Scoring system:
-In group stage: 2 pts for getting right who wins; 3 pts for getting right how many goals the difference is; 4 points for getting the complete score correct. (note: draw games always have 0 goal difference, so a correct draw is always at least 3 points).
-For final result: 3 points for each team you correctly put in quarter finals; another 3 pts for each team you correctly put in semi finals; then another 3 for finals and finally another 3 if you got the cup winner right. (So, if you predict Germany for cup winner and they do win the cup, you'll get: 3pts for Germany reaching Quarter finals, 3pts for Germany reaching semi; 3pts for Germany reaching final and another 3pts for Germany winning the final=12pts).
Rules:
-Sign ups closed.
-Prize is as title says: a copy of WMD. Will be purchased as soon as the store allows it to be purchased (Release date is late 2016..). Can't be exchanged for a crash prize or whatever.
-Changes can be made, but only before the cup begins. Not nemore after.
Attachments: predictions. In the 'list' file you can see the predictions as submitted, in the 'matches' file you can see the predictions sorted for each individual match.

*shameless bump*

Will get it done before the 10th!
-
Done!! I haven't made a copy of my predictions, will you post them once the tournament started?
-
Done!! I haven't made a copy of my predictions, will you post them once the tournament started?
Or you can just check your outbox xdd
Anyway it would be nice to see the all the predictions after it starts.
I'll try my luck aswell, afai remember I won the WC prediction game 8)
EDIT: * It's RomAnia ! xd
-
Yes, I will publish all predictions @ deadline.
Dunno yet though how.. perhaps a table or something, although that might be tricky. I'll see.
I sent yours back kai, so you have a copy already.
2nd time I have to fix "Romania" for spelling lol
8 players signed up already. 3 days to go.
-
Gonna participate as well. Here's a better image including ko stage:

If I understand right, we have to send you results of all matches now (so in the list of players are players who have already sent their all predictions, including the final results?). We can't send you first round and send rest of our predictions later, can we?
P.S. What's WMD?
edit: oh, I started reading your message from the end, and now (after read 'How to enter?') I answered for my own questions. But still, what's WMD?
I like the idea, gonna take a part if I find time.

You predict match results for the group stage. For quarterfinals/semis/finals, you only type the countries which you think will qualify.
Here's a thread about Worms WMD in case you haven't seen it: https://www.tus-wa.com/forums/other-worms-games/team17-has-announced-worms-wmd-27422/
-
ae, you complete the entire form before the first match begins.
Otherwise maybe half the players drop out when they think they have become chanceless.
-
One and a half day to go, get ready ppl 8)
-
This means that you think Italy wins the cup, you think Spain will lose in the final. You also believe that Germany and Netherlands will reach semi-finals and lose there. And finally that Portugal, Switzerland, Ireland and France will be the losing teams in the quarter finals.
Yeah... Maybe on pes or fifa :D You guys f@#!ed it up big time this year.
Anyway, nice gesture with WMD copy, HHC. Just sent my predictions.
-
HHC betting on who will get to the finals and who will win, it's like shooting at Russian roulette. The same result typing (example: 3:2) is very luck. I doubt if even one person will select the winner in the semi-finals.
-
Johny, in case you're confused, word prediction (https://www.vocabulary.com/dictionary/prediction) does have a meaning.
-
i know johny, thats why you should never bet on sports for money. And if you do, only on obscure matches of which the odds are way off.
Anyhow, pretty sure quite a few people will have at least 50% of the semi finalists correct. Unless it's another Greece wins cup, but I doubt it :O
-
you should never bet on sports for money
???
-
Even if no one is close, there will still be someone who is closest, so what's the problem?
-
welcome uzur :)
13 in, looks like we're heading for 16-18 participants.
-
aww im too lazy to predict ALL results BEFORE uero begins
would be better to allow predictions before each match
and give few points for the right guess
and sum it all at the end
-
When sign up is closed will you show predictions of players?
-

u can make it here http://europredictor.uefa.com/match/yourpredictions/1
register, win prizes, etc :)
-
uh, its too much work to fill in a form in 5 mins, but not too much work to log in to a website before every single match to give your predictions? lol :D
I'm actually doing it like this so that you're done in a short bit of time and don't have to worry about deadlines and stuff anymore after.
@Maciej: yes. Putting it all in a notepad file as we speak. I will also post all predictions for the day's matches here on the forum + results/standings when the matches are done.
-
The only thing that takes a bit more time is to see how the teams will advance in the ko-s based on your group match predictions.
+ to determinate the winners of those matches + winners in quarters, semis and final.
-
uh, its too much work to fill in a form in 5 mins, but not too much work to log in to a website before every single match to give your predictions?
Yes, exactly
Im not using random number generator to predict the scores, right? when I do my bets I always analyze the squad, the mood, the ins and outs. If you expect me to do all the bets in 5 mins, im not sure if you're serious at all. Log in to a website is another story, it takes me a click with autologging and shortkeys
-
It's up to you how much time you put into it. Not every1 in here is as obsessed about sports betting as you. You can do as you please. I think most people spent about 10-20 mins on this, not much more. It's what you want it to be. You can put in a lot of effort or just do a quick guess to get a chance at the prize.

