Ser Barristan Selmy 222 Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 If someone finishes above me for being an idiot and picking 0-0 for every game I'll be absolutely raging. I would implore Zappa to dock points to anyone who doesn't actually make any legitimate effort to predict matches. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If someone's above you picking only nil nils then I'm afraid your obviously a bigger idiot than them. Bitta fun. enjoyed trying to get up the league a bit. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTinMan99 0 Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 I was going to change my 3rd/4th place game score, but seeing as it's annoying the forum gimp, I think I'll leave it. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you predict 0-0 for everything you are not predicting, you are just ruining the point. There is no skill or spontaneity, you are simply ruining the spirit of the event. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't be docking points from anyone for playing the odds in whatever way they want. I knew that TinMan had a 0-0 system going, but he was only trying to play the odds and get points the same as the rest of us. There's absolutely no difference between what he's been doing with his 0-0 predictions and someone else who's went with the most popular score prediction for each game which has generally been 2-1. It's all valid whether you've played a system or not and that decision is final. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
buster. 5,185 Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 I was reading that quite a few lucky punters had backed Germany to beat brazil by 7 - 1 how do they pick them Of the more than 15,000 that take part in the predictions page where the Gersnet League is included, not one picked 1-7, although one did pick 3-7 (perhaps in the memory of Di Stefano?). 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No comment BTW - If you're having a dig at me for 2-1, I've used it a fair bit but have gone for other scores too. I would kick them out. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zappa 0 Posted July 11, 2014 Author Share Posted July 11, 2014 No, I wasn't having a go at anyone for regularly predicting 2-1 because throughout the tournament that's regularly been the most popular score prediction in the game, so it stands to reason it would be a common choice in our league. I'm just saying there's no real difference between someone regularly picking 2-1 scores and someone like TinMan regularly picking 0-0 scores. It's all just playing the odds at the end of the day, so it's all fair play. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
