[Spurlock]

[Spurf]

Table now added!

I thought you were perfect SD.

I thought you were perfect SD.

I am Table added cause I started the thread before the previous one was done (hence the sticky/unsticky comments). As good as I am, I can't post the table before the results are all in!

You are perfect! my mistake, obviously.

 

[O.Spurcat]

Bizarrely he only got 4 results right, but got each one exactly right

Arsenal 1 WBA 0
Villa 0 Stoke 0
Soton 2 Reading 1
Sunderland 0 Chelsea 2
Swansea 1 Norwich 1
Wigan 2 QPR 0

City 2 Utd 2
Everton 2 Spurs 3
West Ham 1 Liverpool 1
Fulham 2 Newcastle 1
Sunderland 1 Reading 1

EDIT: Bugger, got this week wrong. Will redo. Posted results in before the games finished and didn't update them . Will redo the table. Not a ****ing word Spurf

 

[O.Spurcat]

Arsenal won 2-0 and Chelsea won 3-1 at Sunderland.

.

 

[notsosmartspur]

I scored 13 aswell mate, no difference to my place, but I'm a point nearer my target (who's a few points ahead! )

Mind the gap !!!!

[SpursDisciple]

Table has been reposted due to me getting it completely arse about face. The fact that I am human and make mistakes will come as a shock to all of you and may lead you to question long held beliefs and values. All I can say is it wont happen again.

SD, don't feel bad! I admire anyone who gives their time to do these.

 

[Spurlock]

How come I was on 83 with just amassing 3 points yet now it's 4 and I'm still on 83?

I've been playing all season yet someone joins 15 games in and I could still finish below him.

I'm not happy about this...plus I need a copy of the rules again if I may??

2 issues here

1) I haven't kept a record of the table before, but if you had 3 points before, the table would look like this, with you clearly on 82 points. So I hope that this is just a mistaken memory.

Glen Johnson League
10 SpursDisciple 98
11 deedub93 94
12 Junction8Spurs 92
13 Blue and White 90
14 LittleDinosaurLuke 89
15 MaverickLFC 83
16 Spurlock 82
17 Ginger Pele 78
18 Chirpy Rides Again 58

2) With Maverick joining, I did ask for views on where to start him. To start on zero at this stage would mean that no one would join as they would be miles behind, so I suggested the approach of starting him on the same as the bottom player. If Chirpy had not left the league, then he would have been some way behind, but above him was a cluster of people not very far behind the rest, and so he has joined in close proximity to the rest of the league. Couldn't think of a fairer way of doing it. I did however ask if anyone objected, and no one did.

However, what I can do to even this up is to add points to Luke and yourself who joined after weeks 3 and 4 respectively. The points I would have added at the time had I applied the rules in the same way are 7 to Luke and 10 to yourself. I will include these on next week's table as it will confuse the life out of everyone if I post a 3rd version.

Is this ok?

You can check old tables just by going to your profile and selecting View Latest Started Threads, SD.
Here's a link to your last one, where Dona had 79 points: http://www.not606.com/showthread.php/182768-Prediction-League-week-15

Not keen on giving out points to those who joined late, though.

 

[Spurlock]

Seems fair SD.

Yes you did ask and there's no issue with newbies from me.

It just dawned upon me that there seems to be a bit of a lopsided advantage to the newbie having seen the table and quite embarrassing to think after 15 weeks I find myself a point ahead of a newbie

I suggest there is a cut off point of x amount of weeks after which you can't join or quite frankly a newbie starts on zero as me and Luke did. Your idea seems fair, cheers SD

PNP...cheers for that

 

[remembercolinlee]

Cheers for all the time you put in SD...

Newcastle 2 City 3
Liverpool 1 Villa 1
Utd 2 Sunderland 0
Norwich 1 Wigan 1
QPR 0 Fulham 1
Stoke 0 Everton 1

Spurs 1 Swansea 2
WBA 2 West Ham 2

Reading 1 Arsenal 2

 

[KingHotspur]

Cheers for adding MaverickLFC in and on 79 points, gives him a chance to try and be competitive.

I will get his predictions later in the week, he doesnt keep weird hours like myself.

Yes, please.

Although I think I might have managed 30 points in those first three weeks [/QUOTE]

Do you really!...you've been unable to maintain 10 pts a week since, so why would the first 3/4 weeks be any different. You'd be on 160 points by now if thats case....and you're not!
