Weekly Prediction League?

Quote: Bent&Bongser "Well this is embarrassing. Wanderer did indeed last week hunt down one of the “holy grails” with a Pokemon prediction. Bongser had already, in the smoke and mirrored light of his failure to spot that, revised the scoring system on the o/p but is reasonably sure that that bonus was, for the first four rounds, five points. This, had it been correctly awarded, should have made our guest from South Yorkshire the winner of the round.

This puts Bongser in a quandary. The problem is that he doesn’t want to do a Wogan (Sir Tel, for those that recall, once announced the wrong winner on “A Song for Europe,” the delighted “winners” then had their prescious babe snatched from the breast, as he did an immediate U-turn and announced the correct winners). So Bongser’s fudged solution is:

a) Atomic stays on the points previously awarded.

b) Wanderer (in addition to those previously posted) gets the two points that he should have had for correctly predicting Fax to prevail over Hornets, plus the Pokemon bonus, plus a weekly winner bonus and....

c) The Pokemon bonus applied will be the one under the new scoring system.

Let’s see what effect that has on The Swingometer:

Well we see Wanderer with an extra 47 points and a running total of 71, joint second with Atomic, and with Bongser continuing his predictable downward spiral by losing yet another seat.

Your humble(d) host hopes that this will appease all parties concerned. If not, dissenters are politely referred to the third sentence of the pen-penultimate paragraph of the o/p.

Charlie, time to shift your aris off those squashed laurels as, as it turns out, last week was The March of the Mods!! Bongser, a wise man once said if the winds from the East ,lean to the West,or was it don't buy a Clown a woolly jumper.
