I am a log time lurker on GG (and 32 years a spurs fan). I used to post a bit - the most recent name was White Heart but someone stole that after a server move a while back and I have not got back involved since. Anyway I love the site and it keeps me connected with Spurs while I am far away in Vancouver Canada.

I have been building a results prediction website in my spare time for the last while and want to get some fresh eyes on it. The idea is that each round you predict the winner of each game and at the end of the round you get your percentage of correctness (or as I call is Guru percent).

You can check it out here.

You do not need to play for a full season, each round is a competition in itself. If you enter at least three rounds then you get on to the seasonal leaderboard - so plenty of time left this season. Also time to get your predictions in for this weeks games.

I am going to introduce mini-leagues soon - where groups of friends, families - or forumers, can compete against each other.

That is where I would like your help. I would love to get as many GG'ers involved in a mini league from now until the end of the season. In return for your participation and feedback I will happily put up a prize of some sort, just for the best GG Member. (Prize value depending on how many play!)

If you have any comments or want more information please PM me or email me directly on gurusofsport@gmail.com

Many thanks and good luck playing,
Patrick.

ps. This post have been tentatively pre-approved by Crawley & Co so hopefully I am staying within the rules.
 
Hi all, thanks for all those who have registered so far - and anyone who has not there is still time before today's games kick off.

Ruel Fox - this is currently a hobby but as I am between jobs I am putting a bit of time into it. I would love it to be a full time job and to extend it to all North american sports, Champions League, Europa, La Liga, Bundesliga - but time will be the issue.

Good luck all and thanks for playing
 
Hats off to AuroRaman for a great 70% in a very tough round. Special mention to Hotspurs13 on 10%, surely that is harder that getting the games right!


AuroRaman 70% (Bonus Points: 793)
diego_maradona 50% (Bonus Points: 793)
socks 30% (Bonus Points: 724)
accountancyboy 30% (Bonus Points: 678)
rhu87 30% (Bonus Points: 609)
Hotspurs13 10% (Bonus Points: 678)


Thanks to those who played this week. Hopefully we can get some more people playing this weekend (http://www.gurusofsport.com/GameCentral/default.aspx?round=1247). Remember you only need to take part for 3 weeks to be in for a chance to win the season, and even playing for one round can get you serious bragging rights. We are still awaiting our first 100% Guru for two seasons now,

I am hoping to put up a prize for the GG league - any ideas what would motivate you guys the best (within reason please!)
 
@Crawley - well you have the power to offer that. Might be a risky prize knowing some of the guys on here?
@ThePortugeezer - might need to be charging quite the entry fee to make that a reality!!
 
Okay folks, time to get your predictions in for this weekend. It literally takes 5 minutes to register and enter. It will really help me out and give you guys some bragging rights on here.

By the way, please post here what name you sign up with so I can keep track of the gg entries.

Good luck and thanks for playing

Wow go Daddy - give us a break! They just went to auto renew my domain but as my Credit Card number had changed (had mine nicked a few months back), the payment failed. You think they could have given me a warning and few days grace.

Anyway it is paid now and will probably take a few hours to come back up - hopefully this just builds the anticipation for you guys and does not put you off using the site :)
