After a great win, we have some happy predictors here. Both tidus_mi2 and Number_13 hit the Exact Final Score, and RoyalPITA and Luke hit the exact Bonus. Blackman's goal was a winner for 9 predictors and the Bonus paid off for 8. Unfortunately, Williams' header avoided all the predictors, as well as the Boro keeper - but we'll take it anyway! Gwent Royal - 2 * ( 5 [Correct winner, wrong goal difference] + 5 [Half-time score] + 5 [Scorer - Blackman] + 5 [Bonus] ) = 2 * 20 = 40 Owlish52 - 2 * ( 5 [Correct winner, wrong goal difference] + 5 [Half-time score] + 5 [Scorer - Blackman] + 5 [Bonus] ) = 2 * 20 = 40 RoyalPITA - 2 * ( 5 [Correct winner, wrong goal difference] + 5 [Half-time score] + 5 [Scorer - Blackman] + 5 [Bonus] ) = 2 * 20 = 40 tidus_mi2 - 2 * ( 10 [Exact Final Score] + 5 [Half-time score] + 5 [Scorer - Blackman] ) = 2 * 20 = 40 Camb-Royal - 2 * ( 5 [Correct winner, wrong goal difference] + 5 [Half-time score] + 5 [Scorer - Blackman] ) = 2 * 15 = 30 Darlington - 2 * ( 1 [Entry] + 5 [Half-time score] + 5 [Scorer - Blackman] ) = 2 * 11 = 22 Bahamoth - 2 * ( 5 [Correct winner, wrong goal difference] + 5 [Scorer - Blackman] ) = 2 * 10 = 20 Clyde1998 - 2 * ( 5 [Correct winner, wrong goal difference] + 5 [Scorer - Blackman] ) = 2 * 10 = 20 daib0 - 2 * ( 5 [Correct winner, wrong goal difference] + 5 [Bonus] ) = 2 * 10 = 20 Luke - 2 * ( 5 [Correct winner, wrong goal difference] + 5 [Bonus] ) = 2 * 10 = 20 mason1871rfc - 2 * ( 5 [Correct winner, wrong goal difference] + 5 [Bonus] ) = 2 * 10 = 20 Number_13 - 2 * ( 10 [Exact Final Score ) = 2 * 10 = 20 Foxxinator - 2 * ( 1 [Entry] + 5 [Bonus] ) = 2 * 6 = 12 Royal Crisp - 2 * ( 1 [Entry] + 5 [Scorer - Blackman] ) = 2 * 6 = 12 Tilehurstsouthbank - 2 * ( 1 [Entry] + 5 [Bonus] ) = 2 * 6 = 12 cribsie - 2 * 5 [Correct winner, wrong goal difference] = 10 RoyalJoe - 2 * 5 [Correct winner, wrong goal difference] = 10 And the Royals Rendezvous Prediction Game Table now looks like: RoyalPITA - 262 Owlish52 - 230 tidus_mi2 - 198 Camb-Royal - 197 mason1871rfc - 196 Bahamoth - 191 Gwent Royal - 188 Clyde1998 - 171 Number_13 - 162 Darlington - 160 Zip - 159 daib0 - 152 Foxxinator - 126 RoyalJoe - 118 Luke - 115 Tilehurstsouthbank - 110 cribsie - 102 Royal Crisp - 91 Halifordroyal - 10 With 5 predictors within 10 points, it is as crowded as the Championship table here after 10 League matches. |

Yay, good points this week. Wasn't too keen on the penalty, knew that was points slipping away!

Look at it this way - you swapped the 10 points from an exact call (1-0 result you predicted) for the five points from an incorrect goal difference plus the 5 points for Blackman scoring, totaling ten points - no harm taken! But if you're like me, you'd have rather the score went to 2-0 a bit earlier (like 70 minutes or so earlier ) so you could have relaxed during that Royals win!

I'm winning more points but still struggling to get up the table. Need to predict better goalscorers me thinks! |

Note that suggestions for Bonus Questions are welcome - I tend to try to go with things like number of shots or cards, because I think they can be a bit predictable, while the timing of a card or a goal is, to me, much more random. Your thoughts and suggestions on the Bonus Questions are appreciated! |

Corners, free kicks, fouls, possession. Team squad numbers total what? (Prob better for the opposition!)Passes completed by individual players. Saves made by goalkeepers Goal kicks in a game?
