Some of you'll be aware that I have started a new job, for which I'm doing some training for the new job away from home. This coming week, I'll be away from tomorrow for a few days which means I might not be able to update the contest until Thursday (will try and make sure that I update the table heading into the Final tomorrow - along with the maximum scores each entrant can achieve)

I'll try and calculate the scores on the spreadsheet, as soon as I can which you can follow via the link on the original post (thank god its on Google Sheets this time) but just to make you aware that the final result might take a while to come through.

As I'm out tonight. As a result can I ask all entrants to PM me their prediction for the Final if you wish to. My PM box has got plenty of room to receive all of the predictions should everyone wish to do so.


As requested, I PM'd you my prediction.

Here is the table after the Semi-Finals. Included in this table, are 6 points for those who predicted Mark Selby as a World Championship Finalist. Should Selby win the Final then those who have predicted Selby as a Finalist will receive a further 6 points. No entrants predicted Luca Brecel as a Finalist.

This table does not yet include, points awarded for the Highest Break, maker of the Highest Break or the number of Centuries which have been made. - Only one entrant cannot mathematically score any bonuses for the number of centuries as it stands.

Included next to each entrant is the Maximum possible score - with the number of bonuses available this means mathematically (before checking predictions) a number of entrants can win the contest.

Ah yes, the 16 year old Walter Mitty fantasist, the sock account of a previous member banned for racism. Go yan.

Doesn't anyone know anything about this? Someone must know what was said that was racist.

This is how the scoreboard finished up. I'll do more of a complete analysis when I'm able to put the scores in order on Thursday.

Congratulations to the new winner, Happy Camper WC!

Shout-outs too The Cleaver (runner-up and who played their Joker on an 18-15 win for Brecel) and Dan-Cat who finished third.

Many thanks all for taking part.
