Am I the only one who's so amped about the prediction game, so much, that I start a topic about it?

Man, the standings are so tense, 67 points for the top 3 and even SPW on the 5th place is with 63, man... now I'm really nervous about it, because if I can't win the championship, at least I should get this one right.

Maybe we could use this thread to like share our predicting strategy with each other? Maybe. I'll start, you guys copy me!

I personally (when I'm not doing it in the last 10 seconds) go through each player's TEL and TUS Classic statistics, looking for recent games, looking for breaks, trying to figure out how active they are in the leagues. I compare the statistics of the two players based on experience, recent games and believed knowledge (where I think they are on an imaginary ladder) and games against each other. I usually take playing style into account - for example, I consider myself a sort of a darksider, I like defensive gameplay, I like hiding and waiting out, but there are very aggressive players also, or intermediate players, like chuvash, who take this scheme in a totally different way.

Then I compare their current standings on EAC and TEL (if any) and current streaks, who they played against with what results and judge the outcome after that.

Considering that I'm leading the prediction game with HHC, I think this is a good strategy.

How do you predict? Just by guts or do you have any routine by which you make your predictions? Did I just give away the winning formula? I doubt, anyway, really good race we are having this year!

i go by guts, apparently my guts are ALMIGHTY!

100% instinct.

I predict all games score in 30 seconds, then click 'Save' and rarely change any prediction. But that's me. And to clarify - we've got 3 leaders atm.

I bet for franz ;/ And all gamblers gets point, hah

this is like you beat AK with QT xd

We have got the same amount of points, but HHC and me predicted more scores than you, so that puts us in front.

Little reminder to predict the games for this week.

WIll be playing with Lales at 20gmt tonight, so dont wait till tomorrow

Im a little bit dissapointed about the generel activity in the pg. It cost about 30 seconds per week and you can win money for doing almost nothing. Human are so lazy 

It costs at least 30 minutes for me, I put a lot of thought into it.

But, then again, like last year, I was too busy to remember it in time and I messed up and forgot. Good game.

In the future you should perhaps consider making it possible to predict all the matchdays before the championship starts, people are less lazy when they have an opportunity to get the whole task done within one sitting ;d

Too busy? But you even made a topic for it this week so I cant believe you forgot it. 

Lol Ray, bad luck.. I feel sorry for you, you were so enthusiastic about it

good idea, guess that would help quite a few players ^^

only 4 points behind ray, and we're only halfway. 4 points is easy to overcome in a single matchweek. Hang in there bud
