After first googling what that word actually meant ,

it's probably one of the most popular prediction games on DS, 8 years running and with a hell of a lot of players, I think it would be a good idea.

Even just for the first week or two, then let it drop as the season goes on.

With this being the first year for the Prediction thread in the Games sub-forum it would be remiss of me to pass up an opportunity to dredge up some stats.

If you are wondering how many players did we have at this stage last season, or the season before, or the season before that, or ..... well you get the picture.

These are the total entries posted up to midnight on each day during the week leading up to the start of the each season (or until kick-off on the Saturday):

Code:
	Mo	Tu	We	Th	Fr	Sa
2006-07	09	12	12	13	20	22
2007-08	24	27	30	34	47	50
2008-09	24	34	37	48	61	68
2009-10	28	32	36	42	56	69
2010-11	23	31	35	41	58	71
2011-12	21	25	28	31	49	61
2012-13	28	35	41	50	71	87
2013-14	16
I will update the data again tomorrow by which time we might have a better indication of the effect on the numbers entering.

Hi all ... I've been doing this for years now . Dim, is there any chance you could post up my season-by-season scores if you get the chance? I actually had them on a word document but it's on my old laptop :/

I think Newcastle will be a difficult team to predict this season.

Never did get round to asking......were you even aware of the forum/comp in 2006 and 2007, Dim?

Anyway, count me in for this season's comp. Thanks.

I had no idea about the early competitions at the time. If I was aware I am sure I would have joined earlier than I did (given how dodgy TC's maths was ).

I discovered DS Forums in 2002 when I first got Sky+ and had a few problems with it, but I never joined. After a few years absence I re-discovered the forums towards the end of the Euro 2008 prediction competition and joined the PL one the following season.

Yeah the maths was so bad I'm afraid the early winners will have to be declared null and void
