2011/12 Final Table Prediction Competition now open for business!

I will again donate £50 for a prize fund and should anybody feel generous enough to boost this further as ronny10 kindly did last season then please pm me.

T&Cs
One entry permitted from each FISO member, entries may be made at any time before the first kick off of the 2011/12 season, any entry may also be edited up to that point, the latest entry/ edit will be the one accepted as the competition entry. No new entries or edits will be accepted once the first match has kicked off.

Any entries that come from (or appear to come from) multiple IDs are likely to find themselves having a little chat with me wearing my mod hat giving them the choice of which one ID they want to keep for future forum use. Any new IDs that solely enter this competition are likely to be removed after a couple of months if the ID remains inactive on FISO.

Should any user name be deactivated whilst the competition is in progress then that entry will be removed from the competition.

Rules
Simply predict how the EPL 2011/12 will look at the end of the season, positions only.

Scoring
For each position predicted correctly you score 0 (zero) points, for every place each prediction is out out you score 1 point. e.g. predict Chelsea to finish first and they do then you score 1-1=0 points, predict Swansea to finish 18th and they finish 10th 18-10=8 points
Lowest total wins!

Tie Breaks
Firstly on the number of correct predictions
If still tied then the earliest final entry (after edits) - entry order will be shown in updates

Entry format
The easiest method for me to work with is simply by having a list posted of the 20 clubs in order without any numbers or comments. Alternatively an alphabetical list with the predicted position either in front or following separated by a coma. Please no full stops or comments and team names spelt correctly as given in the template below. Please ensure that you include all 20 clubs and when including a number for the position prediction not to duplicate/ omit some number(s). I will do my best to contact anyone that has made an error but if it has not been rectified by the first KO then that entry will be voided.

Updates
As time permits I will collect the entries regularly leading up to the season start, calculate a table from the predictions, post it and also post the standings from the accepted entries using that table.
During the season (again time permitting) I will endeavour to update weekly. I will include the "consensus" score with the updates as requested towards the end of last season.

Prizes
Prize fund = £50
1st £25
2nd £15
3rd £10


Teams/ template
Arsenal,
Aston Villa,
Blackburn,
Bolton,
Chelsea,
Everton,
Fulham,
Liverpool,
Man City,
Man United,
Newcastle,
Norwich
QPR,
Stoke,
Sunderland,
Swansea,
Tottenham,
West Brom,
Wigan,
Wolves,

If there is need for clarification/ rule changes they will be made ASAP and highlighted. Everything seemed to go well last season so hopefully everything is covered adequately.

I'm not sure many will be putting West Ham anywhere :lol:

Are we going to have some of the Pros's predictions in this season? It might make those of us at the bottom feel a bit better :?

Already edited that to Swansea.

No problem with guest predictions being included as they were in previous seasons, they will not be eligible for prizes though! :D

Not sure what I was doing earlier, the consensus should always have a zero score with all 20 positions correct as it's the base for the preseason calculations. Obviously I didn't paste the right values to the right place.

We're moving to a fairly solid top 7, a fluid mid-table and a 6 way battle for relegation.

Code:
  Pos   Team         total
   1    Man U          19
   2    Chelsea        28
   3    Man C          35
   4    Arsenal        46
   5    Liverpool      54
   6    Tottenham      71
   7    Everton        95
   8    Aston Villa   122
   9    Sunderland    122
   10   Stoke         128
   11   Bolton        131
   12   Fulham        139
   13   Newcastle     141
   14   West Brom     172
   15   Blackburn     189
   16   QPR           191
   17   Wigan         202
   18   Swansea       203
   19   Wolves        213
   20   Norwich       219


Code:
