Here we go fact fans, the closer we get to the end of the season, the more accurate the projection. Importantly we have played 4 more harder games (top half) than Easier games (bottom half) so bucket loads of points to come in the coming weeks.
Vs top half 13 points in 16 games, 0.81 points per game (projection 19.50) Vs bottom half 16 points in 12 games, 1.33 points per game (projection 29.33) Total projection 48.83
Again, I repeat, we have Easier games to come.

Did you only just realise this, and are you going to continue with your 'predictions' right up to the eve of game 46?

A) I’ve always known this, it’s obvious, read this thread and you’ll see those struggling to grasp this. B) Yes, I’ll do it all season, hopefully the slower member of this board will then understand and apologise, all ready for next season.

I love this thread. 💖❤
Here's a stat, if we win the next 8 games, we're safe by 3rd March. But by then we'll be targetting the playoffs.

It was, I’ve actually wet myself. Not sure if it was the post or my incontinence?

I retract my statement. People are interested but only from the perspective of how someone can make a complete tit of themselves.
Over the last month or so the "projections" have gone from 68 pts, to 44, to 31 to 48. Points against "Top" teams have ranged from zero to 20 odd.
And yet still the author cannot see how valueless these are.
Well, keep going C78. You've got 18 more goes left to guess the right points total. Although don't tell me, your guess will get more accurate at the season goes on. No $hit batman

a) Oh you do think it's obvious? So I don't need to explain the jigsaw analogy then. b)Good. I like to see a child finish a task.

I think finally the penny has dropped, well done on catching up. You still need to learn the difference between a projection a prediction and a guess though, but this is probably a little above your limitations.

Projection. Synonyms 'estimate, forecast, PREDICTION, calculation...' Do you know what a synonym is C78?

I predict that it will be warmer in summer than it will be in winter. There will be odd occasions that summer days are colder than winter days and vice versa but at the end of the year the average winter temperature will be colder than summer

Whatever my limitations, they're certainly not where you suggest. I have fully understood your process right from the start - I've merely challenged it's limitations, flaws and lack of overall value and tbf have never really received any proper response to the questions I've asked. I'm not sure whether this is down to lack of will or ability. Ultimately it doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things, so time to just let go I think. Personally, I don't have the need to feel superior in the same way as you do but if I did, I'd take comfort from the FACT that an overwhelming majority of posters have similar issues, not just with your theory (which to be honest has become a bit of a side issue) but with your "I'm better / more clever than you" attitude which is really off tack considering if a straw poll was taken, opinion would probably place the intelligence presented in your posts well in the bottom segment of the lower quartile. Anyway, the only real conclusion I've drawn from this thread is that you're not really the type of person I'd wish to spend any time with. I admit I possess some of your stubbornness (I must do to keep posting) but I hope without without your air of superiority. I'd like to think that an intelligent and reasoned debater could and would sway me. Sadly, you are not that person. You never offer any real debate - just your superior air. Of course, you could just be one of those people that likes to try and wind other people up which if true is very sad. There really is no more that I can say, or need to say to you. Good luck with your guesswork.

Let me try and make this even clearer for you. Your projections are based around your higher/lower 'system'. Average points against top twelve, average points against lower twelve, ergo you reach your projection. So when you then conclude that because we have lots of games against easier teams and that therefore we'll pick up bucket loads more points, you are dismissing your own projection as worthless. Fool.

Correct. The Projection is 48 points My prediction is 55 points (pre season was 60pts)
