England better score 5 goals tomorrow :x

Thu Jun 15, 2006 9:14 am

Damn you Neuville! :x

Thu Jun 15, 2006 9:25 am

Damn, I'm so close to the bottom. :(


We need to get more points if we predict the score right. Right now it seems the risk to soooo much greater than the reward.

Oh well, I wont be a sissy and back out. I'll keep my scores up. I'll bury myself in my own hole. :)

Thu Jun 15, 2006 10:00 am

WHoa, from 13th to 6th :proud:. You're doing a great job with this Andreas (Y)

Thu Jun 15, 2006 12:31 pm

Nice, I'm 2nd :)

Thu Jun 15, 2006 7:57 pm

4th baby... (Y)

Thu Jun 15, 2006 8:26 pm

dadamafia: Yea, I'm with you though there are already pretty high points available: 3pts for a correct guess, 0.6pts if you come one goal away and 0.5pts if the team still wins. What would you suggest we increase?

Matthew: Thanks a lot :)

Thu Jun 15, 2006 8:29 pm

Yeah I think it's high enough as it is. Most people guessing the scores are getting it by pure luck, no one can really analyise Tunisia vs Saudi Arabia and decide it'll be 2-2 or whatever.

Thu Jun 15, 2006 8:35 pm

20th place (Y) .

Thu Jun 15, 2006 8:35 pm

oo nice from 14th to 7th place :)

Thu Jun 15, 2006 10:22 pm

Well I'm starting to move up :) .

Fri Jun 16, 2006 12:03 am

damn, that Germany win was bad as I had them drawing the Poles (N)

I figured since both teams play negative, boring football, that's a 0-0 draw seemed about right....

Fri Jun 16, 2006 2:36 am

Shit...why the fuck did i said Poland will get out of Gorup A....oh well, 7th place :|

Because the chances of getting it right isnt very good then maybe 4-5 pts for correct guess, 0.75 or 0.8 if you come within a goal and the same 0.5 if the team still wins. It may keep it competitive.

Fri Jun 16, 2006 1:25 pm

Yeah but maybe too competitive... one guy could get lucky and get 2 right in a round, then he's got 8 or 10 points which is the equivilent of another person guessing 4 or 5 games right without the scores.

Fri Jun 16, 2006 1:33 pm

My group predictions are getting a bit fucked now, Ecuador had to pop that spicy South American soccer shit. :x The Serbs will probably get knocked out too, I'm just hoping Argentina lose and the Netherlands tie the game at least that'll give my predictions a chance. Japan looks like they'll be outted and Australia will take 2nd place. :doh:

Well then we could limit the bonus for guessing the score correctly to 1 per day so there cant be anyone who will get 10+ points for being lucky. Give the 4/5 points for the first correct answer then 0.25 for any other during that day.
