"Official" BigSoccer EPL Prediction League

[Treetaliano]

If any of you guys played last year...then you remember how much a pain in the ass it was, cuz whoever it was keeping score would mess up the scores etc...

so I took it upon myself to design a "site" to take care of all that for us...so we can play and not have any errors...

anyways, here is the link.

Have fun with it

http://sf1000.registeredsite.com/~user965740/eplgame/

I would also suggest you bookmark if it you do play..it has the wierd URL by design

[Treetaliano]

responding to myself here... :D

Just noticed that Splargy himself posted something similar to this in the other forum which I missed.

Mods feel free to move this over there, but I think this will get more visibilty here for a the time being...


Brian, check your PM's

A mod should make this thread sticky, for anyone who wants to join later.

[whirlwind]

Nicely done, Tree.... I'm in...

[paulo]

nice job on the website - I am so geeked for this season.

[Treetaliano]

cool...35 ppl already in, in less than 2 days...

sticky? nah...Huss should just make it a link on the front page :D

j/k hope you guys enjoy it..i quit last years game cuz it was too hard to keep up, hope this is simpler

[ripmstr]

Great stuff, I'm in...

[Treetaliano]

as Clanblue pointed something out...the scoring system has changed a tad. if you've already signed up you should go read the scoring system again to be up to date

[daniel19]

I'm in. Do the fixtures for Sunday and Monday go up after the games have been played on Saturday?

[maloner]

for the first 2 weeks...everyone can choose up until 5am GMT, midnight Saturday on the 16th

for example

first 2 rounds weeks of the season, those to be played between the 16th and 23rd need to be slected by Saturday Aug 16th

then

the 3rd round of matches, those to be played between the 24th and 31st, need to be submitted between the 17th and the 23rd.

and so on...

each new round will appear on Saturday.

hope that makes sense

Moved and stuck

[Treetaliano]

Just incase you who signed up dont check your PM's...

I overlooked something, and had to make a change in the selection of the predictions and scheduling of the first 2 weeks.

This was done to allow users to make predictions until the very first match day of the season.

All matches to be played on the 16th are due by 5am GMT that morning, however since there are also matches that are to be played between the 17th and 23rd, that would allow only one day to choose those.

In order to allow ample time to choose the matches between the 17th and 23rd, you'll need to log back in, and also make those selection. Your prior selections will still show.

Apologies for the oversight, and promise there wont be anymore hitches :D

Cheers
-Tree

np...I was going to do this last year as well, but since I was a newbie then, no one would have taken me seriously :D

We've got 52 ppl joined so far with 10 days left until kickoff so hopefully we'll have a large number of participants somewhat like the MLS game

[1800-WorldCup]

Nice work.

[babytiger2001]

I'm in, Tree.

Can't wait to get started. And great work with the site and the graphics, too. Very easy on the eyes.

Now with my location being what it is, if I can keep the deadline times correct, I think I should do pretty well in this competition. :D

And I might get a couple of my Aussie mates of the online geek variety involved in this, too. :)

I sorry to quibble Tree, but this doesn't make sense.

We shouldn't have to make our picks for the 23rd until that week -- AFTER all the matches for the 16th & 17th have been played. There could be key injuries or suspensions in one week that would affect the next.

You need to set it up so it's by ROUND, not by date. There are rounds during the midweek at different points in the season and we shouldn't have to pick those until Monday or Tuesday after the weekend previous is finished.

I'm in too.

I agree with kevbrunton. This should be by round and not every two weeks.
