Matt Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Same rules as last year, however depending on numbers we may have something brand new this coming season! Can you predict your way to the top of the league? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
24hoursfromtulsehill Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Same rules as last year, however depending on numbers we may have something brand new this coming season! Can you predict your way to the top of the league? Can we have pre-season friendly predictions? They won't count for anything but it could indicate form and help people to limber up for when the real action starts. Plus - where do I collect my prize for last year's runaway victory?

laticdickovarmy Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 How does this work mate, do u predict attendances, scores, scoreres etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted July 22, 2011 Author Share Posted July 22, 2011 It's easy to make a prediction. Just post in the relevant match prediction thread, which will be posted before each game by OWTB staff. Your prediction should detail your predicted score, first Latics scorer (or no goalscorer as the case may be) and the match attendance, in the following format: Latics 1-1 Opposition Team - Scorer - Attendance Scoring: (N.B. A new scoring system is introduced for the 2009/10 season) Correct result (i.e. W,L or D) +2pts Correct score +2pts Correct no. of goals for Latics +1pt Correct no. of goals for opposition +1pt First scorer +3pts Within 100 of attendance +3pts Exact attendance +10pts No 'first goalscorer' points will be awarded if there is no goalscorer. All league games (but not cup games) will count in the Prediction League competition. Any predictions submitted after the stated kick-off time will not count. Please note that post edits are recorded and, for obvious reasons, are not permitted after kick-off time of the respective game. Any participant found to edit their prediction post, for whatever reason, after kick-off time, will be disqualified from the competition. In the event that a member posts more than one prediction for the same fixture, the first submitted prediction only will count. For the avoidance of doubt, predictors cannot predict Latics to score in their result prediction and 'no scorer' in their scorer prediction for the same fixture. Likewise, predictors cannot predict that Latics will not score and name a first scorer. Each full prediction should be fully-formed and be a possible outcome of the match. Any predictions submitted which are contrary to this rule will be discounted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zorrro Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 I'm not currently in a position to be able to do the results from the season just gone. A lot of information got wiped from my PC and I haven't the time to collate 46 games worth of scores at the moment. I'll build things up again but it'll take time.

24hoursfromtulsehill Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 What do I need to do to sign up for this? There's no signing up. All you need to do is put your prediction of the score, first scorer and attendance in the relevant thread, which usually appears a couple of days before the next game. The scores are collated centrally before they declare me the winner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldhamSheridan Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 (edited) So is 'No goalscorer' a potentially correct first goalscorer picking up 3 points? Edited July 30, 2011 by OldhamSheridan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zorrro Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 Only if you put us down for a nil game in your result prediction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldhamSheridan Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 Only if you put us down for a nil game in your result prediction. I'm performing the experiment of putting 1-0 to the home team every game, so it's a little relevant to my system which I have now told everyone.

Matt Posted July 31, 2011 Author Share Posted July 31, 2011 So is 'No goalscorer' a potentially correct first goalscorer picking up 3 points? No. As there is no goalscorer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldhamSheridan Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 No. As there is no goalscorer. Ah, I'll change my system then as the points benefits mean you should never call an Oldham 'nil'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevie_J Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 At what points of the week/month/season do we get updated league tables? As frequently as we can manage. We (rummy & Zorrro, in actual fact) are upping our game on this front this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
