UK TOP 10 PREDICTA GAME – Sunday 2nd April

Thanks to the 22 of you who played this week.

Within the Top10 Singles a lot of us have dropped points through predicting new entries from Andy Abrahams (#63, so counts at #41), Prince (#43, so counts as #41) and the Editors (#21) & not predicting Gnarls Barkley (30pts 3x10), Kooks (15pts 3x5), Embrace (14pts 2x7) & Black Eyed Peas (8 pts 2x4).

While in the UK Top10 Albums – points have been dropped through predicting in the Top10 – David Essex (#23); Prince (#22), Vittorio Grigolo (#17), KT Tunstall (#16) & Beverley Knight (#12) and by failing to predict inside the Top10 Yeah Yeah Yeahs (12pts 3x4), Jack Johnson (10pts 2x5) and nobody predicted the Kooks (4pts 2x2).

THESE ARE THE FINAL RESULTS – I have added #1 Single & Album sales BONUS POINTS to the scores:

Gnarls Barkley #1 single sold 31,703.
Nearest prediction is Maximo Mark 31,000 = 15 Bonus Pts
2nd nearest is JDL 30,643 = 10 Bonus Pts
