David Anderson

Good morning. Just a couple of random questions.

Has anyone ever won a week and then finished bottom the next?

Has anyone ever had a perfect week or near perfect - all predictions or very nearly all were spot on?

Green Steel

20-03-2013

Is this making our own schedule thing going ahead then, or are we sticking to the status quo?

If a player scored 15 near misses (ie out by just 0.1m) - 12 x 3 and 3 x 6 = 54 points. Getting a special show spot on is pretty lucky I would say - although some shows are virtually identical - week after week.

I am not sure if I haven't seen a score of 60 for a regular week. I know high scores have been achieved with super schedules.

I think it probably has happened a couple of times though I can't name the unfortunate players off the top of my head.

I don't think so - for a normal schedule the number of points available is 60 for the mains, 30 for the specials and a further 25 for the backups; I've never seen a score near 115 before.
Near misses have been few and far between but I can't guarantee there haven't been any.

Originally Posted by Green Steel:

I haven't quite decided yet; I don't want players to be scared off by it. If it does happen it will be for just one week (maybe two if it's really successful) of the season rather than every single week.

Week Twelve: Wednesday Update

- Bedtime Live (1.3m) averaged 3.0 points. grahamzxy and Jonwo both sleep easy after scoring 5ers.
- The Syndicate (SPECIAL - 5.4m) averaged 5.5 points. Dancc, David Anderson, Green Steel and remy all picked up 10ers.

The current joint leaders of the week are Dancc and remy.

The overall leaderboard looks like this:

Code:

                                Main    All

24	Lion_60................	9	12
25	Yugimuto1..........	5	6

* Average score: 17.8 points
* Full points for the specials see Dancc and remy leap to the top of the board but it's very tight behind.
* The biggest improver of the update is Green Steel who shot up ten places.
* Good luck with tonight's prediction as Crimewatch throws it's figure into the mix.
