Me and Badgerboy will be dissapointed with 6 and 5 points respectively.

It's early days yet. For now badgerboy is more disappointed with your maths.

I believe you may have forgotten the vital two points I obtained by correctly predicting the score at Goodison. So my points should be an unspectacular 7 - still better than 5 though....

Edit: I would say you've just forgotten (or abolished?) correct score points entirely - as you haven't given yourself any either. But then I think righteous1 has either 9 pts (no correct score points) or 13 (points for Derby-Portsmouth & A. Villa-Liverpool).

Edit 2 - Badgerboy's "alternative guide" to the scores on the doors:

righteous1 13
Steve31 12
Rotku 10
Richie 9
Stephen 8
badgerboy 7
subhankar mondal 7

I'm off the bottom on alphabetic order!

Seriously though I would suggest people check their own scores as well. I'm just as likely to be wrong as Stephen - well nearly

You have to expect some early teething problems and lets be fair, i have been in the middle of working out the total's whilst still in work, thankfully, you have volunteered to be our score checker . Cheers for that lad.

Oh and, "cough, cough", with the bonus correct score points, your score increased, an invalid statistic really as mine did too, but i invented the scoring system i cant get right yet. I just want to get home from work tomorrow, clear my head with a few cans of lager and get my sums right, after this total as been added, i should be then topping the leaderboard myself . .

Just one final note. If for some reason or another, anyone of us can not make predictions at a weekend or midweek, your previous weeks predictions would just follow on in identical sequence so at least we would gain the opportunity to gain the odd point or three or just fluke a massive points total.

See badgerboy, it pays off to predict difficult draws

I got most of my points from one too. But that doesn't change my mind about the points system being unbalanced.
To me it's not any more or less "difficult" to predict a Man City win over Man Utd for example than a Liverpool draw with Chelsea. It means winning the competition can be more about "luck" than "good predictions".

But you're the one that can be bothered running the game every week - I can't even be arsed checking the scores already (except my own) - so this is the last time I'll comment on the subject.

Well maybe "last" is a bit excessive. "Never say never"

Doh! I should have been in the gambling business.

But it might adversly affect my enjoyment of the game. I already get too excited without having my daily bread on the line, would become a total nutcase if it were so.
