Worrying Statistics (or More Chances For Me To Win the Grand Prize)

I actually planned on writing an article today, and when I took a look at the GK ownership, something stood out:

The total ownership % for the top 12 most selected Goalkeepers results in 77.73%, and if you add up the ownership of all GKs, it'll be 80.28%.

As every team needs to select 1 goalkeeper, this means that nearly 20% of the registered teams in Today Fantasy League did not set a starting lineup.

From the Leaderboard page, you can see the total number of signups, which stands at 5,659. Excluding those 20% inactive managers, there are only roughly 4,500 managers which are deemed active.

This is a far cry from the 14,000 signups from last season's game, which was limited to Singaporeans only. With the game expanding to Malaysia & Indonesia & flood of Twitter posts, I believe the low turnout would come as a shock to the organizers.

Nevertheless, with lesser active manager, this increases our chances of getting the US$5,000 Grand Prize.
