Mildly infuriating that if the top post gets 50k-50,999, 70k-70,999 and 90k-90,999 no one wins.

These are the points which are given for the tournament only . You cannot use it anywhere else even if you want coz it only works on this predictions.
Once we end this season predictions and start a new one . Everyone will again start with 1000 points

Reddit Predictions FAQ -
What are predictions, and do I have to spend any money on this to participate?
Predictions are polls where you choose the most probable answer and win (or lose) tokens depending on the outcome of the prediction. Tokens can not be bought for exchanged for anything of real world value.
Why is the prediction not showing up for me?
Try to use new Reddit or Reddit's mobile app, there's been issues with users that haven't been able to participate on old or compact Reddit versions.
ADMIN STATEMENT: Currently when you make a prediction, the Tournament post is automatically up-voted. We did this because Predictions are more fun when more people play and up-voting helps the Tournament to be seen by more people! Of course, you're in control and you can always remove your up-vote if you'd like. SOURCE: https://mods.reddithelp.com/hc/en-us/articles/4409834282509
How is this post (small amount of time) old when theres (large amount of time) old comments?
Whenever a new prediction is set up, the post is "regenerated" and shows up as new. Nothing we can do about that.
Have any other questions? Reply below and I'll try my best to answer them!

When I click on it I get an ad for reddit premium. I'm on the mobile app and don't pay for it. My guess to the question is taco bell tho, that's the day the taco pizza comes back

u/ameen__shaikh mildly Infuriating mod May 16 '22
You don't have to pay for it . Just select the option you think will win . Premium is for people who want to go with the crowd. And its not certain that always the majority will win .
Anyways what's the fun choosing what all have chosen? Why not choose something unique!

This was pretty fun for a post-middle of the night pee, pre-slumber. I wasnāt sure if I should aim deep-end, left-field or answer honestly.
I did the latter with each answer resulting in the majority. So now, Iām lying here wondering what that means about me.

What are predictions and am I wasting any real money on this?
The post is broken for me, why?
So many up-votes how?
No. We aren't abusing a ReDdIt COdE . We'd have been long banned if that was the case.
So many removed comments, why?
This is not a survey but a reddit predictions tournament . This has been created so that people can interact more with the subreddit . Predictions are reddit's latest experiment and it was a success .
Many people enjoy doing it and its very fun! To make this sub a better and a happier place , we are keeping this fun tournament .
Please note that the predictions in the tournament will not always be about reddit or the sub . There would also be some general predictions . But we will make sure that general predictions are basic as all can participate . It wont be from some specific movie , tv show or some event!
Thankyou !
