kurtsimonw Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 (edited) I think it would be fun in the prem, but that'd be a ton of work for whoever organized it.Yep. I think one way around it would be a few people having access to the spreadsheet on google docs or something, at least if there were more people doing the work it'd become easier.

TrinityRoadSteps Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 I did one at work a few years back. Around 15-20 people in it. It doesn't really take that much time to get the results sorted but the problem I tended to have was getting everyone to put their predictions in on time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Milfner Posted July 13, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted July 13, 2014 (edited) And with that 3-0 win for The Netherlands, we now have our winner. Congratulations to the VillaTalk 2014 World Cup Prediction League Champion, Milfner *Nice little video montage of Milfner's best predictions here, very tasteful, that kind of thing* Your name has been engraved on the bottom in Biro (Black, fine line, naturally) Here are the latest standings with the final standings still to be decided. Shout out to VA, couldn't have done it without you xo PS, I'll go for a 3-1 Germany win tonight Edited July 13, 2014 by Milfner 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chappy Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 Thanks VA for organising this, enjoyed it even though I've finished in mid table mediocrity! Congrats Milfner! I would be up for a league one, if it's too much work for someone to organise we could always just make a league on here and it is done for you. I do like the idea of a 38 game spreadsheet though so if anyone wants to sort it out I'm definitely down! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think one way around it would be a few people having access to the spreadsheet on google docs or something, at least if there were more people doing the work it'd become easier. That's a pretty good idea. Someone would have to keep track of edits to make sure no cheating I guess. But if you cheat in this that's pretty sad.

I think I'll commit just to VT for Euro 2016 onwards and whatever competition we run between international tournaments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voinjama Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 Out of interest on this other site, what were the scores of the top 4. I presume your scoring criteria was exactly the same? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villaajax Posted July 13, 2014 Author Share Posted July 13, 2014 Out of interest on this other site, what were the scores of the top 4. I presume your scoring criteria was exactly the same? Yes, same criteria. This site is actually where this game originated from... in the form I use anyway. Their top 4 ended Scores - Points 10-56 10-56 6-48 5-46 What was impressive though was that the eventual winner had predicted 173 goals in total when counting up his predictions, the actual number being 171.
