2017/18 League TwoTable Predictions

[Vanni]

Here're a few other scores. I'm up to page 4 of this thread and this is how the table looks up to that page. Slowly but surely getting there.......

SVH - 116
Cufc17 - 118
Vanni - 122
George Reilly's Hairpiece - 126
FGR Stroud - 128
Redfox - 128
Urban - 130
Yella Fella - 130
Frealaf - 132
Buxton Vale - 142
Crewelad87 - 142
Northstandexile - 144

GTFCfish - 230

 

[Vanni]

SVH and Cufc17 both made some changes to their predictions, and I've worked out their scores on their revised table. Only little problem is that I'm sure that cufc17's revised table was meant as joke (post no.138) but I don't know if you agree with me that I should disregard that post and work out his score on his earlier one???

I vote yay.

I'm off to listen a couple of new albums I just got so please do excuse me. I'll pick this up again tomorrow. Cheers

Just shows that being a lazy bastard and using a random number generator thingy instead of putting any thought into it to try and work out the table does fuck all for ya, eh GTFCfish

How are you calculating these?? Is a high score good or bad??

Erm, Good, (cough)......

 

[Chris FGR]

Is a high score good or bad??

Depends if you wanna stand out from the crowd or not....

 

[Vanni]

How are you calculating these?? Is a high score good or bad??

Calculating scores is easy enough, and the lower the score the better. If say you had Luton in 4th then you get -2 points as they finished second (4-2 =2). Similarly if you had Accy down in 17th then you lose 16 points as they ended up winning the title.

The time consuming part is not the scoring, it's sifting through all the other posts to get to the actual table predictions.

Is this your new version of BULLISH and/or head and shoulders, or something?

What about the minus bonus points for getting your post in early? I believe it was -100 if you did it on the first day?

 

[Vanni]

Now, what about cufc17's prediction? He only swapped around Grimsby and Lincoln after heeding Crazy Imp's advice, but I'm sure it was only #bantz.

Yay or nay? What say you?

You still won't win it SOC, it will be Yella Fella's win if this was the case. Seriously, the chap's score of 130 is impressive seeing he predicted as early as May!

Was my 118 for the revised version? If so I’ll take that, especially knowing I’d have easily won with my original!

Fair play for working the scores out though

Yep, 118 is for the revised, and yep, you'd have won this easily I reckon. But I'm still on page 4 and the lateish predictions are (usually) better than the early ones so we'll soon* find out. SVH's score is also for his revised table.

*soon as in two days time, not like now

 

[GTFCfish]

This isn't making any sense to me as I'm bottom by miles which seems like it's really bad, but my missus told me I should always try to come last so I'm a bit confused here.

As you can all clearly see, submitting your predictions in f'king May does not work.

I'm off to feed Theresa the goldfish now. Take care.

 

[LongEatonPie]

Good work Vanni, thank you for doing this. Although every update I dropped further and further down the table.
Bit like the predicta I suppose!

 

[Son of Cod]

For everyone concerned about their current position I will be applying the early bonuses once Vanni has done his bit.

I have only included 442's score so as to highlight that when the experts speak, the idiots should listen and keep their gob shut. Like this fella for instance -

"Exactly my thoughts when I saw that 442 prediction. Accy in 4th looks ridiculous, and so does Stevenage in 5th, however tbf I won't be the slightest bit surprised if the latter really push for the play offs as they're quite unpredictable tbf, and have a decent side IMO. Barnet will most definitely not be in 22nd place come May. IIRC I had them down to make the top 10 but if they don't then I'd expect them to finish in a comfy mid table position, even if they do end up losing Akinde.

Also thought they had Newport too high on that list, and above FGR and Grimsby which I don't reckon is that likely to happen" - YOURS TRULY

That's not one or two wrong calls but four!

*Thanks to GloverGing for posting 442's predictions

 

[Luke Imp]

Not great for me in the L2, but I did win the NL one!

 

[Luke Imp]

I paid up £20 to Crohn's Disease pretty much the day you lot made it to the playoffs, sent confirmation to GodsGift on Instagram. I think I said I was pulling out the other bet(s?) because I didn't want to give 1FF any money, though? I'm more than willing to pay up if I didn't, but I'll need to have a look at previous posts. Was a thread ever made?

I think there was but it died a death.

Well done, SoC!

 

[Vanni]

At last! Here's the full table. Congrats to Red Dragon on his very impressive score of 104.
