Hard to tell at this point. I will set a poll after FIFA World Cup and let forum users decide whether they are interested in any of those events. Cause I wouldn't like to run a contest for a several people only.

This guy... He was fined for this with $15,000 Like that is going to have any effect on him

Day 12 Team 1 WIN1 TIE WIN2 Team 2 45 9 1 0 9 46 0 7 48 52 3 0

Still 8 points. You have 2-0 for England, so no correct goal difference nor correct number of goals for any of the teams which means - 2 points only.

48 teams will be a huge mess, so many walking bye teams. But at least New Zealand and Serbia would have almost secured spots so...

It is a mystery how even came to that. Poor qualifications for USA.

Totallympians trying to figure out Group H: Team 1 WIN1 TIE WIN2 Team 2 52 2 1 11 19 25 9 21 25

I know, and I understand your point of view and to be honest I agree with you. The problem is, people weren't too keen to discuss on this matter at the end of previous year because of obvious reasons. But now, when we finally have some order, I think we can discuss on scoring systems and finally have good one for the next year. This year I will mostly use the old systems except that I keep the right as a manager to adjust it a bit (like I did for Ice Hockey).

I think there is a room for that prediction contest.

When are the Championships scheduled?

Sure

You weren't that bad when you first joined the forum, I remember well. I think you already won one competition (or was among top 3) at the very first (or second) prediction contest I managed those

if you predicted A 4-0 B and it was A 0-4 B you get big fat zero if you predicted A 1-0 B but it was A 1-2 B at the end, you get that one point

I agree with you to be honest. That is why I took decision to at least adjust points for Ice Hockey prediction contests. Earlier, 5 points were awarded for correct winner and 5 points additionally for goal difference. That means, someone can predict right winner A but with goal difference 6 and gets 5 points only because Team A won by 1. Other participant predicts wrong winner, Team B but goal difference 1 in favor for Team B. He gets 3 points. That looked odd and wrong so I made 7 points as number of points for correct winner only. Better 7>3 than 5>3

PS And now you are #PP leader with 7 perfect predictions

Well, I asked more than a month ago if anyone had any suggestion on the scoring system here and the discussion was non-existent so I just applied the rules we were using since I can remember (circa 2012).

You predicted Mexico's win, the result was 2-1 so you have right number of goals for one team, but wrong goal difference (obviously not perfect score for 5 points) hence 3 pts. Then, the same applies for your Germany-Sweden match. Germany won 2-1 so you have right number of goals for Germany, hence 3 pts. For Belgium-Tunisia match you only have correct winner, and that is valued with 2 points only.
