Pre-Chart Update Predictions Game

You may also be looking for the Chart Predictions game which involves predicting the Top 100 Singles chart. Note: The game was originally played on the forum. See here for the old thread.

Introduction[]

Pre-Chart Update Predictions, as the title suggests, is a chart predictions game very similar to the popular Chart Predictions game, except you predict only the top 10 BEFORE the Chart Update top 40 is published on Wednesday at 4:00PM. You can only predict from Sunday 7:00PM until Wednesday 4:00PM. Predictions outside of this range will not count.

If you want to play, you must put your predictions into the week you are predicting as they have previously been laid out.

Scoring[]

A correct prediction is worth 200 points, whereas each position out is 1 off 100. If a predicted song does not chart at all on the top 100, no points are awarded for that song.
