lfc forum prediction game (previous threads)

[MrMichael]

It'd need to be something that could be definitely verified, so perhaps "first Milan player to get booked for diving"

Sensibly, time of first goal might be an idea, 20 points for the closest person(s)??

Time of first goal. You've nailed it. Sounds good

[desertscouser]

And have to put up with Shaggy, RP, DS, Milky etc complaining for months?

Ok, sounds like a plan

Predictions v Milan

Suppose its about time I sorted this so people heading to Athens have time to post in it.

There's a tense finish in prospect, with the top 5 only 6 points apart its still very much there to be won

To avoid the minor confusion we had in the semis with extra-time and penalties, here's how I reckon it will work.

The score, and scorers you predict, should be from what you think the final score to the game will be, penalties not included. I'm not bothered whether it is after 90 or 120 minutes, I will just be taking the final score into account. If you believe the game will go to penalties, please state your predicted scoreline after extra-time, and then also simply who you believe will win the shootout.

RedPolo please note, there will be no points awarded for predicted scorers who are involved in any shoot-out

Double points will be applied, so there are 20 points on offer for a correct scoreline, 6 for the correct result, and 2 for each correct lfc scorer. A correct prediction of a draw followed by the correct winner on pens will earn 5 extra points, although incorrectly predicting the winner on pens will lose 5 points to keep it fair.

Examples.
1) Game ends 1 - 1. Lfc win on pens. Person A predicts 2 - 2 and a lfc win = 11 points (+ possible scorers points)
2) Game ends 1 - 1. Milan win on pens. Person B predicts 1 - 1 and a lfc win = 15 points (+ possible scorer points)

M-edit: After much umming and ahhing, I've now decided to scrap the proposed bonus for time of the first goal. Only a few people who've already posted have included it anyway, and it really isn't fair to arbitrarily change the rules at this point, so its dumped. Double points stays, and if I run this again next season, I may introduce a consistent bonus system for big games, but not now. My decision on this is final

Anyway, nuff of my waffle.

Kuyt, Gerrard

First goal - 27 mins

[MrMichael]

He's 28 points behind

Can I have the views of all the leading group on the bonus point idea, I've said in the predictions thread that we might go for 20 extra points for getting the time of the first goal exactly, or 10 for the nearest..... I know what DS thinks (lol), but I'd especially like Milky, RP, Shaggy, RawRed and Bacon's views also (along with anyone else who cares to give theirs)
