Beta Contest: Football Predictions

[italian_stallion21]

I should have know we'd tie. When was the last time Italy ever started a World Cup strong?

 

[The Franchise]

Pacific 2010 takes the lead, and only 1 of 2 people to pick Italy to blow that game and come out with a tie.

Hey I picked a tie...what are you saying

 

[italian_stallion21]

I'm really liking this thing, very easy to use and love the live-updated standings. Mikey_C_9, you are very, very bad at this

 

[mikey_c_9]

haha very true i'm not doing well at all.

But in my defense I did enter all of the scores for the group stages in about 1 minute because I didn't have much time. When it comes to the knock-out stages I will spend some time thinking about the scores I didn't put down a single 0-0

EDIT: I'm going to go and re-do some of my predicitons I didn't realise I was doing THAT bad.

It'll be great starting in August / September when all the leagues and competitions are going... EPL, SPL, Bundesliga, La Liga, Champions, Eurpoa, etc...

 

[mikey_c_9]

Yeah sweet, thinking of all the leagues I can be at the bottom of

 

[Sir M]

Thus far, from what I have seen the World Cup is a bit of a letdown...but I would rate the entertainment value of teams as follows:

Excellent:

Germany

Good:

Argentina
Netherlands
Ivory Coast
Uruguay
France
Ghana
Brazil
Nigeria

Average:

England (barely)
South Korea
Mexico
South Africa
Portugal
Slovenia
Denmark

The rest haven't played yet or have been tedious to watch.

Erm.... you couldn't find a better place for that than this thread?

 

[Sir M]

Erm.... you couldn't find a better place for that than this thread?

Lets see...I have bet on these teams in the World Cup, and these are my observations so far.

So I guess the answer is no.

PS, I left the toilet seat up too.

 

[cside17]

Who flushed the tampon?

 

[Sir M]

Few pints after the game last night...?

 

[mikey_c_9]

Now I'm just getting unlucky

 

[italian_stallion21]

At least you're on the first page though

Fcuking 'ell, I'm sinking like a ship here off the pace

FYI Reminder:

Prediction results after today MUST take into account overtime and PKs - there is no such thing as a draw and pk goals count.

For example, England v Germany ends 1-1 AET... in PKs both teams slot their first 4 shots, ze Germans slot their fifth and Terry skys his over the bar. Final result: Germany 6 - 5 England.

Giddy up.

 

[bergamascho]

Jesus Christ that makes it complicated...

 

[Regs]

Not as complicated as getting Italy to the final

 

[bergamascho]

Har har har... Just remember who's in first place in that little prediction game

I don't think this is correct.... I picked 5:4 for Ghana..... The final was 2:1..... Seems i got 0pts since it shows a 1:1 final.....

WTF.... Is the final after 90 correct? if so i need to change some scores!!

 

[Regs]

Nope - I've contacted the service provider to correct it - they made it VERY clear beforehand that the scores would be after PKs... believe me, it was the first thing I did right when I saw what was happening

 

[Regs]

And there you go, it's been corrected.
