After Mags suggested it, I finally went through the predictions of all the games thus far and put together the overall standings of the cumulative community prediction.
This is done by averaging the predicted Blazer score and the predicted opponent score, rounding those to the nearest whole number and using that as the community prediction.
I then assign a rank without superseding anyone else's rank for the game.
At this point the cumulative community prediction average rank is 14.4 which would be good for #8 on the full-season predictions standings.
Here is the question: what should I call the "Community Prediction"?
Thanks. I'll also revise the rankings for each game such that the Community Prediction will appear (again, without impacting the ranking for any given individual predictor) and then the cumulative standings will show how everyone is doing against the community average prediction.
Thanks.

- Community Prediction
- Cumulative Prediction
- Something Else?
