Hi lads, for a bit of craic we might do a predictions competition for the NFL? - Correct Result = One Point - Correct Winning Margin = 3 Points - Draw Prediction = 5 Points Open to suggestion on the scoring system. Predictions must be entered by 6pm Fridays. The winner at the end will receive an all expenses trip to eastern Ukraine. Lockjaw (Donegal) - Posts: 9136 - 24/01/2022 12:22:02 2396186 Link

Sounds good. Think swap the winning margin and draw points though. 3 for a draw, 5 for the margin. Just my opinion. TheRock2121 (Donegal) - Posts: 1142 - 24/01/2022 14:09:43 2396221 Link

So one point for getting the result right, 3 points if you predict a draw and 5 points for getting the winning margin exactly right. Lockjaw (Donegal) - Posts: 9136 - 24/01/2022 15:06:02 2396234 Link
Replying To Lockjaw: "Aye that's probably better. So one point for getting the result right, 3 points if you predict a draw and 5 points for getting the winning margin exactly right." How about adding bonus points if you predict a draw and get the total points scored correct? Something like the following: Correct Result (Home or Away) - 1 point Correct Result (Draw) - 3 points Correct Result (Home or Away) and Correct Winning Margin - 5 points Correct Result (Draw)) and Correct Number of Total Points Scored - 5 points.

Good idea lockjaw, but I think you need to clarify for posters like nobull that your joking about the trip to Ukraine. Royal.Legend (Meath) - Posts: 665 - 24/01/2022 15:37:18 2396248 Link

Replying To TheRock2121: "It's a good idea. Lockjaw your call on points." We'll keep it simple and go with the system you suggested. I must try & knock together a tracker on Excel today if I get the time. Whatever names make predictions before 6pm Friday will get added. I'll also contact my good friend Oleg in Donetsk to ensure he has everything in place for the winner :-) Lockjaw (Donegal) - Posts: 9136 - 25/01/2022 10:48:45 2396325 Link
