Raw/Smackdown Prediction Game: Round 1
I'd like to play a game if you're up for it. Here are the ground rules.
Each prediction must be based upon happenings from the previous week's WWE Television or semi-credible internet rumors. 1) Brock F5'd Cena last week. This week Cena's going to snap and cripple Daniel Bryan (becoming the ultimate no-nonsense badass submission machine) 2) Ryan Clark reports that Billy Gunn was recently rehired by the WWE. This week he's going to debut as an unstoppable monster with Teddy Long as his manager. So basically it's a "where do they go with this" thread with a point system. 5 points for getting it completely right (ie. Brock's going to debut and F5 Cena would have been worth 5 points) 3 points for partial (ie. Brock's going to debut at Raw after Wrestlemania) 1 point for predictions that come true but with other wrestlers (Think A-Train's going to debut and attack Cena on Raw) No sign-up, each thread will be it's own contest. At the end of the year the person with the most wins will get a thread devoted to their genius by me. *Ties will be counted as wins for all involved. In case of ties at the end of the "season" we'll hash it out in the chat-room via obscure wrestling trivia games. Update 8APRIL2012 PREDICTION CATEGORIES: MATCH PREDICTION: Jack Swagger v. Santino Marella (WINNER by DQ) SEGMENT PREDICTION: John Cena will call out Brock Lesnar MISCELLANEOUS: Michael Cole and Zack Ryder will have a freestyle battle It's time to make TPWW MEAT again!

Is this for Raw only or could SmackDown count too? Just wondering as tonight there's a live SmackDown and I have a prediction in mind.

So if I predicted "Brock Lesnar will debut" I'd get 5 points.
If I predicted "Brock Lesnar will debut and attack The Rock" I'd get 3 points. Why wouldn't I just be as vague as possible? |

I like this concept, but I think we could tighten it up a bit. How many predictions should each person make?

I'm not sure how much clearer I can be that only predictions based on the progression of angles count here. That said.
1 point. Quote:
I've underlined the predictions that don't count for points. |

So, if Brock Lesnar does F5 somebody, I will get 3 points for my "Brock Lesnar F5s a shark" prediction?

That's ok. Fairly confident that he will F5 a shark.

I would have categories. For instance: MATCH PREDICTION: Jack Swagger v. Santino Marella SEGMENT PREDICTION: John Cena will call out Brock Lesnar MISCELLANEOUS: Michael Cole and Zack Ryder will have a freestyle battle Or something like that. Then you could still score them the same way you were talking about, but it keeps everything streamlined. |

Seems like there's gonna be a shitload of subjectivity with this was all I was saying. Especially with the "Partially right" and "Completely right".

You could do more/different categories, but those were the first things that popped into my head.

Vague predictions might be "safe", but this game is primarily about predicting the future of the WWE. Getting something like Lesnar hitting the F5 on Cena is going to be the exception rather than the rule, but people guessing things like Lesnar debuts on Raw are often wrong in the first place. Things people think of as safe bets might earn them 1 or even 0 points. Let's say you go for the big prediction: Cena snaps and starts on a rampage hitting AAs on everybody he sees throughout the episode. And Cena just gets on the mic and snaps. That's three points. However, if he actually goes on a rampage that's 5 points. You lose very little for guessing angle progression. And if it's CM Punk who snaps and starts hitting GTS on everyone, well you get one point. |

You shouldn't be able to predict things that have already been announced, either.

"snaps" on the mic could be subjective. Also, what if Punk hits a GTS on like... 2 random people? You're gonna have disagreements. That's just with the example you set though. It could get much more cloudy with some things.
AT's category thing seems like it leaves less open to interpretation though. |

SEGMENT PREDICTION: John Cena wants to know what's up with Brock Lesnay F5ing him. MISCELLANEOUS: Daniel Bryan will be inserted into the World Heavyweight Title program between Sheamus and Alberto Del Rio. Pretty much the same as Vito's. Is that allowed? |
