Everyone guesses, one person gets closest
Before a birth or a wedding everybody has a theory: the baby comes early, the speeches run long, the groom's best friend cries first. A prediction game turns those theories into a small contest.
Send one link. Friends type their name and their guesses: a date, a number with its unit, or one answer from a short list. Nobody sees anyone else's guesses until the end.
When the day comes you type what really happened and show the results. Each question gives points to the closest guesses, and a table shows who won.
How to run a baby pool or wedding predictions
Setting it up takes a couple of minutes; an account is only needed for the link.
Choose the baby or wedding template.
Edit, add or remove questions: a date, a number with a unit, or a choice.
Sign in, create the link and share it in the group chat.
After the big day, type the real answers and show the results.

How the winner is worked out
For a date or a number, guesses are ranked by how far they are from the real answer. The closest gets 3 points, the next distance 2 and the next 1; equal guesses share the same place.
For a choice, everyone who picked the right answer gets 3 points. The person with the most points wins; their best guesses are highlighted in the table.
Good to know
Guessers type a name rather than sign in, so a name can only be trusted as far as you know your friends.
Once you show the results, guessing closes for everyone.
The game counts points only; it is not for real-money bets.
Tips
- Keep it to four or five questions so everyone finishes.
- Add a fun choice question, such as who the baby will look like.
- Pin the link in the group chat so late guessers can find it.
Questions about the prediction game
Can guests see each other's guesses?
Not until you reveal the results. Until then they see only the names of who has guessed.
Can someone change their guess?
Yes, until the results are shown. Guessing again replaces their earlier guesses.
How are the points counted?
The three closest guesses on each date or number get 3, 2 and 1 points; a right choice gets 3 points.
Do guests need an account?
No, they only type a name. You need an account to create the link and to reveal the results.
Can I write my own questions?
Yes. Edit the template or add up to 10 questions of your own.
Is this for betting money?
No. The game only counts points for fun.
