Prediction League wk 1 Home Away Draw forcast score JOKER & bonus

8 GAMES WILL BE PUBLISHED …. CITY PLUS 7 OTHERS

PREDICT THE SCORE of City GAME AND 4 OTHERS………eg City 3 - 2 Florest, Wigan 1 Sheff W 2 etc etc etc

THATS ALL YOU DO PREDICT 5 GAMES then leave the rest to me
you get 1 point per aggregate goal of the match's selected, irrespective of the score you predict eg you predict 2-0 and it is 2-3 you get 5 pts.

Bonus
you get 1 point if home win PREDICTED CORRECTLY eg City 3 Florest 2 is your forcast and it is 1-0 you get the point etc below
2 points if away win PREDICTED CORRECTLY
3 points if draw PREDICTED CORRECTLY... 0-0; 1-1; 2-2; 3-3 etc
plus an additional
3 POINTS FOR CORRECT SCORE 2-2 / 2-1/1-2 etc
however
a 0 - 0 and 1 - 1 draw = 2pts ( linked so predict either) if you predict a draw 2-2 or more =3PTS

example:- your prediction …. result ……. pts gained ...

Brentford v Rotherham …………………. 3-0 ...result 3-0 = 3pts ag goals + 1 pt home + 3 points correct result/score
Bristol City v Nottm Forest …………. 3-2 …..result 2 -1 = 3 pts ag goals + 1 pt home
Ipswich v Blackburn Rover ………… 2 - 0 …..result 0-0 = 0 pts ag goals
Preston v Queens Park Rangers …… 2- 1 .....result 2-2 = 3 pts ag goals
West Brom v Bolton Wanderers …… 2-2 …...result 1-2 = 4 pts ag goals

total for week = 18 points

THE J O K E R … EACH WEEK mark 1 game with * / # / j / joker / $ /

SO ALL YOU DO IS FORCAST CITY RESULT and the result of 4 of the other 7 games and mark 1 as a joker

The 8 GAMES will be CITY plus games on BBC SPORT fixtures first four and the last 4 GAMES

SO get cracking and forcast the first weeks games

defaults
JGF2 = city 2-1 top 2 draw 1-1 bottom 2 is 1-1 draw ……...

Musty = Top 3, bottom 2, 2-1 to the home team deleting bottom to include Bristol match

some small print guide lines …. its a friendly game and occasionally we "forget"
when 8 games not possible on same day it will be city plus nearest 7 fixtures [ before days after days, ]
miss out an entry one week …. you will get City aggregate goals plus lowest 4 aggregate goals from games no joker bonus

if over stating number of results [ say forcast 6 not 5 ] it will be your top 2 & bottom 2 plus city game

a default OPTION, in case you miss out or forget …… you will always get City game aggregate score anyway as above but
you can nominate any 4 games by number from top to bottom 1 -8 give a score say 1-0 /2-1/2-0 etc and should you miss an entry then these will be used EG... better to have something than nothing
EXAMPLE ……..
TEAMS 1 3 5 7 @ 2-1 , or top 4 @2-1 , or bottom 4 @ 2-1 top 2 bottom 2 @ 2-1 etc any combination [ next team after city if they clash ] the joker will be applied to city or nominated if this option is taken up. not compulsory this is an option 2 of us did it last season and used it once!

JOINING LATE ...YOU GET THE average of LOWEST AGGREGATE TOTAL SCORE{max 5 previous weeks worth x weeks already played ] AS A TOTAL TO START ...........

There is nothing worse than spending time week after week doing a competition and not getting any points, always someone a minute closer or a few heads nearer .. even worse if you forget 1 week or go on holiday or what ever and get nothing anyway. As soon as you are a few points adrift you know it is unlikely you will catch up and the gilt wears off the ginger bread ….
That is why I DEVISED THIS COMPO.... it is simple to enter …
you just pick 4 results and the city game mark one as a joker [ score doubled ] and just sit back and watch your points accumulate.

FORGET TO MARK THE JOKER.....ooops don't worry you automatically get the city game

forget to do an entry! … again don't worry all you lose is the joker doubling the points for 1 game .. BUT you do get points … all the aggregate scores of 5 games city plus lowest 4 [ so at least you keep scoring points even if it is only 6-8 ! last seasons average ]
