Ok, first off there are 192 games in the year, and you bet between 1 and 192 on each one, using each number only once all year (the autoscorer adjusts re-used bets to the nearest unused bet). You want to have as many points as possible at the end of the year. Each game you get: 0 for a loss half your bet for a draw all of your bet for a win one quarter of your bet extra for each extra goal in the margin of difference. (ie, win 4-0 and you get 1.75 times your bet). So bet high when you are confident and low when you are not. Don't worry much about weekly scoring, you will never need to know how it works to play well. If you do care, we assign each game an expected score based on your bet. If you score more than expected, your performance is positive, otherwise it is negative. Then we add up your scores for each game. The expected score for each bet is bet/2 + bet*bet/500 . If you dont' get it, don't worry, it doesn't matter.
