Re: BBC Premier League Football Predictor
Works alright for me Tim, both 'proper' and Scottish from the links at the top of the page.

Hi
OK for me as well. Just wish I had remembered a bit more often to actually make predictions!

Re: BBC Premier League Football Predictor
Hi both
Thanks for the feedback.
Can you see if the team member "UK BOINC Team" is still listed...as that was my "non-de-plume" and I can't log into my account - it seems it isn't valid anymore
I think I was in 1st place on the Scottish League and about 3rd place on the Premier League.

Tim

Re: BBC Premier League Football Predictor
Hi Mark
Thanks for that. I still can't log in to my BBC account, so I can't make any predictions for the last game of the PL season - so I hopefully will still stay 3rd and 1st in Scottish League

I know the Scottish game is not as "renowned" as other Leagues in Europe, with many comparing it to perhaps an English Championship or League One equivalent...but surely no need to compare with a Sunday league !!Scottish Sunday football league:

Yup - me too...
I might just have to re-register, and for this season, I'll use my UBT username - I used the "UK BOINC Team" name before, as I thought I was setting up a Team league, when in fact I was setting up a user account.
Yup - for some reason, for the 16/17 season, we seemed to have "picked up" a few usernames that I didn't recognise...which is fine as it makes it a bit more challengingUBT-Mikee wrote:HI

As long as the BBC make it easy to switch from one Predictor page to the other (ie English to Scottish and back again) then this could be good...although I'd much rather prefer if it was all on the one page...UBT-mark3346 wrote:Scottish Premiership starts this Saturday
But then the Beeb website is such a pain to navigate when you find an article and want to come back it and find it's not easy to search for the article.

Re: BBC Premier League Football Predictor
From the index page I right click "open in new tab" for both of them because the navigation is so poor.
The username from my deleted account is still there along with my new Boinc one.

Re: BBC Premier League Football Predictor
Hi all
It also looks like the Beeb have removed the link for the Euro Championship league and have now put the English and Scottish Predictor links on the same page here:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/predictor
Why they didn't do this last season, one can only guess...as it was difficult trying to navigate to the correct "league" to make the predictions....plus they would move the links around on each page, sometimes putting them at the top of the page and other times the bottom - or even simply omitting them
And after the 1st Week of the Scottish Premier League, I got 30 points - but they haven't updated the table yet

Same here...I wonder if these will "drop out" in due course?UBT-mark3346 wrote:The username from my deleted account is still there along with my new Boinc one.

Re: BBC Premier League Football Predictor
Hi all
The footie season is now over and for those who played the BBC Predictor game, the final standings are now "in".
Premier League
In the UBT PL table, I ended on a high with 160 points on the final weekend, leading to a total of 2790 points and 7th place.
The participants who actually scored points were:
(score shown is the member points earned on the final games of the season).
For the overall Premier League, I finished in 14,299th place, out of 465,223 - so, I finished in the Top 3%
SPL
For the Scottish Premiership, I am thus far in 1st place in the UBT League, with 1590 points, as their "season" hasn't finished yet as the 2nd leg of the play-off final is still to be played on 20th May.
Only 11 players actually scored any points, so it clearly shows that there isn't much interest in the SPL !!
And, overall, I'm in 2093 place out of 63445, so that's well within the Top 1% Hopefully my last prediction might allow me to jump up some places !!
So, well done to Mikee and Woodles - for their contributions - I'm not sure who "Boinc1" is - it could well be "mark3346", but I'm not sure - so I'll have to see if anyone claims that moniker !!
PS: I've just seen that the Predictor page will be "wiped" as of 23rd May 2018 - no doubt as they'll be running a World Cup Predictor "game", like they did for the last Euros...and no doubt for the 2018/2019 season, they'll just reset all the tables and keep the usernames "attached".

Excellent and well done for a very good 2nd place in the SPL table.
And 16th in the PL table isn't a bad score either
Also: Looking at how well he did, Lawro's result after 38 "sets" of games was:
Code: Select all
Total scores after week 38
Lawro 3,410
Guests 2,820
https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/44157390
and the Top 10 in the PL was:
Code: Select all
Posn Name Current round Overall score
1 Green team 100 3750
2 Kev2608 60 3740
3 ddzim 90 3690
4 HSHARRIES 90 3680
5= john kearney 50 3640
5= Vasko 70 3640
7 JC20 90 3630
8 Topping 90 3620
9= Lucky Duckie 130 3610
9= macsolo69 100 3610
(Predictor scores 40 points for an EXACT score or 10 points for guessing the result of the game (ie win, lose or draw) )

Re: BBC Premier League Football Predictor
Thank you for playing the BBC Football Predictor. We hope you enjoyed it! Unfortunately, the Predictor will not be returning to the site for future football seasons.
