MLS WPL Week #26

Jahiegel puts in another masterful performance this week, and grows his lead with a Weekly Cup triumph.
He got every game right and had a big bonus win with road Seattle and a sweet low roll in Philadelphia.
The pack has to hope his absence of remaining low bets will create an opening.
dred just edges out Geneva for second, thanks to a money ball in San Jose and a fat Montreal paycheck. Geneva supersizes, using every bet from 234 to 244, and skips two spots to #11 despite Chivas woes.
petezuke17 goes nuts with LA, San Jose, and Montreal, while Mucky inches up to #5 thanks to Seattle and Montreal confidence.
ceezmad blows the doors off the Play of the Week with a moneyball at Chivas.
Beware of midweek games.
*Remaining bets embedded in post.*

No, I forgot to make a 2nd post for it. I'll do that tonight. *Misses old Bigsoccer*

 

Unlikely.

When doing the commentary, I made the lazy move of reading the bets from the web page instead of from the processed XML. Obviously that has no effect on the autoscorer, which is never lazy (though often cruel).

The best way for players to verify their results is to double check their weekly points total against their bets. I encourage people to do this periodically. (Of course, folks have to remember that just because they wrote down a bet doesn't mean that amount was still available.)

 

Ah, ok.

First off: ignore "perf", just look at the "Won" column, that's how many points you got for your bets.

Then for each game, if you bet X give yourself:
X points for a win
X/2 points for draw
0 for a loss
X/4 for every bonus goal your team won by

the total should equal your "Won" column (assuming you used bets you actually had available).

It's usually pretty simple to add up 10 games or so.

 

Yes'm.