Yeah, figured out it would take way too much time to concetrate, so just did it in less than 10 minutes haha :)
There will be some major mistakes in my predictions.

Lol @ you if you do this any day other than matchday
which isn't the format of this football pool
but thanks for sharing your amazing methods
-
I only bet that gipsies will f@#! frog-eater at very start of euro, then poland will draw with ireland, loose with german, and draw with ukraine

France vs Romenia:

-

after what Romania manager said I think it's gonna be a 0-0 borefest
-
Gj with your first 4 pts Senator. :D
-
gj with ur first and last points senator
-
:)
-
aeee, Senator got it all right. Kai goes in 2nd now cause goal-difference correct. Rest in 3rd place with 2 points. No real damage done. Except to Kinslayer's bank account, but it was obvious that was gonna happen ;]

Feel free to go back to hungry.

Can I ask You my friend to write ur predictions here? We can compare after it is done, and then we will talk 8)
-
Check the opening post of the topic...
-
Kins, this is probably only amusing thread on TUS that doesn't involve drama. Pls don't spam it, you're late to play the game.
Btw, HHC:
Standings:
1.Senator 4pts
2.Anubis 3pts
You sure that Anubis deserved 3pts? I mean, Senator is the only one who got the right score, and he's just 1 pt ahead of anubis who predicted 1-0? Goal difference shouldn't affect that much.
Maybe give anubis 2, and to us that predicted 2:0 give 1pt.. Leave senator with 4, it's deserved!
-
no football without drama ;D
btw, you can check the predictions for the entire tournament in the notepad files attached to the opening post.
edit: sensei: best to stick to system, its gonna be chaos when I change rules underway :-[ Besides I think it's decent, ppl should be awarded first and foremost about predicting winner/loser. It's a bit of a gamble after. The right score is already worth two normal victories.
Looks like Kaibania is gonna need the 3 neway, same with senator, cause it looks like easy suisse win :-[
-
Ideally, instead of goal difference, it should be goals difference from real result. In the case of a 2-1, a 2-0 is closer to the real result than 1-0, because you need to change 1 goal only in the first but 2 goals in the second. But I think that's too confusing, specially since it should only work when you also predict the winning team or if it's a draw, a draw. Because imagine someone put 2-2. All in all, I think the goal difference rule whilst not perfect, is the most effective and the rules were written before it all started, so we can theorycraft but should be happy to comply with the way it works.
@Kins, those are all 15/1 ish odds XD
-
Urgh, I should have predicted more draws!
-
Yeah. i don't think 2-0 is closer to 2-1 than 1-0 though. Goal difference reflects the strength of the teams. France was 1 goal better than Rumania, that's how I see it. Anubis did predict better the difference in strength between the two teams.
Ryan: in my previous fantasy games I always thought draws were overrated, they seem to occur less often. It seems better to predict a small win in all games, for the strongest team. Let's see how well draws perform here, that 3pt could restore the balance.
-
Husk and Barman teamed up for predictions?
Haha
-

you're thinking of two leg eliminations systems
imagine the game: 20-19
a 20-18 prediction and a 1-0 prediction, who made the better prediction?
-

1-0 is the better prediction.
-
it was a rhetoric question...
given the 20-19 game and the two predictions 20-18 and 1-0
if you place a bet for 1-0, the moment they're 1-1 0-1 or 2-0 you win nothing and those are the only next possible outcomes to 1-0, basically, the more the game evolves into the final result the quicker you lose
if you place a bet for 20-18 you can cash in at any point until the very end. Why? Because it's a closer prediction, and because it's closer to the real result you can get incremental money at any point the closer it gets
if you want to think of prediction as a game of betting, the rules are clear
disclaimer: i already said that the goal difference is a better system for this particular gimmick, however, it's not the theoretical best.
-
I see what you are saying, but in this sort of predictions game I would agree that if the score is 2-1, then 1-0 was a better prediction than 2-0. (Again, not talking about general sports-betting which is different because it involves actual odds.)
-
regarding kins vs aerox debate: 1-0 was the better prediction :D
gg thar
Now wales vs Slovakia.
-
1-1 like a boss!! 😎😎
-
Ae, well done. Csong gonna be sleeping as leader after day 2 8)
Senator, nightmares.

