TIPs Chart Singles Prediction Game

 

:cheer: :yahoo: :dance: :cheer:

WEEK 40 in 2007!!!

 

Each week I will ask you to predict where 14 (mainly new) singles are going to be in the following Sunday's chart.

 

If it is a quiet week I will ask you to predict some records that are already in the chart rather than ask you to predict some single that you have never heard of & which will probably fail to make the Top75.

 

The point scoring will be as before (10 pts if spot on with your prediction down to 1 pt if you are 9 positions out. A 75+ prediction if correct will still be worth 5 Points).

 

If a single is pulled from release or non-chart eligible then everyone's prediction for that question will be void and everyone will be awarded 5 points. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IN THIS THREAD IF ONE OF THE SINGLES I ASK YOU TO PREDICT IS PULLED SO I CAN SCORE ACCORDINGLY

 

I will ask three bonus questions which require a Yes or No answer. Each bonus question is worth 20 Pts.

 

Therefore each week there will be a maximum of 200 Points to gain.

Bonus #2: Will Fergie - Big Girls Don't Cry still be in the Top20?

Bonus #3: Will Newton Faulkner - Dream Catch Me still be in the Top40?

 

SLIGHT CHANGE: You have up until 09:00 UK Time on Tuesday 2nd September to get your entries in (I'll be keeping the thread open), but any entries altered after that time will be excluded. :lol:

 

Each Game counts towards the Overall & Average Score Leaderboards at the end of the year.

 

However from this week onwards I'll be running a Cup competition to spice things up, whereby there will be a Points qualifying system before getting to the knockout stages.

 

Chart Singles Prediction Cup Game

 

Stage One

For the next 6 weeks (Games 36 - 41) there will be points awarded for where the player finish in that week's Game:

 

The points will be as follows:

1st = 100 Pts

2nd 80 Pts

3rd 70 Pts

4th 60 Pts

5th 50 Pts

6th 45 Pts

7th 40 Pts

8th 35 Pts

9th 30 Pts

10th 25 Pts

11th 20 Pts

12th 18 Pts

13th 16 Pts

14th 14 Pts

15th 12 Pts

16th 10 Pts

.....

down to 25th 1 Point

 

(Any ties in points from the prediction Game will lead to the points gained from the finishing position being shared amongst those players. i.e. 2 plays tie in 2nd place, hence (80+70)/2 = 75 Pts each).

 

 

At the end of this 6 week period, the positions of this Cup Leaderboard will be totalled up so that the remaining players go into the knockout stages in a Seeded position based on where they finish (ie. like Tennis competitions the 1st & 2nd seeds will be kept in the separate halves of the draw, so if things go to plan the favourite will meet 2nd seed in the final, after the 1st seed had beaten the 4th seed & the 2nd seed had beaten the 3rd seed in the Semi Finals,

 

Stage 2 - The Final 32 Knockout stage:

Therefore over the following 5 Weeks (Weeks 42 - 46) then 1st v 32nd qualifier, 2nd v 31st qualifier, through to .... 16th v 17th, with the winner of 1st v 32nd taking on the winner 16th v 17th in the Last 16 Round Finals, etc in sudden death weekly knock out rounds (Last 32, Last 16, Quater Finals, Semi Finals & Final).

 

(If during any of the knockout rounds neither competitor plays, then the highest scoring loser will make the next round; If there are any ties, then the person who posts their complete predictions (ie. if you edit your post then that will be the time that counts) earliest will win that round)

 

If you have never played before, then here is a great opportunity to join in the fun! :cheer:
