Lab 38.5% Con 36.3% LD 6.6% Grn 4.1% Reclaim 2.9% Binface 2.7% ORMLP 1.4% SDP 1.26% UKIP 1.18% Rejoin EU 1.01% Climate 0.86% CPA 0.75% Let London Live 0.54% Ind (Bell) 0.51% Ind (Anti-Ulez) 0.50% Ind (No Ulez) 0.44% Ind (77 Joseph) 0.01%
Let's be honest, three of the four independents are standing on the same platform (Ulez). Would have been better to have had one and rally behind them. As for 77 Joseph...a weirdo (I read the thread and his website....yes he's familiar).

November_Rain the competition asks for predictions to 1 decimal place, with rounding this prediction adds up to 99.6%, you may wish to adjust it. (The original only added up to 99.56%.)

Surely you are acting as Nanny State to a thick elector who cannot read or cannot be bothered to comply? Let him endure the penalties.

There's no actual prize involved, if there were I'd run it differently.

There's no actual prize involved, if there were I'd run it differently. It was a throw-away remark alluding back to the Nanny State argument in other threads. Not serious. But I am truly amazed at the widespread inability by members to fail to add up to 100.

I haven't studied the rules of prediction competitions fully but I would have thought that anyone submitting an entry that didn't add up to 100% is only handicapping themselves anyway.

You might want to check your figures as I think that adds up to 100.1% if both Darwood and Phaure are predicted at 0.1.
It adds up to 100 if Darwood is 0%.
Please clarify.

It caught me out a first too, but one line of his post has 2 candidates on it but only only 1 value predicted.

I assumed it was one line per candidate and a mistype. But if it is two candidates with one having no value expressed, because there IS no value expressed. So it is accurate.
