June 13, 20187 yr First KO stage keeps failing so just deduce the losers lolSent from my LGMP260 using Tapatalk
June 14, 20187 yr I'm a little disappointed with how it turned out, but I just analyzed head-to-head matchups and off-the-top-of-my-head strengths & weaknesses of each team in a head-to-head and yech... I do not like the way that it turned out. I hope that I'm wrong and don't come close to winning this thing. https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/44455057#results=4,3,6,5,9,11,13,15,17,18,21,23,25,28,29,31,5,9,6,13,17,25,21,28,9,17,6,21,17,6,17
June 14, 20187 yr There’s like ten options on this thread. What is the official one? I’m not doing one where we have to post screenshots of our picks.

June 14, 20187 yr Well when you leap back to this time set us up somethingI filled a bracket in every group...yall need to be decisiveSent from my LGMP260 using Tapatalk
June 14, 20187 yr Author All right, I just created a system where we can just post our pics here. This system should more or less work but will likely need a few scoring tweaks from someone who's better at math than I am, which is literally everyone. Here it is; Fill out a bracket all the way through and post your picks here. Scoring: Group winner- 20 points Runner up- 10 points Both correct- 20 points Both teams in inverse order- 10 points KO rounds: 10 points for each winner correctly predicted Bonus points for correctly predicting winners in original bracket- 20 points for every team in final 8 35 points for every team in semifinal 50 points for winner Bonuses for KO rounds- +30 for correctly paired QF matchups +40 for correctly paired semifinal matchups +50 for correctly paired Final +60 for correctly paired Final and winner And maybe some bonus points for predicting the 3rd place game correctly? Somebody polish this turd and keys do this --------------- So, we all post one original bracket- after the KO rounds are set we start over with our picks, but bonus points are available for those who correctly predicted matchups and winners in their original bracket- does that make sense?
June 14, 20187 yr Author Also we could do $25-$30 and I can hold people's money if need be. If we need someone more reputable BO has been handling the money in our fantasy leagues for years.
June 14, 20187 yr Author Also I wouldn't mind if we extended entry into this thing into Friday- there's only one game tomorrow and pretty much everyone has that group shaking out in the same order anyway. We can all have that first game in the books so nobody really has an advantage.
June 14, 20187 yr Thats fine goo...tomorrows game wont matter much when saudi goes 0-3 in groupSent from my LGMP260 using Tapatalk
June 14, 20187 yr Author My picks: Group A- Uruguay Russia Group B- Portugal Spain Group C- France Denmark Group D- Argentina Croatia Group E- Brazil Switzerland Group F- Germany Mexico Group G- Belgium England Group H- Colombia Senegal KO stage: Spain > Uruguay France > Croatia Brazil > Mexico Belgium > Senegal Portugal > Russia Argentina > Denmark Germany > Switzerland Colombia > England France > Spain Brazil > Belgium Argentina > Portugal Germany > Colombia France > Brazil Germany > Argentina France > Germany Brazil > Argentina
June 14, 20187 yr Author Y'all wanna do something like $25-$30? I figure if we get 8 or fewer people we can do a winner-take-all, and start taking about runner-up money if we get 9+.

June 29, 20187 yr For those in my bracket, I’ll be reaching out to those that haven’t paid. also, you can still change future rounds, so do that if you are fucked.

July 15, 20187 yr Let me look and see who all has paid and whatnot. I only had a couple people pay, so may just refund everyone.

So, Derka, keep your money as "winnings", and I'll do the rest of the payouts. FireStarters - 5250 skipperj - 4650 Giroud 4 Golden Boot - 4600 All picked France, and all are Arsenal fans.
July 16, 20187 yr 1 minute ago, Goo Punch said: i already paid. I never received any payment from you. I do see that the original post had the correct email (skipperj@skipperj.com), while a reply later had an incorrect one of skipper@skipperj.com. Go in to paypal and cancel the transaction. It didn't go anywhere as that email doesn't exist.
July 16, 20187 yr Author hmm. do you now how to cancel a payment? i'm not seeing where to do that. i do see it in there as pending. edit: never mind, i see it. Edited July 16, 20187 yr by Goo Punch
