Competition Rules:
Rule 1. The aim of the competition is to predict where all the teams in League One will be placed after the final league game at the end of the season.
Rule 2. 5 points will be awarded for predicting the exact place, 3 points for one place off and 1 point for two places off.
Rule 3. Entries must be posted before the first game of the season has kicked off.
Rule 4. Final rankings in the case of entries scoring the same number of points will be ranked as follows;
- The total score (number of points);
- The total number of exact places predicted;
- Then by the date/time of entering your predictions (i.e. if your prediction is in first you will be put in front of someone who enters after you). Therefore, the earlier the entry the higher in the table the player will be if there are multiple entries with the same number of points.
Rule 5. By any chance a team does not start or complete the season then a decision will be posted on how predictions for that team will be calculated and this will be posted.
Rule 6. The list of teams is in this thread below.
Just copy, re-order (into your predictions), and then post into this thread.
PLEASE DO NOT CHANGE TEAM NAMES TO NICKNAMES OR ANOTHER FORMAT, INCLUDING PUTTING NUMBERS IN FRONT.
(Entries posted will be directly copied onto a spreadsheet. Therefore, if you change a team name, miss-spell one, or make a double entry you may lose points. If you notice you have made a mistake please notify me as soon as possible so I can correct the mistake. If you do not notify me then I cannot be held responsible for you not scoring the correct points).
