Administrator Stan Posted February 25, 2018 Administrator Share Posted February 25, 2018 3 minutes ago, Cannabis said: I've an idea for the next edition. How about posting up five games all with an increasing level of difficulty to tip. 5 points for the hardest tip (ie - United/Chelsea) and 1 point for the easiest (ie - City/Wrexham) with obviously 4, 3 and 2 points awarded for the games inbetween. Might encourage people to tip tough games and take it easy/ take a risk as and when they need to based on the league table. @randiia3 @RandoEFC guessing that would entail a lot more work/time for Rando especially if you keep the rule that, as a competitor, you can't pick the same team twice. Would mean that the 5 games would have to be very carefully chosen as over time, someone who is still in the competition may run out of teams to choose from.

Subscriber Dan+ Posted February 25, 2018 Subscriber Share Posted February 25, 2018 I think that's far too much down to our own interpretation personally. The only way you can judge how hard a game is is by the odds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Into the third round go @RandoEFC @Dan @Bluewolf @Berserker @Smiley Culture @nudge @Eco @Azeem98 @Lucas. Good luck folks.

Lucas Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 I have a suggestion going forward in further competitions after this one is done. Personally I feel it is probably a bit too vast the way we select our teams at the moment. Perhaps we could keep them to specific countries so that next time we stick to England only and the 4 major leagues, then after that Germany, Italy, France, Spain etc That way it does offer a greater challenge plus you could do it almost like Grand Prix/Rugby Sevens style so that you gain points for each 'round' to ultimately win overall?

Yeah I think we'll rejig things in future. Another thought of mine is to instead of choose a match winner you have to choose a fixture for both teams to score, or an anytime goalscorer, or you have to pick a game which will be a draw, any of those would be much more challenging. I think it's gone okay so far though. The downside of including any game anywhere is that it's too easy to find a banker but after two rounds we've already lost 8 people out of the 17 that started.
