ALL NEW UK Top 40 Prediction League - WEEK TWO

Message Bookmarked
Bookmark Removed
Rules are: I select a number of singles released on Monday (always at least ten, sometimes more), and you predict where they end up in the chart next Sunday. Points are scored as follows:

Correct position - 10 pts.
Getting position wrong by one either way - 5 pts
Getting position wrong by two either way - 1 pt
Correctly picking the number one record - 10 pts

There are also ten bonus points for picking the record at a certain randomly selected position in the chart, which changes each week.

The deadline for predictions is now mid-day on Tuesday.

All are welcome.

Current Standings:

Alex 40
Me 35
Joni 31
Neil FC 31
Dom 30
Siegbran 30
Fishman 25
Jel 25
Stevem 25
Tom May 22
Ed 16
Scott James 12
Flowersdie 11
Ian 6
Lid 2

And next week's picks:

TRAVIS - Re-Offender
S CLUB 8 - Sundown
MILK & SUGAR - Let The Sunshine In
DEXYS MIDNIGHT RUNNERS - Manhood (apparently it IS out this week)
LONGVIEW - Can't Explain
AMY STUDT - Under The Thumb
MORJAC ft. RAZ CONWAY - Stars
THE ATARIS - Boys Of Summer
POLOROID - So Damn Beautiful
DMX - Where Da Hood At?

Random Number: #4

TRAVIS - Re-Offender

I can't even make a snarky comment about that title, for fuck's sake! They've preempted everybody!

Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 29 September 2003 05:11 (twenty-two years ago)

Also - it'd be appreciated if people didn't pick outside the top 75, cos I can't check that, and it may be the case that some singles haven't actually been released this week (i.e. the schedule has it wrong), so awarding points for them would be a bit crook.

William Bloody Swygart (mrswygart), Monday, 29 September 2003 05:14 (twenty-two years ago)

Ach - knew I'd forgotten one - please also predict:

HOPE OF THE STATES - Enemies/Friends

Need to think a little more, but fuck me if Sundown isn't the best S Club single of any kind ever. It seems like I've been playing the Mp3 of it for months and I'm yet to tire of it...

Right, so I'm in brum, several miles away from the spreadsheet... erm...

Anyway - Morjac & Raz Conway entered at #38

William Bloody Swygart (mrswygart), Sunday, 5 October 2003 14:55 (twenty-two years ago)

And here's Turin Brakes at #31. Not in the picks, obviously. That would be far too easy.

William Bloody Swygart (mrswygart), Sunday, 5 October 2003 15:07 (twenty-two years ago)

Poloroid are number twenty-seven. I think.

William Bloody Swygart (mrswygart), Sunday, 5 October 2003 15:17 (twenty-two years ago)

So obviously they were actually #28...
