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!

Quote:
Unlike traditional grills which cook food from a single, direct heat source, the Pit Barrel® Cooker’s cylindrical shape and “Hook-and-Hang” method places the food in the center of the action, heating the meat from all sides at once, producing consistently great-tasting, perfectly cooked meat every time.

Also have some popcorn.

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?

You didn't read the examples:

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)

I'm not sure how much clearer I can be that only predictions based on the progression of angles count here. That said.

If correct the Roddy prediction will be 5. Zack will be 3. Your inner-death will not count for points.

Unsure. I think we shouldn't limit the #. That said, if you predict "Rock will wrestle and lose to Yoshi" you can't then predict that "Rock will wrestle and win against Yoshi."

What do you think?

1 actually. Since you made a specific prediction, if Brock Lesnar F5s anyone other than a shark you get 1 point.

Well, what if I make one perfect five point prediction, but some other dickhead makes 50 little bullshit one point predictions?

I would have categories. For instance:

MATCH PREDICTION: Jack Swagger v. Santino Marella
SEGMENT PREDICTION: John Cena will call out Brock Lesnar

Or something like that. Then you could still score them the same way you were talking about, but it keeps everything streamlined.

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.

Hopefully not. I think that we have a system that can evolve as needed though.

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.

We'll need referees for that. I don't often watch full-episodes or go to the WWE website.

"Snaps" is subjective? If Cena turns heel, then I think it's pretty easy to see if he's "snapped" or not. Still, let's come to these issues when we come to them. Since I'm running this, my judgment will have to come into play during these arguments. I'm open to suggestions, however though my word is final on all decisions.
