Bumping this to see if anyone is interested in joining if I set up a league.

Could only find one at the FIFA site.

I think you have to sign up to FIFA make an entry and then join the league.

Dumb question I guess, but do you fill out all the group games now, or can you do it day by day?

So a bunch of guys got four points today, I assume because we all picked Ecuador to win. But why did a couple get eight points? Because they predicted the score exactly right?

There was some kind of multiplier you could add to one game.

One game per day I think. Wouldn’t have thought it was in effect on the day where there was only one game.

I mean, if you get the pick wrong, do you get -8 points?

No. Just looked at the standings. Nobody has a negative score.

I think you get to pick one multiplier for each match day, not individual day.

As we all expected, the hard-core soccer guys are doing great in the World Cup predictor competition. Don’t forget to get your match day two picks in!

First, put in the score for each team, like you did in the group stage. After that is done, you will be able to predict which team scores first (drop-down table). After that is done, you can predict which player scores first (drop-down table.) Don’t forget to click the accelerator button on one game a day, which doubles your score on that game.

I’m pretty pleased to be in second place right now among all the swampers, considering I’m not “a soccer guy.”
