TBRW Predictions are up (http://www.tbrw.info/?/seasons/2019/2019_Predictions.html).  Come for the grammar mistakes.  Stay for the math errors.

Shouldn't the tbrw number for 2018 in the history table be "1"?

Yes.  But that's indolence, not inexactitude.  I'd still like to go back and reverse-engineer the new Prediction methodology for all the past results.  All the data's out there.  But, again... lassitude.

Anyway: updated.

The Purge has been added to the Predictions (http://www.tbrw.info/?/seasons/2019/2019_Predictions.html).  No change to the final standings.

This is strange. Very early this morning, I posted similar information because I thought you had forgotten it. It seems to have disappeared.

Add that Gavin Payne left at semester break at the same time that York did. I wouldn't expect that to have an effect. Note that besides for Tironese who has retired from hockey and the two who left mid-year, everything else is unofficial.

And you appear to have added RPI's Past and Fut incorrectly.

Fixed.  RPI gains* 2 points and is still stuck in 11th.

* Yes.  The less they return the better they get.  It's like the Mets.

We have sunk to an all-time low, being compared to the team which I have despised since they moved to Shea in 1964.

No doubt that is why Coach Smith cleaned house. Besides for Tironese and the Ohrvalls, they were probably all cuts. Rumor has it that York also would have been kept at midseason but had some disagreement.
