Winston, as Mike said you got one point because your predicted group winner finished second. Predicting the correct group winner gives 3 points.

You get 10 points for the world champion or 3 points if your predicted champion loses the final. You get 6 points for the top scorer or 2 points if your predicted top scorer finishes second.

Ecthy · June 11, 2002, 16:11

Paul, so I get 3 points for Germany being group winner?

Paul · June 11, 2002, 16:11

SD, you're right. I changed it in the spreadsheet and you now have 51 points in 7th place.

Yes, you got 3 points for that.

Thanks for the answers Paul. That explains it all then.

Were you afraid of us?

Wow! I'm afraid of German, not only because I think that Germany is always Germany but also because I also like Germany and I don't want Spain or Germany out of the World Cup.

I thinked that Germany was worse than they are. For example, I predicted Ireland 2-Germany 1. I'm glad I were wrong...

Ecthy · June 11, 2002, 20:14

shut up. we meet south afirca, you guys meet ireland

Winston · June 11, 2002, 20:20

Go to bed Andy. You're too grumpy this time of the night.

Ecthy · June 11, 2002, 20:24

No way.

I slept up to 4 hours in the afternoon, I'm not tired.

Yes, but that penalty made up for the dubious penalty given in Senegal's favour which gave them their first goal. In fact, all things being fair, it could be argued that the result should've been Senegal 1 Uruguay 2!

SVÄÄÄÄRJE!!!!

Goddamn!! Hedman and Jakobsson played like gods!! Anders Svenssons free kick was awesome also!!!

moomin · June 12, 2002, 04:28

Svärje sög. Argentina sög värre.

Zoid · June 12, 2002, 04:33

Fan, mumin. Det är du som skall vara nationalisten här...

You gotta admit we played brilliantly in the defence even if we didn´t play very well on the attack. It´s pretty typical that our goal came on a free kick. But still...

Juggernaut · June 12, 2002, 04:44

Mumin suger.

Shouldn´t that be you suck? (in singular...)

OneFootInTheGrave · June 12, 2002, 05:00

Well done England

and I feel a little sorry for Argentinians.. but well someone has to go out. Erikson must be the happiest one. His home team is top of the group so he doesn't spoil the fun for his family, and the English go trough as well...

By the way from 31 to 9th place in two days

luck is bound to turn around...

Mwuhahahahahaaaaaa......

No points in the group of death this time, but still nr. 1.

Mwuhahahahaha.

By bye South Africa...
