Well, I was overly optimistic for 2015. Time to do it again for 2016! Grin

1. Andy
2. Chris
3. Seb
4. Lafungo
5. Stacy
6. Mick
7. Alicia
8. Ben
9. Dan
10. Etch

As much as I'd like to assert the contrary, change in the Top 3 seems completely unreasonable. I'm going to do the same thing I did in 2015 and claim I'll reach #4, although this time I'll put Stacy over Mick because even with minimal activity Stacy should be able to do it this year. I don't really see anything significant happening in the bottom of the Top 10 either: Dan doesn't seem motivated to close the 1.25 AF gap to Ben, and Etch probably won't play much Non-SC, but I think he'll do what it takes to get back in the Top 10 and stay there. Nosey and Alan fell off the face of the Earth in 2015, so I'm unfortunately not expecting anything from them this year.

I'll throw in a few extra predictions for lower down the rankings:
- Both Fabien and Banjo will reach Top 20, but neither will reach Top 15.
- Glozboy will reach the big 7-point AF graveyard in the 30s, but won't make any substantial progress in crossing it.
- TvK will stay ahead of Zwiebel in their eternal struggle for Worst Updater Ever.
- Harvey won't be in the Top 30 at the end of the year. Don't ask me how it'll happen, but it will.

Heh, that is an optimistic prediction! I'm aiming to get inside the top 35 at least though.

Booooo!

But yeah you are completely right about 2015. However I graduate this year, so let's see what summer brings? Would definitely not be a full scale comeback, but would be fun to get a few prs here and there.

I have many #30+ PRs. I can't let that happen. Personal long-term goal is #15 on all PRs edit: If I do manage to get all #15 or better I will be at least 10th in the world.

Haaahaha, and so ends my second short term in the top ten! Tongue

Congrats Cole, really enjoying seeing your ridiculously rapid ascension.

Well, guess this is half-true.

So shall we do another set of predictions for the next 4 months, mainly to figure out where Cole is going to end up? Tongue
