[football] Champions League Prediction Thing III
Despite moving the regular leagues to "another place", these longer competitions (world cup, champions league etc) always seemed to attract "the occasional predictor" and the knockout format benefits from a high number of entries (34 last year.)
Usual rules (posted on request), basically just quote the list and fill in the scores. No 'pattern' predicting allowed. Last year we did this as one big league with the top 16 going through to the next round. The previous year we did it as lots of little groups which is more fun but less fair. I'll leave the details until I know how many are playing. Competition starts Tuesday 12th September, but I'm sure you already knew that. |

Decent number of entrants too i spose, well over 20

Re: [football] Champions League Prediction Thing III
33 including PB's entries... I've decided to put everyone into qualifying groups so I'm just about to visit the random number generating site.
edit : here are the groups :) (any late signups will be randomly placed in one of the groups with only 4 players) Top two from each group go through to the next round, though there will also be "backdoors" into later rounds to keep things interesting.

Re: [football] Champions League Prediction Thing III
I'm not bottom of my group!
I'm tied with 1-X! score! :D |
Re: [football] Champions League Prediction Thing III
Ronaldinho had to ruin my 4-0 bet on Barcelona in the very last second of the match. How typical!
|
Re: [football] Champions League Prediction Thing III
I forgot how points are allocated, can someone explain it again please? :>
|
Re: [football] Champions League Prediction Thing III
the scoring system
League tables have 4 columns, X G B and Pts. For each match you get one of the following... 1 point 'G' for being generally right, ie you chose the right winner but the wrong score 2 points 'G+B' for correctly predicting a draw, again with the wrong score 3 points 'X' for getting the score exactly right 3 points 'G+2B' for a generally right longshot win (when less than approx. 20% of other predictors also predicted correctly for that match) 4 points 'X+B' for an exact draw 5 points 'X+2B' (or possibly more) for an exact longshot win. The number of bonus points awarded is the number of goals scored by the winning team +1. |
Re: [football] Champions League Prediction Thing III
Right, got it, thanks.

Re: [football] Champions League Prediction Thing III

Re: [football] Champions League Prediction Thing III

or the season before I can have a bad day (when the teams get it wrong!) but in the long term, after 100 in this competition, or 1000 in the weekly leagues, I expect to be near the top, and always have been. :) This isn't because of football knowledge, but this is the wrong time to explain what I do, and why it works. :) Besides, I'll probably fall flat on my face now in this comp. I usually lose when we switch to knockout games and one bad day can knock someone out. |
Re: [football] Champions League Prediction Thing III
I was always better at Premiership predictions but seeing as thats not around anymore i'm going to have to up my game in the Champs League. Luckily for me Furball seems to be predicting with a blind fold on.

We're hardly very far into it, and I'm only 4 points behind you. Besides, if Ronny hadn't scored in injury-time I'd have picked up an X. |
Re: [football] Champions League Prediction Thing III
I said usually, not always :p

Re: [football] Champions League Prediction Thing III
as expected, saying publicly I always finish near-top lead to a dismal day's predicting by me :(
