Hi all,
I'm going to run the Win Total Prediction competition again this year, because I found it fun and interesting to see how people's expectations changed over the course of the season. Hopefully we'll get a lot of entrants! For those of you who are new/don't remember, the format is thus:
- All entrants must submit a prediction for the number of wins each team in the League will achieve during the regular season.
- There are a total of 1230 games played over the course of the season, so your predictions must sum to 1230 wins.
- For each team, you score the difference between your prediction and the number of wins they actually end up getting.
- To add some spice, in each Division you must choose one team who's score will count double.
- The lowest total score wins.
- You will be allowed to make changes to your prediction until the day before the start of the season. I will formally announce the cutoff point nearer the time.
Last year I didn't get around to updating things too often, but this year I'm hoping to find the time to create a little website that will let you see how you're getting on and compare with other competitors. We'll see how that goes.
Please add your predictions in this thread, marking your choices for doubling in bold. The rules about editing posts have been changed since we did last year's, so if you want to make changes to your choices then just add a new post to the thread, ideally with a note saying you've changed your mind. I will take the most recent set of predictions from each user taking part.
Have fun! I'll post my own set of predictions later tonight.
