New Era Prediction Game 2017-18: Game Over!! See You in a New Thread Next Season
- Thread starter Ron
- Start date
We were almost all fooled by the Kings' recent good results and llulled into a W-prediction...
With our 2 most frequent L-predictors missing-in-action (97.1% of @chief bromden's predictions, and 85.5% of @eMBarkat10n's, were L-predictions)...
The 3rd one in line - @Capt. Factorial (76% Ls) was scarily accurate tonight! He nailed the Mavs' score and only missed Kings' score (and hence, the margin too) by a single point! A staggering 85!
The rest of us all struggled, with @Ron (12) and @CVKingsfan (11) being the least awful...
@BeerNerd916 held a winner prediction, worth 70 points, early on... only to replace it by a miserable 6pt-worth W-prediction about 1 hour to tip-off...
Daily
Only the 4th daily win for @Capt. Factorial this season.
Season Leaderboard
@Capt. Factorial came very close to cupturing the 2nd place, but eventually there where no changes in ranking.
@New Era let the pesty "FlatLiner" take the lead once more...

Hi there!
For the 4th time this year, our combined mind accurately predicted (on average)
the exact actual margin (-3) ...
(Previous times this has happened: games #11, #53 and #64)
And mind you - that's not a common thing...
Actually, Our group-think was already off by as much as 49 points
in predicting the margin this season...
Here's the table and chart of how our average predicted point margin
related to the actual point margin, in each and every game this season:
We had a nice accurate prediction stretch back in games 62 to 64 (and even until 66).
We had our worst patches in games 12-15 and 33-37.

Most of us (8 of 12) predicted the L,
and most of those who predicted the L (7) scored in the 50s or 60s.
The King of the night was @CVKingsfan, with 66,
followed by @BeerNerd916 (62)
and @Capt. Factorial (61)
@origkds (nailed Pacers score) and @VF21 were both close to the actual game score,
and scored quite high (for a losing W prediction): 18 and 16, respectively.

That was daily win number 9 for @CVKingsfan

One game to go in March!
The race is still far from decided!
@LoungeLizard, @CVKingsfan and @Capt. Factorial are all strong candidates for the March King throne.
What IS decided, and is a real blessing, is that March
will be the first month this prediction season which
will NOT have that wretched "FlatLiner" ranking
in the top 3 places of the monthly leader-board...
