X Factor Prediction League 2016

ibarelycare

It's everyone's favourite part of the X Factor - the Prediction League

Will dark crystal become the winner for the third year running? Let's hope not :pac:

There are two different ways to score points in the league, (which I will explain in the next two posts to keep it as clear as possible):

1. Overall winner - 10 bonus points (predictions can only be made up until 8pm this Saturday, 8th October)

2. Weekly bottom 2/3, and eliminated - up to 12 points available (predictions to be made every week before start of Saturday night show)


The scores will be tallied and updated on a spreadsheet (which will be viewable to all) as soon as possible after the Sunday show.

Anyone's welcome to join the league at any stage (although bear in mind, the overall winner prediction can only be made this week!)

1. Overall winner

A bonus 10 points if you can predict the overall winner of X Factor 2016. Anyone who makes this prediction will hold onto their 10 points until their predicted contestant is eliminated.

This prediction can only be made this week, up until the start of this Saturday's first live show (8th October, 8pm)


The final 12 are:


Boys:

• Matt Terry
• Ryan Lawrie
• Freddy Parker

Girls:

• Emily Middlemas
• Gifty Louise
• Samantha Lavery

Overs:

• Honey G
• Relley C
• Saara Aalto

Groups:

• 5 After Midnight
• Bratavio
• Brooks Way

2. Weekly Predictions

Predictions MUST be posted before the first performer on the Saturday night show. Any predictions posted after that time will not be counted.

Your predictions every week should look like this:

In case of a single elimination
Bottom 2 - Act x and act y.
Eliminated - Act y.

In case of a double elimination
Bottom 3- act x, act y and act z
Eliminated - Act x and act y


You should always include a prediction for double elimination even if not announced before the show - just in case!

********************************************************

Points will be awarded as follows:


In case of a single elimination
Single Bottom 2 act correct -3 points
Both both two acts correct - 6
Correct act eliminated - 6

In case of a double elimination
Single Bottom 3 act correct -2 points
Two Bottom 3 acts correct - 4 points
All bottom 3 acts correct - 6 points
Eliminated act correct - 6 points

So the maximum points awarded each week will be 12.

In the case of twists in any week, I will review the formula, provided we are given notice prior to the live show.

I see Matt Terry is favourite to win so I put him as overall winner as tbh not taken much interest this year and no one stands out to me so far to be behind

Struggling to get any motivation for this
It has to be the worst line up ever and I'm struggling to remember some of them

but just for interest

Overall winner : Samantha Lavery

Single Elimination:
Bottom Two: Bratavio and Relley C
Eliminated: Reeley C

Double Elimination:
Bottom Three: Bratavio, Saara Alto, Relley C
Eliminated: Bratavio and Relley C

dark crystal

Not a stellar line up this year, it has to be said, but Louis Tomlinson-alike Matt Terry seems the best of a bad bunch this series, so he's my overall winner prediction. Emily Middlemass and 5AM may give him some stiff competition, but it's a boy's turn to win this year, imo.

Thanks IBC. How will voting work this week with their (sh*te) app bottom 3 thing?

It'd be a little more complicated as it would be like this:

-Predict bottom 3
-Predict who'll be saved
-Predict who will go home

So maybe we'll have to increase the points? Or we could just leave it as is and stay with the bottom two, I'm not sure. Anyone have any ideas?

kitten_k

I would recommend leaving it as it is. It would get very complicated re double evictions.

I would agree with Kitten, leave it as is. It could get very complicated. So ignore the 3rd person who gets saved and just use the actual bottom 2 for single eliminations

I guess we'll all be in the same boat then, so it would just mean we all lose the extra 10 points.

This week's results!


While no one scored 12 points this week, there were a few who scored 9 points by predicting Freddie's departure. Meauldsegosha has taken the pole position this week, while last week's leader kitten_k has fallen to 4th position after scoring nul points.

Everyone's still holding onto their 10 points for overall winner
