I thought I was pessimistic in only predicting a win by 1 goal to nil

Top scorer was Bahamoth, with 8 points (Entry + Half-time + Bonus), with RoyalPITA and Darlington close behind with 6 points (Entry + Scorer - Donaldson). Six of our 14 participants got more than a point out of their forecast. RoyalPITA - 483 = 477 + 1 (Entry) + 5 (Scorer - Donaldson) tidus_mi2 - 409 = 408 + 1 (Entry) Owlish52 - 401 = 400 + 1 (Entry) Gwent Royal - 397 = 394 + 1 (Entry) + 2 (Half-time Score) Camb-Royal - 377 = 376 + 1 (Entry) Clyde1998 - 355 = 354 + 1 (Entry) mason1871rfc - 343 = 343 + 0 diab0 - 333 = 330 + 1 (Entry) + 2 (Half-time Score) Tilehurstsouthbank - 321 = 320 + 1 (Entry) Royal Crisp - 276 = 275 + 1 (Entry) RoyalJoe - 262 = 259 + 1 (Entry) + 2 (Half-time Score) Zip - 212 = 211 + 1 (Entry) cribsie - 182 = 182 + 0 Darlington - 172 = 166 + 1 (Entry) + 5 (Scorer - Donaldson) Foxxinator - 93 = 93 + 0 Bahamoth - 98 = 90 + 0 royalbiscuit - 60 = 60 + 0 royalwiki - 32 = 32 + 0 CavershamRoyal - 6 = 6 + 0 Halifordroyal - 1 = 0 + 1 (Entry) Right Said Frank Sharp - 1 = 1 + 0 Batfloke - 1 = 1 + 0 |

2 games left and with a bit of luck i might just catch Crisbie. Think Zip is just a bit too. In the end not bad considering I only started in December. |

If we calculated a table based on the last 6 games, I'd be right up there! I've got the same amount of points as RoyalPita from these games. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Would be good to see how many games we have all entered predictions for and then we can see an average score/game for this season. Be interesting to see who is highest average and so the most consistent predictor. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Yeah, because some people haven't consistently played (me) and done quite well (purely from dumb luck) in those few games played. It would be interested in seeing the average. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Ask and thou shall receive (at least this once):
It is very important to note that these averages are strongly affected by performance in the Gold Games. For example, tidus_mi2 had a game max score of 50 points (~1/8th of his point total) in the Derby FA Cup match; Clyde1998 and mason1871rfc each had 40 points (~1/9th their totals) in that same match, but Darlington, RoyalPITA and Zip had only 2 points each in the same match. Of course, it's almost all luck here, and a bit of determination to get a guess in. I included Bahamoth, as while he has a low number of predictions, he has been active (and successful! ) recently.I tried to do some statistical analysis (an excellent way to lie with numbers, IMO) but every entrant had very high values for the standard deviation, which IMO confirms that this is a matter of luck and not skill or knowledge. I'd suggest a second data point to confirm that - I have done fairly well in the competition, and I'm likely the _least_ knowledgeable person about Championship football on the site! *Adjusted to correct a scoring error.
