World Cup Prediction League
I've been asked to post the fixture list for the current world cup prediction league here to avoid the hassle for potential players of signing up at another place.
If you want to take part, just quote the list in the next post and fill in the scores. I know it's short notice, but you have until 3pm on Friday. (You can post a section of it if you prefer but I won't be reminding you to add more later). I'll post details of the competition format later, as it depends on the number of players (14 so far). It will probably be similar to the last world cup thread here the scoring system for each game in round 1, you get 3 points for exact score or 1 point for being generally right (right result ie. WDL but incorrect score) on top of that basic amount can be... +0.5 for correct winning goals in a general win prediction +1 highscore bonus for exact predictions of 4 or more goals +1 for correctly predicting a draw, whether exact or general +2 longshot bonus if less than 20% of players predicted that result |

It'd probably make 1-X's life easier if you posted it at http://www.foxystoat.com/forum/showthread.php?t=11943 instead :D

Re: World Cup Prediction League
21 signups in total
in the first round, we'll have 3 groups of 7, the top 5 of each group will qualify, plus the highest scoring runner-up (so we'll have 16 in the 2nd round just like the world cup, probably seeded into 4 groups of 4 based on your score in round 1). random.org says... Group A gzambo ste Paisley Hugin tomkat roadrunner chel Group B bobzy isildurx koen Kjeldoran wiggy BlueArmy cannon fodder Group C 1-X insert maladoni VdM nadar rush ASG Quote:

Re: World Cup Prediction League
North Korea gets to play, that's kind of amazing. I feel sorry for those guys.

Re: World Cup Prediction League
North Korea was cool. I loved how they managed to hold Brazil's superduperstars away from their goal in large parts of the game. Although very defensive; watching players play with joy and pride is always a winner :)
But Kim Jong-Il might still be pissed for not winning. N.Korean news will probably only show the NK goal and pretend they won the match :) |

Re: World Cup Prediction League
You know your players have the right attitude when they walk off the pitch feeling disappointed after losing 2-1 to Brazil :p I just wish NK would play SK - that could be rather interesting. Sadly it won't happen before the semi finals...

Re: World Cup Prediction League
Crap, seems I'm really bad at these predictions. I started off great, but the last few days I didn't gain points. Shame, as I'm currently not gonna go through to the next round :)
