Hello again, friends!

Welcome back to our community countdown for the May Humble Choice launch. With the academic year wrapping up and summer just around the corner, it’s the perfect time to dive into our backlogs. Given the solid run of bundles we’ve seen over the last four weeks, what have you been playing lately, or furthermore, what pickups have pleasantly surprised you? My 5 year old, who’s previous gaming experience has only been gentle, casual games like Pokopia and Hello Kitty’s Island Adventure, has been playing the everloving shit out of Fight Crab and loving every second of it.

 

Anyway, drop what you’ve been up to the last 4 weeks or what your grail for this month might be, as we count down the hours until Humble Choice.

 


 

Also, please get your May Prediction League guesses in if you haven't already.

#May Prediction League closes for entries an hour prior to Choice launch (or sooner pending leak~!)

Scoring has finally been tallied! Though if you come across any errors you notice for you own personal scorekeeping, please drop me a line and I would be more than happy to audit through.

 


As always, be kind and civil toward one another in the comments. Personal attacks, overly toxic or excessively negative commentary, and political rhetoric of any kind are not welcome here.


 

And for those who hate money but love company, come lurk/laugh/love in our

#Discord community - Discord.gg/bundles

We got: enablers for your backlog addiction💸, achievement hunters🏆, a pet channel🐶, hot takes on food🍕, OC memes of questionable quality🤔, cold takes on food🤷‍♂️, a space for civil discourse🗣️, and MC/PZ/Terraria/DST/Return to Moria) community game servers!

^MC ^server ^will ^soon ^be ^open ^to ^the ^community, ^PZ ^- ^once ^I ^finalize ^whitelisting, ^others ^- ^started ^again ^if ^interest ^is ^there

What is Prediction League?

Prediction League is a fan-run competition, where each month, people try to predict which games will be in the upcoming Humble Choice!

Every user can guess up to 15 games and the highest price of one of them.

Submissions are then scored based on the criteria below, and at the end of the season, the best players will become known throughout the land, with prizes for top scorers to be disbursed at the end of the season.

 

Scoreboard for Season 9  

Archive of Season 8

 

Rules:

Post a maximum of 15 game predictions. If you post more, only the first 15 posted will count, even if you predicted a game as your #16.

Please, make sure to spell game names correctly. Otherwise, they might get overlooked by the search function.

All versions of a game, like standard and deluxe, will be considered to be the same. If a Choice includes a deluxe version, you don't lose or gain points for not guessing it was the deluxe.

Feel free to edit your comment at any time, but not after a credible leak or launch of the predicted month’s Humble Choice

If you guessed a leaked game before the leak, your guess(es) will remain valid and still count for points.

If you submit your prediction after the leak or edit your comment to include a leaked game, those games will not count for any points. Purposely using leaked games may also remove your previous points from the leaderboard.

 

Scoring:

Each correctly predicted game is worth 2 points.

Predicting three or more games in a single round is worth 2 additional points.

 

Bonuses!

Smartest Person in the Room 🧠 - The bonus score for being the only person to correctly predict a game has been increased to +2 (previously +1)

Close Call 🍃 - Predicting a game in the same series as one included in choice is worth 1 point. For example, guessing Dark Souls II will grant 1 point if Dark Souls III is in Choice. However guessing Sekiro does not grant a point if Elden Ring was included, since they don't share a name.

Collectivism 👪 - If all monthly choice games (8/8) are collectively predicted, every user participating in the round will receive an additional point. Special thanks go out to /u/ArcanaOfApocrypha for the suggestion :)

Double Down! 🎰 - Reduce your prediction to 5 games to earn double points per game correctly predicted (User must state they are doubling down for scoring to take effect. It will not affect score bonuses)

Mystery Month 🤔 - If 6 or more games in a round go unpredicted, points for the round will be scored for 2x

 

 

Tips

Look at past Humble Choices and recent bundles. Humble doesn't usually repeat these games, so they don't make for good guesses. A list of previously bundled monthly choice games can be found in the Prediction League Scoreboard Look for recent freebies on sites like Epic or Amazon Games. Many games have been given away there and then go to Humble a few months later. Games that have gone on sale recently. Think big and small! Humble Choice headlines some large titles but also includes smaller indies. New releases probably won't be included; think of titles released a year or two back. When in doubt, copium. If you've run out of ideas, you could put games from your wishlist and hope they appear in Choice.

 

If you have any suggestions for additional fun and fair rules for this season or would like to suggest modifications to this year's additions, please share them! I want a fun and challenging experience for newcomers and returning veterans this season.
