First Slovakia is apparently part of Russia and now it's under the Danish flag. Slovakia is really being occupied. XD

@Dnl I would like to ask about tomorrow's time schedule. Will it be 10 minutes for each jury to present their votes? I'm asking because when we only have half of the juries left if we could extend the time to 15 minutes for each jury to present their votes? I'm updating the points and leadingboard and 15 minutes would give me a little more time leverage for me to update in. Juries can present their 12 points with about 3-5 minutes left and then there would be a couple of minutes before the next jury would present its votes. Also having a break after the first 10 juries? The break could be about an hour and then we have the 10 last juries. I don't know how tight your schedule is tomorrow? These are only suggestions.

It's 09:00 CET.

Prediction Contests Are Just-For-Fun Games You don't need to be an expert to take part in a Prediction Contest. If a mistake penalizes you, always keep in mind that everyone is in good faith. Competition Details City Multiple Cities Start Date December 1st, 2021 End Date December 19th, 2021 Participants 21 Gold juliosilva Silver africaboy Bronze Xarles Instructions In order to post your predictions, you have to do the following: Select with your mouse specified content of the Post named Prediction Contest Design Copy the selected content Go to Reply Box at the end of the Page, click on "Reply to this topic" Paste the copied content ( When information "You have pasted content with formatting" appears at the end of the Reply Box, ignore it, it will disappear eventually. DO NOT click on "Remove formatting" under any circumstances) Once you have specified content in new Post, start making your predictions according to the Rules To post your predictions, click on "Submit Reply" button Rules For this Prediction Contest you are predicting point difference for each match. To do that, you have to write in empty Cell a number - point difference for each match. If your prediction is that Nation 1 is going to win, you should type point difference in appropriate Cell of T1 Column. If your prediction is that Nation 2 is going to win, then type point difference in appropriate Cell of T2 Column. In case you think the match is going to end with a tie (draw), type 0 in any of the corresponding Cells. There cannot be 0 as point difference in the Quarterfinals, Semfinals and Medal Matches, and result after overtime will be counted as final result. Example Group A Date & Time (GMT +1) Nation 1 T1 T2 Nation 2 December 3rd 2021, h. 18:00 France 8 Angola Scoring System: Basic number of points is 10 If you predict right winner for a match or a draw, you will get 10 points regardless of the goal difference. If your prediction is perfect (correct winner + correct goal difference or a draw) you will earn 10+10 = 20 points. Depending on difference between your prediction and actual result, earned points will differ. Example Group A Date & Time (GMT +1) Nation 1 T1 T2 Nation 2 December 3rd 2021, h. 18:00 France 8 Angola If France wins by 8, you will earn 20 points [10 pts for correct winner + 10 pts for point difference: (10-(8-8))] If France wins by 3, you will earn 15 points [10 pts for correct winner + 5 pts for point difference: (10-(8-3))] If France wins by 19, you will earn 10 points [10 pts for correct winner + 0 pts for point difference: 10-(8-19) - no negative points] If Angola wins by 1, you will earn 1 point [0 pts for correct winner + 1 pts for point difference: (10-(8+1))] If Angola wins by 2 or more, you will earn 0 points [0 pts for correct winner + 0 pts for point difference: (10-(8+4))] Top 3 Prediction points will be awarded as follow: Correct Predicted 1st Place will be awarded 10 points Correct Predicted 2nd Place will be awarded 7,5 points Correct Predicted 3rd Place will be awarded 5 points Corrected Predicted Nation in Top 3, but wrong place will be awarded 2 points TB Rules If two or more contestants have the same number of points at the end, Tie-Break rule will be applied to break the tie. Number or perfect predictions throughout the contest will be compared for the involved contestants. If they are still tied, number of second best scores will be compared, then number of third best results and so on. Example Contestant 1: 3x20, 2x19, 2x18, 2x17 Contestant 2: 3x20, 2x19, 2x18, 1x17 Contestant 1 will be placed ahead of Contestant 2. Contestant with most points wins the competition. The Ranking is determined by the Sum of Points the Contestant scores in all predicted Matches and Top 3 Predictions. You can enter the Contest whenever you want.
