    Hi David, after round 6 the total was 35 correct. You only got 4 correct in round 7 but the total jumps to 40 instead of 39, so your cumulative total has been off by one since then.

      This actually dates back to round 1. I originally had the Warriors as having a home game with home ground advantage. I realised when I was doing the forecasts for the later games that this was not sensible so I changed so that the Warriors games played in Australia which are nominally home games, I now treat as on neutral territory. Making that change, the first round Warriors game was predicted correctly adding one to the number of correct predictions. I wanted to back date that change in order to get the ratings correct for future games. You may subtract one from the number of games correctly predicted if you wish.
