Sorry for this, I am working on a couple site fixes. As you likely have seen we've been getting slammed with a lot of spam on the forums lately so I've been working on a couple fixes to resolve that and overall site stability - things should be returning to normal now!

Also our prize for winning predictions in 2006 was a blockbuster gift card. There will soon be high school students that were never alive during Blockbuster’s time on earth!

I am certainly always open to changing how the prediction game works, as we have done in the past. For the record though, the reason it's setup in this way is intentional to force someone to make their own independent predictions before seeing others: that's why you can't view lists until you've made your own. Over the last couple of years we have tried to be better to not even add contests until we're a few weeks out (primarily because the bands attending really doesn't get locked in until pretty close in) which would allow someone to use scores from earlier on in the season to make good predictions. Additionally, if you've made predictions and the school lineup changes in any way (schools adding or withdrawing from the contest) you can edit your prediction list, even if you didn't have any of the impacted schools in your original list.

Thank you!

By the way if anyone is interested in being a predictions moderator please let me know! (It’s easy I promise)

Same here. I am unable to submit predictions and have tried twice now. I filled out to suggest US Bands AT&T Stadium Classic a couple weeks ago but haven't received updates.
This is intentional, as events are added on a rolling basis about 2 weeks out to ensure we have accurate rosters before people start predicting.

I would say only include our of state contests if there are Texas bands competing but would also be ok with including any contest featured by hornrank (BOA and major local contests). That means some random contest in Idaho or California or Massachusetts would probably not be all that interesting to make predictions for, but BOA Grand Nats would!
I like this approach. The only two pending September events were for BOA and I approved those (since schools add/drop all the time, I usually only go out a few weeks in advance)
-
As you may have noticed, 2022 Predictions are now live!
Head over to https://www.txbands.com/predict to make your predictions for most September events. If there are any contests you'd like added, you can suggest an event as well.
I have noticed a number of non-Texas contests submitted. We're good to include these but I would love the community's input on this. Please either post here or vote in the poll.

Sad to see that this feature no longer works, or at least it doesn't for me.
Go to the live blog, scroll down on the left (or upper, if you’re on mobile) panel, and click the "Live Blog Archive” button

We used to have a score archive on txbands, but it got out of date super quickly as it was a lot of work to maintain and keep everything up to date. That said, if we can be of assistance I'm glad to help build/host something here as well.

I like this a lot. I was wishing for something like this just the other day. I think you read my mind! XD
Awesome! Definitely open to any suggestions on how to improve it as well.

Hi everyone,
I wanted to share about a new feature on predictions (actually something from the old site that has been brought back!) - Aggregate Prediction Analysis. You can access the Aggregate Prediction Analysis for any event by clicking on View Lists and then the new button at the top
You'll see a table that includes a top-level predictions list based on what all members have predicted for an event. It's cool to see how our community's collective wisdom is very close to the real results for many contests!

While we're all here, there are a handful of contests I haven't found results for. If anyone has them I would be very appreciative:
- Sounds of Springtown Marching Showcase
- Katy ISD Marching Festival
- Edna Invitational
- Midway Marching Preview
-
Also, I will definitely delete out any bands that are not going to area (it wasn't clear from @abtwitch's spreadsheet where this was the case), but also don't let that stop you from predicting. As long as I'm not missing anyone on the area rosters, then you could in theory still make a full predictions list with only the schools that you know to be participating.
-
Can you tell me which areas are wrong and I can update them?
-
Actually got everything added all the way through 2A (except the 2A areas that aren't finalized yet), thanks @abtwitch!

What about @abtwitch’s spreadsheet? Does that help at all? ?
Great idea, 5A is up on the predictions page as well! https://www.txbands.com/predict

Is there only going to be predictions for 5A Areas and 6A Areas?
I would love to get 5A also, but would need some help with sourcing the schedules/participant lists

I’m with you both on this and definitely looking for some assistance in running the predictive game as it is difficult for me to confirm the accuracy of everything. Please send over a PM if you’re interested and I can set you up as a moderator!
