The Table
Ranked on being right, and early, against the SWOOP Index. Not on volume. Who really knows ball?

Who called it first and best. Fresh start every transfer window.

All-time sharpest, by SWOOP Rating (50 = level with the Index).
Opens for anyone with 10 settled calls and a settled rating
- Fanbase vs fanbase
Which club’s supporters actually know what’s going on? Settled by skill, not numbers.
A club is ranked once 3 of its fans have 3+ settled calls
- Most followed
The forecasters fans choose to follow. Real follows only; it never touches a Rating.

How to get on it
- 1Make your calls
Give your chance on the live transfer stories, before the news breaks. Change it whenever you like.
- 2They settle
When the move is confirmed, or when the window closes (1 Feb). Calls stay private until then.
- 3Climb the table
Scored against the Index: being more right than it, and earlier, is what counts. Misses included.
How the scoring works
You score by being more right than the Index, and by being right early. Jumping on a story after it breaks earns nothing: the Index counts every report from the moment it was published.
Reputation = Σ(weight × edge) ÷ (Σ weight + 10). Edge = time-averaged Brier advantage over the Index while you held a call; weight = min(1, √(time held ÷ 7 days)) (earlier sagas: share of the saga held).
Ranked by average Points per settled call (shrunk by 5 calls’ worth, so a couple of lucky calls can’t top it). You qualify at 5 settled calls.
