Announcement for the 2024 Totallympics Prediction Contests

 

Towards the 2024 Totallympics Prediction Contests, there will be some slight changes to certain parts of the Totallympics Prediction Contests. 

 

Rule and format changes:

- "Double-the-points" for matches in Team Sports contests. Explained: Every user will have 5 "Double-the-points" during the Group stage, 3 for the Main Round stage, 3 for the Knockout stage (if the Knockout stage begins from the Quarterfinals or earlier. Only 2 if the Knockout-stage begins from the Semifinals).

The amount of "Double-the-points" for each stage in a contest will be written when the prediction design for each stage will be posted. 

 

- "Captain"-points for Individual Events contests. Explained: Each user can select 5 "captains" for the contest. Each "captain" will double its' points for his or her's event. Example: Athlete A wins its' event which normally gives 4 points in total. If User A has selected Athlete A as one of his/her captains, Athlete A will score 8 points for User A. Users can score a maximum of 14 points (Captain points + bonus point included). Notice! If Athlete A competes in more than one event, user A has to indicate which event Athlete A is "captain" in. "Captain"-points can only be used once for each of the 5 selected athletes.

 

- Able to see users' predictions. Explained: After the deadline for each stage in a prediction contest has passed, all users will be able to see each other's predictions. The contest thread will be locked during this stage until the prediction design for the next stage will be posted, or until the Prediction Contest Manager unlocks the thread. 

 

- Points distrubution changes for the overall standing. See below an example of the changes.
