Wow, a mighty 1, at least i managed to score a point and the big 0 is still yet to be had A 1 is more difficult to score than a 9. You have scored the second most difficult score to get, beside a 10 lol

I promise I won't copy your results to lead me to an easy victory, but if you want to avoid any coincidences post later than usual.

Out of interest, I had a quick look at last years "table" from the same time period: KES …...162 PRK …..160 RIB …151 KARL ….Defending champion….. 144 UTV …. 135 GARY …. 111 and yes, generally we are all worse this season. Morning all. Just checking in on old haunts I think there is a perfectly logical reason for this. This season has seen many upsets. In previous seasons, Man U, Man C and Chelsea were seen as, and generally lived up to their reputation. This season, they have been all over the place, especially in the first few months. Meanwhile, at the 'other end' (in theory), Leicester have been persistently winning. My guess is that many thought "This can't go on" and predicted accordingly - and got it wrong. Poor old UTV, of course, always wants to look on the bright side for the Villa - not a good strategy for winning this league when they are on 16 points (: good luck all, kes

You have scored the second most difficult score to get, beside a 10 lol That's an interesting assertion, Quest. Could you explain why? For a start, one could predict absurd scores for, say, seven games (like 0-10 home defeats) and then three "genuine" attempts - and the chances are, after a week or two, you would get a one. (and a zero too!). But, omitting such an intentional effort, I still feel that it's statistically incorrect. I believe it is more difficult to get a 9 than a 1 ..... but, the more I think about it, the more I am unsure how to prove it. kes

Maybe I wasn't entirely clear. The assumption was our competition here where we are targeting a high number. Under these circumstances it is more difficult to get a 1. Or maybe should I say rarer I have done that calculation three years ago: visitcroatia.proboards.com/post/84457/threadNot sure how much of that I remember. If all teams were equally strong, home and away, it would be equally likely to get a 1 or 9. The same for 0 and 10 and so on. But since they are not, it is more likely to get the higher number.

What should be equally difficult is to get a 1 if you are targeting a 0 and get a 9 if targeting a 10. If my sense of logic didn't desert me.

Oops I forgot the zero. That would be the rarest result to get.
