Instead of submitting your predictions publicly on the thread like normal, you send them in private to me.

See my edit to the schedule above for more info.

We run them occasionally as it makes things more exciting and unpredictable, especially on special weeks such as this one coming up.

I've been looking forward to this one! Most difficult DSRPG week ever?

All time legendary status awaits anyone who takes a 10er from the Royal Wedding!

Thanks! I was so busy rushing the schedule out, I forgot the basics. Have a nice holiday Pepsi.

Oh, and I promise not to look at your predictions until I send mine across to you later!

I think those three specials definitely are the most difficult ever! The rest of the schedule could have been harder, but frankly I was feeling sorry for you all by that point, hence Two Pints popping up in the main schedule.

LOL! It does.

Sent mine to Pepsi!

My confidence in the predictions, which was already low upon sending, has now collapsed completely having seen Pepsi and Pizza's predictions.

I feel this week is where my decent run in this game collapses.

As you can probably imagine, and without giving too much away, the range in predictions is pretty staggering already!

Each one I open I'm like "woah!"

No, the daily leaderboards will be posted as usual.

The only part that is "blind" is the actual predicting part. Once the deadline closes it becomes a pretty normal week, with who predicted what slowly revealing itself.

Predictions sent! Or rather, series-of-random-digits-I've-just-pulled-out-of-my-a*se sent!

Thanks, as ever, to Dancc. Understandably tough week - kudos to anyone who gets any points for anything wedding-related.

Oh, and Dancc - the RT site lists the wedding on ITV as a continuous show from 8:30am-4:30pm. Are we predicting a portion of the show (10:45 to when?) which I'm unable to see on the RT (I don't care - but the professional predictors may want specific times!)? Sorry if I'm misreading something.

Well, I've sent mine now. The royal wedding ones really are a total shot in the dark.

The portion we are predicting is 10:45am to 12:15pm as per DigiGuide:

http://uk-tv-guide.com/list/ITV1+London/29+April+2011/

I hadn't seen the RT listing until you pointed it out. I hope they haven't changed it at the last minute. But either way, we will use the timings above now.
