Bristolatic Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 Where The Subscription League Points Went: Correct result W,L,D – 24hoursfromtulsehill, Carl Waters, JoeP, laticdickovarmy, rudemedic, Stevie_J Correct Half Time Score – No one thought we’d be 0-2 down Correct Full Time Score – And certainly no one expected 1-5 Correct No of Latics Goals – 24hoursfromtulsehill, astottie, Carl Waters, DavidCollinge, Ex_pat, JoeP, JoshOWTB, Laticsbiffo, lookersstandandy, NewBlue, nzlatic, rosa, rudemedic, warwickshire latics, Zorrro Correct No of Opposition Goals – Er, nah First Latics Scorer – Ex_pat, LaticsPete Within 100 of Attendance (3,566) – Carl Waters (-24), disjointed (-23), JoeP (+50), LaticsPete (+88), milnrow latics (+86), stevesidg (+67) Within 10 of Attendance (3,566) – No points here Correct Attendance (3,566) – Or here LaticsPete climbs 10 places and Carl Waters jumps up 8 , whilst LaticsChris dropped 5 places . HarryBosch and nzlatic cling on to 1st and 2nd by their fingernails, despite Harry editing within the 10 minutes before kick-off . Where The Free-to-Play League Points Went: No points were scored at all, although opinions4u would have picked up 3pts had he not posted at 3 minutes to kick-off, so they don’t count . Remember folks, posts and edits later than 10 minutes before kick-off time will not count . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HarryBosch Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 How long before kickoff can I edit? I thought up until 2.59 would have been ok? I did myself out of a point(s) too. FFS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewBlue Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Only the 3rd time this season I've changed the attendance after initially guessing within 100. Once I've reclaimed my bottle though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bristolatic Posted September 15, 2015 Author Share Posted September 15, 2015 This page says different http://www.owtb.co.uk/index.php/forum/78-owtb-prediction-league/ This is taken from the link you posted. I've bolded the relevant bit, but I'll have a word with Stevie_J who wrote up the rules. Scoring works as follows (please note there are some slight amendments to last season's scoring): Correct result (i.e. W,L or D) +2pts Correct no. of goals for Latics +1pt; Correct no. of goals for opposition +1pt; Correct full-time score +2pts; Correct half-time score +2pts; First scorer +3pts; Within 100 of attendance +3pts; Within 10 of attendance +5pts; Exact attendance +20pts; No 'first goalscorer' points will be awarded if there is no goalscorer (even if you predict no goalscorer). All league games (but not cup games) will count in the Prediction League competition. Any predictions submitted or edited less than 10 minutes before the stated kick-off time will not count.

I hold my hands up - I had missed this line when updating the rules and updated it yesterday. As Bristolatic pointed out, in this season's thread I had highlighted the change to 10 mins before kick-off for this season and IIRC there was a bit of discussion around that. Harry's prediction scored zero anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Head's-gone-full-scale meltdown about no points - in September! If it keeps going like this, there'll be nothing left of you come May.

HarryBosch Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 This is the craziness of the situation. It was a potential stain on my character. After reading the murmurings I searched for and read about your shameful Coventry away episode and it's clear such things don't matter to you. You've spent too much time around politicians.

disjointed Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 I did nothing wrong. That may be a fact, but a little bit of honesty about the underhand going's on, may have prevented this ugly episode in the prediction league rearing its head again.
