DWTS31 Prediction Game!

[*Wallace]

Welcome everyone to the 6th edition of the DWTS Prediction Game! Last season's game was a really tight race between Amanda & Lily for a lot of the game, with Diana also leading a bit, but Amanda took the win at that very last week. What shall happen this year?

 

I will be honest and say that I wasn't sure if I would be running this particular game this season. I wasn't really feeling the motivation for it and I'm also Disney+ less so how I will follow the show I don't know yet. But there was one thing that had me thinking of wanting to continue with the game, and that was seeing all of our pre-season predictions. So get to thinking of those right now!

 

We will do the games again I'm hoping all the usual faces participate, alongside some new faces. I'll need all and any help with questions so feel free to post suggestions.

Tagging those who participated last year + although anyone and newcomers are welcome as well!

[*Diana]

I can't wait to see how bad I do

[*Wallace]

And as always, you all are welcome to suggest questions for the question form!

 

The first week may not be an elaborate form as I'm not sure whether to do celebrity based questions. But we'll see. There will be the usual pre-season predictions, order placement and high/low scoring questions and such. Hoping to start the form sometime tomorrow.

 

OH and dance styles predictions. But I don't know what to do with that as we still don't have Week 1 spoilers?

[*Chris]

Will make sure to submit Week 1, this time!

[jarmon]

Oooh I'm excited to participate this time!

[*Wallace]

Just an important note before I post the form.

 

Predictions will be open from when I post the form to minutes before the premiere episode airs. Since there doesn't seem to be a Week 1 press release out, we'll still predict the Week 1 styles until there is a press release that comes out. If one comes out, then the Week 1 guesses will be void. This is always the tricky case with the Week 1 guesses cause sometimes the release comes out later than usual or not at all.

[*Wallace]

Let's start the predictions! Predictions will be open from now until just minutes before the 8pm airing of the show on Monday. Good luck everyone.
