Thanks for the additional predictions. They've now been added to the OP.
Just another edit I'd like to point out. When working out all those ROI/profits margins, I was going on the assumption my total investment would be £220. I've just remembered that because the FTT tournaments are rake free, my investment will be a tiny bit lower than that, depending how many FTT games I play. And because of that, I feel to make it fair (in case that small discrepancy pushes my final ROI/Profit into another range), we will just calculate ROI/Profit on the assumption of me investing £220 over 100 x £2 tournaments.
I the nieces and nephew staying over, so they're keeping me on my toes for now. So just a quick update to say that I'll post an update later tonight with my progress over the first batch of tournaments, and as some of you are aware, I ran well this week in two of the forum competitions, and bagged myself a couple of prizes.
That means, as promised, I will be offering these (£33 & £5.50 tickets) as prizes to some side-comps of this challenge.
Along with my initial results, I will also post details of how you win these tickets later tonight, so please check back then to join in.
Here is a breakdown of the first dozen tournaments of this challenge. My sluggish form just had to coincide with the start of this challenge, so not a lot to report on.
Only one cash so far, but it was a final table, which probably saved it from being a total disastrous start.
In other news. Last's weeks forum comps were generous to me. I won the daily comp and finished 3rd in the MML. That means, as promised, I will relinquish the tickets and offer them here as prizes for side comps.
After a little bit of thought, I have come up with two ways to do this.
The first, will be to win the larger £33 ticket. All you have to do is predict which position (in percentage) that I will finish in the final (100th) tournament of this challenge. Everyone is welcome to take a guess until the start of it.
Please leave your guesses below before the start of the 100th game.
....
The other comp, to win the £5.50 ticket to a mini event of your choice will be to predict how many final tables I will reach in this challenge. This will be from tournaments number 25-100. And you have until the start of the 25th tournaments to get your predictions in.
....
Even if you do not wish to win any of these tickets, please still make a prediction. I will donate the value to a charity of your choice and offer the ticket to the next closest. It's a win/win situation for all.
It's only a small token of gratitude to give back to the forum that has been generous to me with free comp prizes over the last year or so.
Any questions, please ask.
List of predictions will be edited into the OP. And next update for this challenge will be after the next 10 or so games. Hopefully a more positive report will be waiting.
I have now played 19 of these. Not a lot to report since last post.
But just a little reminder that anyone wishing to make a prediction for how many FTs i'll reach between the 25th and 100th game has until that 25th game starts. It will probably be over the weekend.

I'm looking forward to see how this pans out.
See you at the tables.
I have faith in you.
Good Luck.
Thanks for all the good luck messages and predictions, guys.
Let the games commence!

Good luck and have fun. See you at the tables.
I predict middle of the field 50% on 100th game
and 7 final tables in your last 75 games
Good luck

At the moment, there is only 1 guess.
Cheers
EDIT: chage that to 8 FTs as someone has 7 already
Can you please confirm which you'd prefer as someone also has 8.
It's okay if you want to have the same as someone else. In the event of a tie, I'll just draw at random.
Cheers
