82 is the highest anyone scored in the last two weeks. You wouldn't have been able to pass me...and to be fair, that was after I skipped a week early on to let people keep up with me.

You will get points based off of these criteria: 2 Points - Correct Winning Team 5 Points - Within 5 Points Correct Score 10 Points - Correct Score Example You will use the format in the second post to guess the weekly fixtures.

Thanks for hosting this again this year,Mission! Looking forward to it A couple suggestions I have. I personally think it makes more sense to put emphasis on guessing the correct winning team than the score. With the current system, you can get only a few points for getting the winning team right, but a lot for points which is way too much luck-based. If it was me, what I would be doing is having people guess the winning team and by how much. For example: 5 points - correct winning team 5 points - team wins by exact margin that you guessed. 4 points - the margin you guessed was 1 off from what the actual margin was. 3 points if it was 2 off, 2pts if it was 3 off, and 1pt if it was 4 off. And you can only get points for the point differential if you get the winning team right first. Seahawks @ Rams: Seahawks win by 6 If the actual outcome is Seahawks 27-21, I get 10 pts because I got the winning team and the point margin right. If it's Seahawks 28-24, I get 8 points, because I got the winning team right for 5, and another 3 because the margin by which the Seahawks win (4) is two off of what I guessed (6). If it's Seahawks 24-13, I get 5 points for the winning team, but none for the point spread because the actual margin (11) is five off from what I guessed (6), and that's too far off. If it's Rams 27-21, I get no points, even though the point spread was right. I hope that kinda makes sense. That's how i would do it if it was up to me, but this is no pressure for you to change it I get why you like your way, and it'd probably be more tedious to score with my method Maybe it's ok to keep it like it is for the sake of continuity. Phew. All that aside, I'm really looking forward to doing this again, and maybe I can convince @goblizz to do it too thank you!
Posts updated @ChargerBoltz5 Added extra point for winning team and gave additional point extras Agreed about @goblizz Why not pre-season? I no teams look at depth, but its a bit like the pro bowl
Preseason usually is just teams feeling their way into the year, and just becomes a game of luck, rather than analysis and skill. As well, I forget how the scoring system for the points work. I remembered it being a margin, but I forget how exactly it works.
Slight Update I will not be including the Pre-Season in the Full total of points at the end of the season. But please still participate so we can test the new point system. Thanks
This is all guesswork seeing as it is for testing purposes Predicting preseason is like shooting fish in a barrel.
