First KO stage keeps failing so just deduce the losers lol1ad5f44437775d08c11ec6889620bec1.jpg66b6a3afc6dcbcb3e6318de705791f3f.jpge7b9d9f80fe46f4663ad60e628762e14.jpg23519a80d302927f837a3796060a073d.jpg554cb095f2fa47b222b83f09f9aec2b5.jpg

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.

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.

This challenge sucks, I blame Goo's leadership and Bone's screen shots. 

Same here. I just tried to go the group I originally linked and it told me I wasn't a member.

Well when you leap back to this time set us up something

I filled a bracket in every group...yall need to be decisive

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?

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.

Sounds good.....my bracket is ^^^^ lol

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.

Alright, so I'll post my picks here as soon as I'm done. (Placeholder)

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+.

I'm going to make this easy for everyone. This is the easiest one that I have found. I have created a Surly group. I will invite some friends to get more money in the pot.

1st place - 70%

2nd place - 20%

3rd place - 10%

https://bracket2018.mlssoccer.com/#league/standings/4551?code=APM37CUP

$30 entry you can send to skipperj@skipperj.com via paypal. If you prefer to do Venmo or anything else, let me know.

If you want, create a free temp email address and PM me who you are.

 

Dang.

  • Author

senegal losing on yellow cards cost me the lead to this point. still fairly early though and i like where i'm at.

Yeah but you only have 2 games actually matched up on one you posted here...so bracket is way off

England/columbia and brazil/mexico

senegal losing on yellow cards cost me the lead to this point. still fairly early though and i like where i'm at.

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.

You can? I tried to do it and the site said picks were locked.

  • 2 weeks later...

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

and the final verdict is...

A non-shaggy person got 1st, I got second, Derka got 3rd. 

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. :)

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.

  • 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.
