6th on points.

OP - Question RULES SECTION 7

how does the margin credit (3 points) work for a draw..? i.e. if you have a margin of none
(as opposed to a draw as a correct result (2 pts) ?

Well spotted Sheriff - wondered who would spot that. You get the 3 points as the margin is the better scoring result.

Basically it is only possible to get 2 points on wins/losses

So on that basis - I made it I should be on 19 points...not 17

Is that right...?

The 'Predictions' column is a count of the number of predictions each person has made. It was asked for by someone (can't remember who).

The idea behind showing how many predictions everyone has made, is people can see whether predicting on everything is more profitable than being selective.

You actually have 13 points this week with one more game to go.

13...? confused.... where am I going wrong then..

I put what I thought my winnings were against each games here either (+/-) including stake back


Arsenal v Sunderland Prem 1-1 - +4c
Everton v Manchester United Prem 1-1 (to play)
Newcastle United v Tottenham Hotspur Prem 2-1 +6c
Queens Park Rangers v Swansea City Prem 2-2 -1c
Reading v Stoke City Prem 0-0 +4c
West Bromwich Albion v Liverpool Prem 1-2 -1c
Wigan Athletic v Chelsea Prem 0-2 +6c
Burnley v Bolton Champ 1-2 -1pt
Ipswich v Blackburn Champ 3-1 -1c
Leeds v Wolves Champ 2-0 +3c
Chelsea v Reading Prem 2-0 to play

11credits staked - Total (+19)

& surely there's two games to go (or are you counting Chelsea in another week

Sorry - if i'm being dim

Sheriff - don't apologise mate - this thread is for me to sort out queries and I am more than happy to do so

Ignore Chelsea v Reading as it will be scored in Week 3 where it was originally being played.

You are basically getting the stake credit back twice the way you have calculated it. You staked 10 creds in week 1. You have got back 23 so far (add up your returns) = 13 credits. The 23 returns includes your original stake already!!!

sussed it (19 - 11 + 5 bonus) =13

so looking at your explanation - have I put 2 & 2 together & made a different 4

13 now works if I think -11 credits used for 11 games made 19 on them so far, giving me +8 & then add my bonus of 5

Yes you have - you are confusing me now

The bonus credits in the first table are paid at the end of each 4 week period. It is a changing table until all the week 4 matches have been played. It will then change to Week5-8 and so on.

You have staked 10 credits in Week 1.

You got 23 back so far.

Righto

I'll study that & sort my self out

Got it...

Updated after all Week 1 results.

Get your week 2 preds in and Chelsea v Reading.

Back of the net
