Game Rules Etc. Submission instructions. Please read. Short version of submission instructions: 1) Click link to submission form. 2) Enter predictions and click "Submit". 3) Post in forum to confirm submission. ("Submitted", "In!", "You're all going to lose to me!" Anything along those lines will do.) Long Description: The person who can closest predict the total weekly attendance added from each of the absolute values from each game, IE the lowest score, will be declared the winner. Predictions must be submitted to a Google Form linked from the thread each week. Guesses larger than 80000 or smaller than 4000 will not allow the form to be submitted. (Some web browsers cause an error to be shown, even when a legal guess is entered. In this case, try submitting the form anyway.) Once submission of the Google Form has occurred, the player must post to the weekly game thread that they have submitted predictions. Have fun and enjoy. Guesses for all of the week’s games are due by game time of the week’s first game. 15 points will be given to the weekly winner, followed by 14 points for second place, continuing to 1 point for 15th place. All new players are welcome and a player can jump in and out any week. Edwardgr and TopDogg are examples of players who have had strong showings after joining the game later on in the season. Points will tally throughout the season and the player with the most weekly points will be declared the season champion, so the player who plays more often will have an edge. A player may change his/her guesses anytime before the week’s first match. To change your guesses, simply re-submit the Google Form with the changed guesses and post in the weekly thread that you have submitted changes. You do not have to resubmit a guess for every game; you can leave blank the games that you do not want to change. Only after the player has posted in the forum that they have submitted predictions/changes, will the predictions be marked off as confirmed (seen in the second column of the submitted predictions spreadsheet) Early submission of predictions is permitted by submitting the relevant form and indicating in the current weekly thread that an early submission for week X has been submitted.

Atlanta United is only going to have TWO full stadium games in 2017. September 16th vs. Orlando and October 22nd vs. Toronto
Biggest regular season in TOYOTA Park, more than the 2007 LA Beckham game (21,374). All-time record crowd in TOYOTA Park 21,723 in 2009 playoffs against RSL.
21,144 in Portland 19,541 in Montreal 25,527 in Orlando 19,869 in Kansas City 16,089 in Colorado 21,183 in Vancouver 18,000 in San Jose 22,415 in NYCFC (that KILLED my week).
Doesn't look like the upper deck seats are available (trapped off), so the crowd should be 39,000-40,000.
