Did you forget to change the position column?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
No. I am using a brand new spreadsheet which has been completely revamped and has a few items still to do. But I knew you would be first on the case today before I went out so posted so as not to disappoint you.

I have not bumped it up the site so far till I sort it out.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

I made a few changes to the Scottish one for this season to make it easier for me to manage

So far I have spent more time managing the spreadsheet and code than if I had left it alone
----------------------------------------------------------------------
With plenty of time on my hands these days I like to try different layouts on my spreadsheet.
I have recently had some terrific help from Emkriti who plays KOP and has given me some new methods of calculating totals ...very quickly. So that is why I am reorganising my spreadsheet.

I meant to enter your Scottish pred game seeing that you raided the KOP last season but I forgot the early weeks . I could always try chasing up the table from the bottom

You’d easily catch the ones at the bottom

I switched the scoring to match yours. It was previously only 5,4 and 3

Now it makes for better reward for correct score

There are around 7 or so double pointers weeks PLUS you have 2 jokers to even DOUBLE a double pointer set.. With lots of weeks to come etc it is worth a shot to see how far you can get up the table.

Dave, just out of curiosity is your monthly table on a spreadsheet?

My spreadsheet has the entrants along the top with all the headings (predictions, points this round etc) and the fixtures for every set down the left side. As long as the points are entered correctly, the tab at the top (insert) is opened and after highlighting all the relevant boxes using my mouse it automatically adds the points, thus no mistakes.

I still have to copy and paste the updated league tables though, using the JA606 table format. Takes roughly an hour to manually do it that way.

Wolfie I have always wondered how you collected the entries and took out the teams and just use the score.
Do you have to re enter each one as a score?

Do you also have to enter the individual points for every scoring pred so they get added together

I collect the CODES by copy/paste straight to a fans column (10 secs for each one)
Scoring for ALL fans can now be done in 5 mins now that I have a super calculator (from Emkriti )

All my tables are produced automatically for monthly, main table. Bonus points are added automatically once I put them on.

It depends how much you are familiar with spreadsheets etc.

My first decent week and I still get shafted by 5 points in the H2H

I copy and paste the fixtures from the BBC Sports website and edit them accordingly. On my spreadsheet I use column A for the matches i.e.
MNU v WOL and so on down the left side and add total, using 11 boxes. When the matches are finished I add the score...MNU v WOL 1-1 in the A column.

All of the participants are along the top using 8 boxes for each one.. ID, Pre. Pts T/R, C/R, jks, Pts, Bon Pts, Total pts. I then manually enter the points for each match. Then use the 'insert' box, select 'sum' after highlighting, dragging all boxes and it adds the totals automatically.

Then comes the hard part by copying and pasting the last table, creating a new article and manually correcting it according to the info on the spreadsheet.

If you have of a quicker way to automatically update the table, I'd be happy to try it.

You did quite well out of them with the 7th highest set score
Moi was 33rd So I hate them (this time)

By the way Juke, you are 1st reserves team for the 1st Round of H2HKo if anyone misses entry. !!

Not as much as I hate the Championship games

As PSD said at the start of the season with 3 teams coming down to it and 3 coming up along with being a league where everyone takes points off everyone then it is so hard to consistently predict

Plus... League Cup games are used by Prem teams to give their reserves a run out especially in the early rounds till it gets to the business end of last 8 teams.
