic, DavidCollinge, disjointed, Handsy, HarryBosch, jorvik_latic, LaticsChris, LaticsPete, milnrow latics, rosa, rudemedic, SAV, stevesidg, First Latics Scorer – HarryBosch, LaticsChris, NewBlue, rosa Within 100 of Attendance (5,009) – Handsy (-42), Latics_Fanatic (-44), LaticsChris (-57), LaticsPete (-88) Within 10 of Attendance (5,009) – jorvik_latics (+4) Correct Attendance (5,009) – HarryBosch ============================================================================================== Only four predictions in the Free-to-Play League, but feel free to join at any time and make it more competitive. Oafc 1895 gets off to a flyer and leads after the first game. Where The Free-to-Play League Points Went: Correct result W,L,D – No points here Correct Half Time Score – Oafc 1895 Correct Full Time Score – Nope Correct No of Latics Goals – Oafc 1895, opinions4u Correct No of Opposition Goals – John Platt First Latics Scorer – No one went for Forte Within 100 of Attendance (5,009) – Oafc 1895 (+76) Within 10 of Attendance (5,009) – Not this time Correct Attendance (5,009) – Nor here Reason for edit: All the points scored in the Free-to-Play League were allocated to the wrong predictors. I'm not sure how it happened, but all is now well. Thanks to Oafc 1895 for letting me know. Edited August 11, 2015 by Bristolatic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zorrro Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Time pressure meant I had to do a quick and dirty calculation sheet. I've already earmarked the improvements for next year's. Your job's going to be made even simpler, I promise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaticsChris Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Looks like a perfect prediction isn't enough to top the league these days. I'd better start studying average attendance figures! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshOWTB Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Can we not just make the first week a practice week? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My formula knowledge doesn't extend as far as yours, but it does sound as though my Prediction League contract has already been extended.

lookersstandandy Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 ....surprised the mods went with 20 points for exact attendance.... I thought 10 was sufficient! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarryBosch Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 ....surprised the mods went with 20 points for exact attendance.... I thought 10 was sufficient! 50 would be more appropriate I'd say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bristolatic Posted August 11, 2015 Author Share Posted August 11, 2015 ....surprised the mods went with 20 points for exact attendance.... I thought 10 was sufficient! Because it happens so rarely, and there's now additional points for being within 10, we felt that it was worth the extra if you hit it bang on. Then along comes HarryBosch.

NewBlue Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 If I'd have known this would be the first week table a week ago I wouldn't have played. 20 points off the pace after 1 match, already having to pin hopes on HarryBosch going one gif too far and getting himself a site ban Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
