Hey guys, this will be the forum for predicting the scoreline of the games of the top 5 teams in the epl, between now and the end of the season. This has the potential to be fun if we keep the predictions coming. I will keep the game open for everyone, between now and the beginning of the next game week, whilst I try my best to publicize this. Once the next game week begins (30th of March), hopefully all predictions will be in and we can keep the people that predicted as members of this league. I have made the points earnings quite straight forward, but of course, suggestions will be very welcome ...Here they are :
* Predict the 100% right final score- 5 points (instantly, no additions) * Predict the right result (E.G correct team wins or draw)- +3 points * For each team total goals scored predicted- +1 point * Correct goal difference predicted- +1 point (Only valid if correct result was predicted)
Notes * By this format of earning points, for each fixture, only a total of 5 points can be gotten. If its not very clear, please let me know so I can clarify, but keep in mind that its not possible to get more than 4 points if you have not gotten the 100 % correct score line. Confusing? Lol * More often than not, there will be a total of 5 fixtures to predict, making the total possible points earn able each week =25 * On the weeks of a fixture(s) between the top5 teams, the total possible points earn able will be < 25 * There are a few weeks when some of the top 5 teams will play twice, depending on the fixture pairings, its possible for the total points earnable in such a week to be >25. I will make these weeks known. * To keep this fun and exciting, in the event that one of the teams currently in the top 5 position get kicked to a lower position, the new team's fixtures will now be predicted, excluding the former.
Rules * Please make sure you drop by and make your predictions before the game week begins. * You can edit your preditions as much as you want up till around 12am est on the night before the next gameweek. At this time, I will be taking a screen shot of the entire forum (locking in all predictions). The link to the captured forum will be posted * So as to minimize errors, once the first person puts in he's predictions for a game week, please try to post only your predictions as a reply, not random discussions, so everything is in order * Anyone that fails to put in a prediction for either two weeks a row, or a total of 4 of the game weeks will be kicked. If you miss a game week, you will be able to make it up in the end with the bottom 5 fixtures. * Lastly, please do not reply this particular comment, because updates on the leader-boards will be done on here.
Please type a message on my wall if you have any questions. Goodluck AND HAVE FUN !
Sunderland 0 - 2 Man United Arsenal 1 - 0 Reading Man City 2 - 2 Newcastle Southampton 0 - 3 Chelsea Swansea 1 - 1 Spurs
And Dawich, I might be editing my predictions according to my mood And remember to copy predictions somewhere before the game to make sure no one cheats!
LOL.... Damn bro, maybe in the future, I could come up with a way to earn more points for upsets. Between, please ensure that you don't break your predictions into two comments anymore, so that there will be no confusion. Prefferably, you should reply comments under the first prediction. Cheers
A mod was supposed to make this forum a 'view only' forum till the end of gameweek 1, but I think he forgot. However,I have taken a screen capture of the entire page to lock in all predictions for game week 1. No more predictions will be allowed from this point. Heres the link.
I am top? I thought some Barcelona fan outscored me. :/ PS: Dawich, I am still confused about the breakdown. Could you tell me how I got 19pts for clarification(My total is coming up to 18 for some reason)
Yeah Sura, you killed it! If you are reffering to 7anan, he would have been top if he had not gotten Swansea v Spurs totally wrong. Here is the break down of your points bro, yeah its 19! Sun 0 Utd 2 - 0pts for Predicted final score line ; +3pts for predicting right result(utd win) ; +1pts for Num of gsc by Sunderland; 0pts for goal difference ==> 4pts for gm 1 Asnl 2 read 0 - 0pts for PSL ; +3pts for PR ; 0pts for PGS ; 0pts for PGD ==>3pts frm gm 2 Manc 2 New 1 ==> 3pts frm gm 3 as well, only for predicted result Stmp 3 Chls 2 - 0pts PSL; +3pts PR ; 0pts PGS;1pts PGD ==>4pts frm gm 4 Swa 1 Tspr 2- Instant 5 points! So, 5pts frm gm 5 Total comes to 5+4+3+3+4 = 19 pts . Hope I was clear enough lol. For those of you confused as well, please check out this model
Whoever is in the top three predicting this stuff: we have some epic games ahead on the 4th of May. You could be affecting the outcome of bets.... Oh s**t, quantum physics time. Don't go doing any dodgy numbers, Spurs fan!
For discussion on gameweek 1, please reply comments above. Here is a notification that for gameweek 32, the maximum number of points that can be gotten will be 20, because of the Manchester derby. I figured we could get on with week gameweek 32 predictions, but note that if you are not already a part of the league, your predictions will not be considered on the leaderboard. Contact me for possible entry(subject to members getting kicked for being inactive). Ok, here we go....
Gameweek 32:
United 1 Man City 2; Chelsea 2 Sunderland 0; Westbrom 1 Arsenal 1; Tottenham 2 Everton 1
