Cross advertising Gabe's Euro's game (on POG)
Quote:
The UEFA Euro 2016 will kick off on June 10th, 2016 in France. 24 teams will battle for the title of European Champion in a tournament of 51 matches.
During the tournament I will be running a game: the Euro 2016 Soccer Pool, where players will be able to test their prediction skills. You will have to try and predict the half time and full time results of all 51 matches, as well as the teams that advance through the group stages and elimination rounds.
There will be daily updates available providing the day and total running scores. We will be playing for bragging rights only. There will not be a signup fee or prizes, but feel free to organize your own side bets, subgames (POG vs SE?) and whatnot.
Who can play?

Points to be gained
NOTE: the match results for the elimination rounds (matches 37-51) will be scored independently of who the home team or visitors are. For example if you have guessed Italy-Czech Republic for game 43 and a 0-0,1-1 result, this result 0-0,1-1 will be used also if this match ends up being e.g. Sweden Spain.
- For the 51 game matches: 1 point for a correct half time result, 3 points for the correct final result. If you misguess the final result, but have the correct winner/draw, you get 1 point. [MAXIMUM = 51×4=204 points]
- Group Winners: 1 point for every correctly placed team in 1st, 2nd or 3rd place. [MAXIMUM = 6×3=18 points]
- Round of 16: 1 point for every correct team in the Round of 16 . [MAXIMUM = 16×1=16 points]. MOD NOTE: The rules for third place are mildly complicated. Check them out in the articles 17.02 and 17.03 of the official UEFA Rules.
- Quarterfinalists: 3 points for every correct Quarterfinalist [MAXIMUM = 8×3=24 points]
- Semifinalists: 5 points for every correct Semifinalist [MAXIMUM = 4×5=20 points]
- Finalists: 8 points for every correct Finalist [MAXIMUM = 2×8=16 points]
- 10 points for correct Runner-Up
- 15 points for the correct European Champion
NOTE: the match results for the elimination rounds (matches 37-51) will be scored independently of who the home team or visitors are. For example if you have guessed Italy-Czech Republic for game 43 and a 0-0,1-1 result, this result 0-0,1-1 will be used also if this match ends up being e.g. Sweden Spain.

I'm back from quite a lovely vacation. I bravely wore my Spurs shirt on Thursday. Got 2-3 go Spurs chants, 2-3 Euro sounding "Hey, a Spurs shirt" comments, and only one person sang "it happened again" at me. EPL fanhood is riding high here in USA#1. Here's me and my mate in front of hogwarts.

I bought it right after I decided to support Spurs so unfortunately it's blank at the back. I'm keen to buy another one tho. I think the AIA sponsor logo is pretty sexy. Deciding between Kane/Alli/Ericksen etc may prove difficult.
