    I did send my human predictions in yesterday. I will try to send in the various BOTs in the coming days (using pre-kickoff values)

    Rushed in some partially random numbers (more focus on top spots).
    Tchau!

    Because of problems to access things (due to holidays - damn the EPL for starting during my holidays abroad!) I|m allowing new or updated/completed entries until Friday 12th 18:00 CEST!

    Six BOT entries submitted!
    * 1. ClubElo ratings (ClubElo)
    * 2. TransferMarkt ratings (TransferMarkt)
    * 3. FiveThirtyEight based on fixed SPI values, fixed at 2022-08-05 (FiveThirtyEightMinus)
    * 4. ClubElo ratings, allowing for team rating to evolve based on AR1 process (ClubEloPlus)
    * 5. TransferMarkt ratings, allowing for team rating to evolve based on AR1 process (TransferMarktPlus)
    * 6. FiveThirtyEight ratings, allowing SPI to evolve based on AR1 process.
    * This algorithm is supposed to mimic FiveThirtyEight's published predictions,
    * and is therefore named (PseudoFiveThirtyEight)
    I may or may not have time to also do the official FiveThirtyEight entry (more likely no than yes).
    Thanks for running this!

    I signed out from the hotmail account at 18:06 (CEST) and have downloaded
    all entries. All entrants have received a "got it" message. I'll post the entrants here later tonight or tomorrow. My entry was sent earlier to FM
    for anti-cheat-control by him. I'll post it here later, too.

    I have written to the EPL management requesting the canceling of the first round results. Only reply so far is a thumbs up from Klopp.
