Hey everyone, As a hobby project i've been working on a site where you can predict the final league table for different football leagues.
Now i've finally done it so its working with league two as well. Anyone up for trying it out and see how its working? Its free, obviously, and no ads or whatever. Only takes a minute or so to place a bet, you just drag and drop each team to the position you think they end up at. Then you get 1 error for each position you are off. Least amount of errors is the winner.
Errors and standings updates after each game. And there is statistics for how other people has betted, with an average table where each team is giving an average position based on all bets.
Not interested in this being some spam-ad thingy so i'm just checking if people would be interested before giving our the URL!

There are worse things you could be doing with your time son, I know I have done most of them. Sounds like a bit of interesting fun.

It seems there's some interest, so i've created a competition for us! Link to place a bet: https://betlings.com/competitions/the-fishyThen just click the button "Bet in this competition". You'll then have to register an account and then you'll end up at the betform. The registration is just to make sure we can keep track of your score. No verification etc needed. Password to place the bet after all team has been dragged: blundell (note, do not mix this up with the one you enter at the register page.. that is your private password) I'll leave it open for new bets till 1/1 13:00, before the Mansfield game. Up until then you wont be able to see other people's bets. After 1/1 13:00, by using the above link you will be able to follow the standings etc, updated after each game. It's gonna look like this, with statistics etc (this is taken from an ongoing Serie A competition): https://betlings.com/competitions/curva-scireaI'll however make sure to post some regularly updates on here as well, to keep it interesting throughout the season. You can also choose to receive push notifications after every 5th round if you want to (and if your browser has support for it). There should be a popup question after placing the bet, letting you select that. Hit me if you got any questions or something doesn't work as expected. I'm not a designer so the ugliness is something to live with

A bit later than expected but this has now kicked off. There were no more bets registered after my last update so final number is 7. Easier to win! Some key points from our bets: Lincoln is the favourite to win @ 1.9 average position among all bets. Followed by Milton K's @ 2.4 average position. Grimsby has an average position of 10.4, meaning up 3 positions from today. And thats including theburge68's bet that has us @ 24th pos. Crawley is another team thats expected to change 3 positions from their current, however they are going down, rather than up (to 20th from 17th). Yea well, not very interesting statistics with so few participants. All bets, and the standings, can be found here: https://betlings.com/competitions/the-fishyIts updated after every game. And considering we're only 7, there wont be any need for updating this thread. If you guys enjoy it we can do something similar next season.

I thought we were predicting final positions at not after each match!

You are right! But you can see the current standings after each game. However, its only the final position that really "matters".
