The Apprentice Predictor allows fans of the show to try and predict the result, by scoring each candidate out of ten each week. I have been doing this with a group of friends for the past few series of the show so it is tried and tested. Upon discovering these forums earlier this year I thought that this would be an ideal place for other Apprentice fans to join in.

The game is simple, I will start a new thread each week where all players will rank each remain candidate out of ten, based on how long they expect the candidate to last in the process. I will then convert these scores into points depending on how close you were to the actual result. More information on how it works can be found here: howitworks.apprenticepredictor.com.

I understand this isn’t for everyone, it will require you to make these predictions before each week before the episode (missing a week will lose you many potential points), but I would appreciate a few people giving it a go. If you do want to take part follow the instructions below, good luck.

IMPORTANT: Double episode means Week 2 predictions must be made on Thursday 15th October, you normally have the full week.

Love things like this!
One quick question, though - how could a candidate finish in eleventh or twelfth place if it's for that week? And if it's not for that week, but an overall thing, do we predict every week where we think they'll finish?
Sorry - willing to take part though!

Sorry, i made a mistake on the site as was expecting 16 candidates, it should say 12th or 13th and i'll change that now. But yes, you score all remaining candidates out of ten each week. Thanks for your interest.

S'okay, looks interesting

Joseph 1
Elle 2
Mergim 2
Brett 3

Vana 4
Ruth 4
April 7

Aisha 8

Scott 9
Sam 9
Charleine 10

Sorry if the formatting went weird :/
Reckon there'll be a female winner this year, but not liking the look of many of the women, and the ones I do like will probably be gone soon. Charleine seemed slightly ditzy but I guess I'll go for her.
Joseph to go first - don't know why...

Thanks the formatting is fine
Make sure you make your next predictions next Thursday due to double episode (i'll start a new thread for it).

If you could give less than 1, I would give it to April; she didn't talk about any business skill and being in a beauty contest years ago does and being Jamaican does not mean you will be a good business person??

Haha, yeah she's certainly one of the more annoying ones. Minus scores would break my system though

Ok, so the situation is that i've had 3 replies (including 2 private messages), which isn't really enough for it to work the way i imagined. I accept that the threads had a fair amount of views, so maybe it's just not as good an idea as i thought.

Either way, i'll keep it going for the next few episodes at least just in case it does pick up. If you do want to take part, first predictions must be in by 9PM this Wednesday and the following predictions by 9PM this Thursday.

Thanks, Robbie
