Tipping Comp

[Blaze]

It should just be 1 point for a win IMO and nothing else. Otherwise it gets too confusing

[33/3from3.3]

fine 1 pt for a correctly guessed win

[The Foxtrot]

i will keep both in mind

still just fine tuning how i will do everything at the moment
4 weeks out i will post a full set of "rules"
i will also post a full match schedule, and little things later on

the reason behind posting the rules 4 weeks out is to make sure everyone can have a look at them....Under no circrumstances will any modifications be made to those rules after that post however, before that date, make a suggestion and let it be open to the discrepency of the other tippers*

* - must be a registered tipper to have your say

[33/3from3.3]

are you going to use my rules???
or did you already have some made up

am i a registered tipper ???

[The Foxtrot]

maybe
yes...but only some
yes

if you have said that you want to be in then you are registered

[33/3from3.3]

ok
CW look out

4 points for spot on result
3 points for getting the margin of victory correct (or a draw which is 1 goal out)
2 points for getting the outcome.

All predictions up to kick-off are valid, no editting of posts allowed.

Those rules were simple and used to work perfectly fine when we had something in the past.

My tuppence worth: we could all register on a site that lets you run a private league. It also has the advantage of preventing cribbing of others' tips.

However if posting tips in a thread is the way to go how about:

1 point for correct outcome (win, loss, draw)
1 point for correct score (1-0, 2-1, etc)
1 point for first goalscorer
2 point bonus for all three (i.e. if you tip England to beat Trinidad 3-0 with Rooney as first goalscorer and all come to pass you get 5 points)

i like boy brumby's idea about the private league on a site the only problem is finding one
keep the ideas coming

[Matteh]

I like Marc's points system - but i also like the idea of trying to guess first goalscorer...

Finding a site would make it easier if lot of people sign up...but as stated the problem is finding one

[marc71178]

My scoring system is tried and tested as being a fair way of awarding both those that are consistently accurate but also the spot ons!

Mind you, when we get near to the actual Tournament finding a site won't be a problem I'd think.

There'll also no doubt be a Fantasy Football thing for Dale to win.
