I already posted this in the Lazy Predictions thread but I would like to get a few more participations than I have so far, so I'm taking Caspi's recommendation and make this its own thread.
The concept of the preview is pretty simple: You participate in a survey where two random teams are paired against each other and you choose which of them will finish higher in the final 2026 rankings. You'll get 20 pairs for each division and as more people participate and more teams get paired against each other, each team will have a win rate that will determine the final prediction rankings.
You can participate multiple times to get more pairs (the pairs are random every time), and please feel free to. But of course it's even better if as many different people as possible participate to get the most perspectives and viewpoints. The median duration for one survey last year was just one minute, though that of course depends on how deeply you think through each pairing.
To make it easier to compare, I built a small Excel sheet that allows you to view any two teams within a division side by side. Download/create a copy and the Division and the two Teams become available as dropdown menu options.
Is there a number of times each individual manager would ideally participate? Like i dont want to do it 100 times because then my picks are too impactful on the final outcome?

Currently I have 10 PT surveys, 14 PCT surveys and 19 CT surveys, though I can't see if multiple surveys are from the same people. The percentage you want to take is up to you I can give some updates throughout the next days so you can have a feeling as to how impactful each individual survey is.
