Hello football fans! (line shamelessly ripped from KrazyKris' NFL Peehs intro...there might be more stolen content in here)

There will be 30 total questions; 19 spread out throughout the season, and then 11 for the end of the season. There will be 15 questions about teams, and 15 about individual players.

RESEARCH IS ALLOWED
Feel free to do as much reading as you want before your entry. Or as little as you want.

SCORING
This is PEEHS. The winner(s) will have the lowest total score after all 30 questions have been revealed. PEEHS rewards those of you that submit a correct answer that is guessed by as few entrants as possible.

If your answer is correct, you will get as many points as the number of people who said the answer.

Incorrects will be scored as (SHEEP score for that question) + (# of different correct answers submitted for that question).

Scoring twist: you will never be rewarded for an incorrect answer in my PEEHS, so if your answer would have scored more points if it was correct than incorrect, that's how many points you will get.

For example, if there are 3 correct answers given, and the SHEEP is worth 10, you would normally get 13 points for an incorrect answer. However, if 20 people said the incorrect answer you chose, you will get 20.

All other scoring as normal.

ENTRIES
Anyone can play; all I need from you is a PM with your entry. Please single-space your entry. Non-numbered is preferred, but as long as I can figure out what you're trying to do, I can probably work with it. Please use first and last names of players if applicable.

Entries close on Friday August 11th (11 August if you prefer), at kickoff of the opening game, which is scheduled to be Arsenal hosting Leicester at 7:45 pm local time, 2:45 pm USA east coast time, & 11:45 am JM3 Pacific Time.

Feel free to resubmit any time prior to opening kickoff. Optimal strategy might be to get an entry in early, then reconsider closer to the deadline. That way you don't forget to enter, but can still take into consideration the latest transfer window/injury news.

#1 - Name a team that will lose their opening game (most games August 12th).

G'luck, have fun, & if you have any questions feel free to ask here or via PM.

Thank you for doing this. It's been a few years since I followed the Premier League really closely; now I've got a new reason to get back into it. I'm bookmarking all the links.

Liverpool FTW.

Sending now.

Willing for side action as well.

Thanks in adv

Will be in this game with way below median PL knowledge.

Posting as a reminder to in later. NFL 1 is really good through the season and i'm sure this one will be too.

Oops, just realized two things...

#6 should say 5 or more road points, & I please provide 1st & last names if there is going to be any possible confusion at all.

Going to have an SE mod edit the OP.

Made requested edits.

Perfect, thanks tuq.

Might have to run a CHALLENGE PEEHS someday...

So the objective is to answer correctly but have a uniquely correct answer?

Yes, a perfect game would involve giving a correct answer to every question, and being the only one to say that answer.

It's better to give the most popular correct answer than a wrong answer, but how much depends on how many different correct answers are given.

How aggressive you want to go in terms of safe answers, answers you think other people might say, etc., is part of the strategy.

Ty ty

this is awesome, ty for running!

Anyone who fancies a £10 side pool lmk

Will in at some point. Would also be in for the side pool LO.

Would probably be in for side pool too.

If people who are betting money (or other stakes that involve things funnier than money) want to have their own little additional tables in the standings, just lmk.

Standard 2+2 betting disclaimer about how 2+2 is not responsible for people making bets & then losing & lol'ing & running away with your money.

tag for in later

Will definitely be in this, and probably side bets too

Same.

Same except definitely for both. Can escrow too

In!

in! should be fun!

In

in with a tiny bit more knowledge than when I entered the NFL peehs, but not much...

In, think most of my answers are unambiguous but let me know if any are
