AUTUMN INTERNATIONALS - INHOUSE PREDICTION GAME

First topic message reminder :

It seems the prediction games this year have been quite a hit with some, so on popular demand I have put together the Autumn International prediction game.

I have tweaked the way of scoring points a bit as the points difference one doesn't provide an accurate enough method due to - and + predictions as well as the penalty points weren't working out well. If you forgot to perdict a game you could still gain as a 50 point penalty could actually be the score difference.

So this time round it doesn't penalise you if you don't predict, but you gain no points if you forget to predict.

NB! if you are worried you might forget, predict them all in the beginning.

How it will work this time:

You predict a Home Team Name win or Away Team Name win or Draw.
Then you predict more than seven- Yes or No

For a correct (win) prediction you earn 2 points - home TEAM NAME, away TEAM NAME or Draw.
For a correct (margin) prediction you earn 0.5 points - more than 7 - Yes or No.

Fixtures.
