Common sense would suggest a prediction contest-like contest falls under prediction contests

Right, finished my shower. Missed anything?

And it's the Tour de France, which at least here in the Netherlands is like the main event of prediction contests and pools and whatnot, so yeah I'm in

It's rather late, but if I would do something, I'd do it in a different way. More simple, like this: for every stage you select X riders (let's say 3), and depending on their positions you get points (5 if one of your riders wins the stage, 3 for second or third place, 1 for fourth or fifth place for example). Same thing with GC: choose X riders and get points for their final position. Nothing too complicated like stuff where a rider finishing 2nd is more favorable than a rider finishing 1st, because you predicted 2nd place. Example: stage 1, I pick Sagan, Valverde and Anquetil. Anquetil wins (5 points), Sagan finishes 4th (1 point), Valverde finishes 7th (0 points) --> 6 points

Amen.

I think the 1 point is for predicting 1 goal for Spain

The fuck is that bullshit? Changing the rules after teams qualified?

'Correct result' --> 1 X 2 result

Much like France against Argentina, Spain did not want to win

Every team I dislike is going out and every team I like or am neutral to goes through, best World Cup ever

Someone who got 0 points for correct result

Epic footsave

Yeaaaah Akinfeev

Vamoooooos

The ever annoying Iniesta hits.

I'll save this quote for in 2022

"Spain won 5 of their 8 penalty shootouts." Yeah, because it so matters for your current chances if a team 45 years ago won a penalty shootout

Well yeah, they're doing nothing for half the time, nothing wrong with adding that time.

The rollerskis are back in Brazil so shut up

Well yes, of course never before has a 4th substitute been made in this extra time. There has also never been a goal scored in this extra time

No. Beware of fake emails looking like they came from your bank though.

Especially the black magic is strong

Today I learned there's a spearfishing World Cup for clubs.

Cue Cuevas will make his debut? I was convinced he would have had multiple participations by now, his name is familiar

Andy Murray has withdrawn.
