On behalf of the Office of the Commissioner, I am pleased to announce the inaugural PBL Prediction Contest!Enter to win Paramount Credits! Demonstrate your prognostication skills and earn even more! OBJECTIVE: For each team in each division, predict the exact order of placement in the final regular season standings. SCORING: For each correct prediction, a GM will be credited with one point. The GM who accumulates the greatest number of points will be declared the winner. NOTE: Ties will be broken according to the order in which teams are listed on the PBL standings page. REWARDS:- 1st Place = 50 Paramount Credits (PCs)
- 2nd Place = 25 PCs
- 3rd Place = 20 PCs
- 4th Place = 15 PCs
- Other GMs Who Participated = 10 PCs
TO ENTER: - DEADLINE -- Wednesday, April 3, prior to the first pitch of Opening Day of the 2050 season.
- Prepare a list of predictions, by division, of the order of finish at the end of the regular season - 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th. Completed ballots will include predictions for the AL (East, Central, West, South) and the NL (East, Central, West, South).
- Via the PBL message board, submit the predictions to Tim Ackley (Tim_GiantsGM) via a private DM where they will be retained and referenced as necessary to ensure accuracy.
ACCOUNTING and REPORTING:
- I will create a spreadsheet that includes the predictions submitted by each GM.
- I will post an image of the completed spreadsheet for all to review.
- Periodically during the season, I will post partial-season results.
- At season's end, I will post the final results and announce the winners.
Join in the fun! You can't earn Paramount Credits if you don't play. Enter before Wednesday evening!

Thanks for the entry. Everyone, please send a private DM to me. That will avoid this thread from becoming cluttered. The above entry most likely only has one correct: the Giants finishing 4th. So, don't copy John!
