Posted May 20, 201213 yr Ben's UK Singles Top 10 Prediction Game Round 21 Welcome back in 2012! The game is simple: you have to predict next weeks top 10. If YOU are the closest to the real top 10 you will gain the maximum points! The scoring: The number of places you are away from the real chart positions is all added up, and the players are ranked, so the person with the least number of points is 1st, and then 2nd etc. The scores: The first receives 40, the second 39, the third 38 ... until the 40th player, who gets 1 point. If there are more players, they can't get any points (only bonus points). If there are ties the points for first and second etc. will be shared (pts for 1st place + pts for 2nd place / 2; depending on how many players are tied). Bonus round: every 5th round is a bonus round, where you can get double points but you have to predict the singles top 15! if You're the closest you earn 80 points, the second 78, the third 76 ... the 40th (last) gets 2 points. - You can get extra points if you answer 3 bonus questions. The first question is always the most difficult, therefore if you answer correctly you can get 5 extra more points. For the second correct answer you can get 3 more extra points and for the third 2 more extra points so a total of 10 more extra points! - In the bonus rounds (every 5th round) you have to answer 6 questions to earn more points!!! - You must give the correct name of the artist and at least the beginning of the title of the song. For example: 5. Taio Cruz feat. Flo Rida - Hangover 5. Taio & Flo - Hangover 5. Taio - H.over etc. - If your vote contain two songs for the same place or a place is missing, the vote won't be valid! - If a song in your prediction will be cancelled or miss the whole top 75 it will count as it'll be # 76. - Therefore: You can predict an eleventh song (in the bonus rounds a 16th) if you're not sure one of the predicted songs are chart eligible or will be released that week. If that song gets cancelled or is disqualified (NCQ) the eleventh (16th) song will count. (But only in this case!) (Like Oasis - Falling Down) Please be clear in what position that song should be! (Any questions about the rules, contact me!) +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Please predict the UK singles top 10 for Sunday 27th May 2012! 01. 02. 03. 04. 05. 06. 07. 08. 09. 10. Bonus questions: 1. (for 5 pts) Which song will be #20 next week? (Artist name and song title needed!) 2. (for 3 pts) How many new/re/chart entries will be altogether in the top 40 next week? 3. (for 2 pts) Which album will be higher next week: Far East Movement – Dirty Bass or fun. – Some Nights? ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ You have always time to predict or to edit your prediction until Tuesday morning.
