Chewie Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 Welcome to the Championship 2016/17 VT prediction league, you can join in at any time during the tournament but please make sure you follow the instructions carefully. However, if you are just thinking about just playing for a single week, or are going to lose interest after a couple of weeks, then do us all a time saving favour and don't bother playing.-- Making a Prediction -- Head on over to https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1JJHBdYRs_tzHsVDF1lpSoNIvr6E0nthT6nE47V_UQ44/edit#gid=1394360931 Make sure you are selecting the right sheet for the Gameweek (inactive sheets will be fully locked) Find the first 'blank' entry with all scores set as '0-0' and 'ENTER YOUR NAME HERE' as the name Green Cells are for you to enter stuff into, all other cells are not! Fill in your predicted scores for each game When entering your name, make sure it is EXACTLY the same as your VT name and that it doesn't have any erroneous spaces and is CaSe SeNsEtIvE Incorrectly entered names, even if it is just a space at the start or a capital letter, will result in tracking errors throughout the tournament Once your prediction is complete, copy the cells within the dotted line and post them into this VT thread If you do not post the results correctly into this thread then your prediction will be ignored Thread banter is encouraged, but please post banter before your pasted predictions. Gameweek already started? No problem you can still play, just put the score for the games you have missed as N-A, e.g Fulham N-A Villa -- When will prediction threads be posted up? -- Generally I will try and post threads on Tuesday or Wednesday of each week, but this may slip at times. Just keep an eye on the forum and it'll be there before the games start. Gameweek matches will follow those as laid out on the BBC Championship fixtures page, let me know if I miss something due to a game being moved or postponed etc. -- Previous Gameweek Results -- Name Result Points Score Points Total Points Daniel 8 15 23 TheAuthority 8 9 17 andykeenan 8 9 17 Hornso 6 9 15 Czechlad 6 9 15 Villaphan04 7 6 13 Chewie 6 6 12 Rodders 6 6 12 kurtsimonw 5 6 11 rubberman 7 3 10 Demitri_c 6 3 9 Villianusa 6 3 9 chappy 3 3 6 An absolute bumper week for Daniel, getting a whopping 15 points from correct scores. TheAuthority finally has a decent week, and the majority of the pack hit double digits. Poor old chappy is still getting to grips with the Championship bless him Name Points from Correct Results Points from Correct Scores Total Points GWs Played Avg Points per GW Daniel 20 18 38 3 12.7 andykeenan 19 18 37 3 12.3 Chewie 21 15 36 3 12.0 TheAuthority 20 12 32 3 10.7 Hornso 19 9 28 3 9.3 kurtsimonw 15 12 27 3 9.0 Villaphan04 18 6 24 3 8.0 Demitri_C 13 9 22 3 7.3 Rodders 16 6 22 3 7.3 Czechlad 9 12 21 2 10.5 villianusa 14 6 20 3 6.7 rubberman 11 3 14 2 7.0 chappy 10 3 13 2 6.5 imavillan 4 3 7 1 7.0 chappy 3 3 6 1 6.0 theboyangel 3 0 3 1 3.0 And I said in the GW3 thread "The ever present Daniel sees himself sitting in fourth, but a betting man like myself would place a wager on him moving up from there.". Unfortunately for me, Betfair told me to go screw myself when I asked them for a custom bet So with that bumper week, Daniel sees himself in the top spot with andykeenan moving into second and your gracious host dropping down to third. It's tight up top though, and Its all change from there downwards. -- My (Chewie's) Prediction for this Gameweek -- Name Home Team Away Team Guess Wednesday 2 1 Leeds Wednesday Birmingham 1 1 Wolves Draw Blackburn 1 0 Burton Blackburn Bristol 0 2 Newcastle Newcastle Fulham 2 1 Cardiff Fulham Huddersfield 3 1 Barnsley Huddersfield Forest 2 2 Wigan Draw QPR 2 0 Preston QPR Reading 3 1 Brighton Reading Rotherham 1 1 Brentford Draw Derby 1 2 Villa Villa Ipswich 1 1 Norwich Draw Chewie When pasting your prediction table you might want to hit enter a couple of times before you post your prediction in. The editor makes life difficult to create a new line after you paste the table in if you haven't 'entered' a couple of times first. -- Bets -- In each Gameweek I will aim to select two predictions of my choosing, one for correct results and one for Both Teams to score (Yes/No). I shall then place a £1 accumulator on each of those bets, should they win I will give the predictor 20% of the winnings to be paid via Paypal. Bets were placed in last weeks thread, both lost -- Good Luck -- Good luck to everyone for the week, and please don't be a bitch and mess with other people's predictions in the Google Sheet, there's a good girl No Friday game this week, so be ready for the first game on Sat.

chappy Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 If you add the two of me together in the overall results table I move up one place! These small victories are important when you're as bad at predicting as I apparently am Cocked up with the Wednesday result though, put Burton to win in another predictor I'm doing, should've kept the faith here too!

Having two of you happens when you leave an errant trailing space after your name in GW3! I'll fix this for next week, but be mindful of it in the future, please. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
