[Football] Prediction League - DS9 :rolleyes:

Apologies for the late start (and the awful title, but it is the sequel to the "TNG" league :p
Think of it as a punishment for mocking the mighty championship; now you're in a league with an embarrassing name too :D)

If any "new" people want to play, I think I have a way for teams to be taken by two people. Just claim a team and I'll add you to the fixture list.

Code:

1 Kurashima        Newcastle

2 Grimble v2.0  Birmingham

3 midge5        Middlesbrough

4 Deffeh        Liverpool

5 JC                Blackburn

6 Ragnarak        Tottenham

7 Non.Human        Crystal Palace

8 Lokken        Portsmouth

9 Lupin                Aston Villa

10 Blastoderm  Norwich

11 Apothos        Charlton

12 Zharkov        Man City

13 Koen        Fulham

14 JonnyBGood        changing random prem

15 Phang        changing random prem

16 LHC                changing random prem

17 Stew                changing random prem

18 1-X                changing random prem

19 SYMM                changing random prem

20 MrL_JaKiri        provisionally random



21 Skiddy        Newcastle2

Apothos and Zharkov asked for a random fixed team. I made sure you didn't get the same as last season (Everton/Southampton).

Chelsea, Arsenal, Man Utd, Bolton, Everton, Southampton, West Brom become the pool for random changing.

Scoring will be slightly different to last season.

G1, A2, X3... A2 will be for any draw, a general home with correct home goals, a general away with correct away goals, but no longer for correct goal difference (unless you all scream "CHANGE IT BACK!!")
HST, a point each for correct halftime score, named first scorer, and time of first goal +-3 mins.

example...

Code:

Kurashima (Newcastle)  v  (Blackburn]      JC

FT 3-0                3-1              FT 2-0

HT 1-0                      1-0              HT 0-0

Kluivert 13        Bellamy 16      Shearer 60

ATH                                            G

                Kura 4 - 1 JC

A few of you have had a preview of my "predictability handicap". It's a rule I might add later. All you need to know is that predictable teams could be made harder to win with if it seems people have an advantage. Allowing people to change teams later, or join/leave the random changing group should be ok too.

If any "new" people want to play, I think I have a way for teams to be taken by two people. Just claim a team and I'll add you to the fixture list.

Re: [Football] Prediction League - DS9 :rolleyes:

anytime before saturday to predict the match I've allocated in his absence. He can choose a permanent team later if he wants to.

I'll take Newcastle then.

1-X	10 Aug 2004 18:51

Re: [Football] Prediction League - DS9 :rolleyes:

the way it will work... midge5, kurashima and skiddy all predict the middlesbro v newcastle match

kura and skiddy have their scores compared to midge5's
midge5 is scored against the average of kura and skiddy (probably, there are various methods and I'll see what works best after we have some results)

if someone else signs up as middlesbrough2 then there would be two completely separate matches

This upsets me greatly :(. I have never predicted us to lose and you have Kura beating me, talk about rubbing salt in the wound :(.

10 Aug 2004 19:25

Re: [Football] Prediction League - DS9 :rolleyes:

Nobody's ever been beaten at anything by kura. Your example is both unrealistic and confusing 1-X. Your public demands in-depth explanations accompanied by charts and preferrably a graph correlating JC's bias with kura's outright stupidity.

PS :up:

can I claim it was intentionally unrealistic to help illustrate the fact that it was a fictional example?

There is nothing to chart unless there is a variation in possible values of JC's bias and Kura's outright stupidity. Are you suggesting they are ever anything other than 100%?

I don't mind, but if people complain, then it could become a rule that predictions must be logical.

while this is a perfectly acceptable prediction, and you would get bonus points for scorer and time if there were none.... you could predict a scorer + time to have a chance of points if your score prediction is wrong. Actually, it highlights why Ragnarak's prediction probably shouldn't be allowed, but as no-one seemed to mind, non-logical predictions are currently acceptable.

Can anyone remember what we did last season? :)