„Frendly” hello from supporters of Lech Poznan from their trip to France – during which they met fans from Russia:
First hooligans Lech commute to France already tonight. For now, in the strength of one car in four person. Arriving at the French border is a „girl # from Russia. We offer them 4vs4 but probably miscalculated, trying to immediately us to enter. Three of them died after a good number of shots, the last bastował and gave the shirt. The car did not have anything. We greet all the occupants Euro and other spectators who were traveling on the road and to greet us even though other colors. Let’s show how we play, France is to be red and white! Ouch!

is it that hard to write Romania ? XD
-
hhc, maybe it would look better if you put all prediction stats in 1st post, not just today/yesterday!?

Why did you post it here? Polish courage is limited to photos. In real life their attempt to put a foot on a russian t-shirt would have turned to shameful flight like english one the day before.
-
senator can you hear me?
England-Russia could have been 2-0 after first half.. 0-0 prediction was b*llshit ;D
-
After 90 minutes in England v Russia, I was sitting smugly on my settee because I was on the verge of 4/4 correct (WDL) predictions. But when the final whistle blew, something had happened that happens every two years exactly - England let me down. Typical England, not good enough...
We need to use Vardy!
The Russian wormers are happy now :)
(btw, I won't be able to post here again until next weekend)

yeah, no one beats the Russian in having a nothing to lose attitude. As far as actual fighting goes, the last relevant Russian fighter was born in 76. Brazil, USA >>>>>>>>

Csongi keeps the lead today.
Husk & Senator big winners 8)
-
I blame ropa's "insight" for my Spain predictions. RIP wmd.
-
get dunked Csongi
-
Okay updated. Senator keeps shining. Also a good day for poorly produced cheese.
-
um, if a match ends up 1-0 and I put 0-1 I win 3 points? and if I put 2-0 only 2?
that's what I understand from rules
I never realized you could only get one of the three, I thought it was being added up. Like, 2 for a victor, 3+2 for a victor+goal difference and 3+2+4 for a perfect match.
-
Wow great result for Italy, didn't see that coming.
-
HHC best prediction game hoster in the world!
kappa
-
Ria Ria Hungaria.... bazdmegg!!! 🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺
-
Hah, we are pro! Zero Points Matchday xD
-
0 points scored today.
Amateurs.
This means Senator at the lead after week 1.
I updated the EClist.txt in the first post. The points scored for each match so far have been edited into it.. incase you wanna check back the pts you scored. Next update to it will come after 2nd week.
-
0 points scored today.
Amateurs.
Ha! ;D
-
Ae, we got a strong top 3 now with Senator, SPW and Aerox, the others follow on short distance :)
GL tomorrow.
-
HHC, I've already asked but you didn't respond.
Is it possible to put all of our prediction results in 1st post, not just for 2 days?
It says I'm on 15 pts, but it's actually 21!?
Dunno anymore, it's confusing.
-
It says I'm on 15 pts, but it's actually 21!?
I got 22 for u :D You had better have a good explanation HHC!
-
Wow, good point. I think I used an outdated standings to add pts yesterday. Fixing it now.
edit: fixed, will re-count again tonight. Prolly was caused by updating on two different computers, and using the outdated notepad file on my desktop instead of using the one in the thread. Neway, seems the results from Romania vs Switzerland weren't counted before, but also some pts from France vs Albania, and that f@#! up i cant explain haha. Neway I'll recount.
-
Not a problem, thx for fix.
Haha, senator, 22?? How did you get that, i need to recount again -.-
-
Haha, senator, 22?? How did you get that, i need to recount again -.-
Nevermind 21 is correct
-
SPW now shared 1st. Aerox and Triad looking for prey.
-
Seems I am very lucky these days. Last week I've been to czech and won Ćk4.000 in a pub. After this the whole week was for free :D Next Friday I am in Bregenz for a poker tournament. Maybe it continues. :)
-
today Buffon said: DIO PORCO DIAVOLO PORCO
-
Very nice turn from Senator tonight, clear lead now. :o
-
yeah what the f@#! Portugalol
-
Portugal-Austria was lucky, so was Croatia-Czech Rep. ;D
-
Tomorrow 4 games, pretty important 2 days ahead :)
Uzurpator loses his top pick already :( bl man
-
;D
-
Italy v Spain :-\
Watch Italy win the whole tournament (it certainly won't be England - nor France)
And I think I'll have to pay for my own copy of WMD :-X
-
yeah f@#! sergio f@#!ing ramos
-
if Russia and Ukraine played in the same group:
-
UPdated.
You can see the games for next round (1/8 finals). For each team in it you can see who predicted it to be in the quarterfinal round.

Finally ;D
We did it right from the beginning. ::)
Good job, England. Hope you will reach the euro.finals which means Germany (and Spain, Italy, France) failed!
Yes, Im a fan of England. My car got dressed with a swiss and an england flag. 8)
-
has Senator mathematically won already?
a quick look at the top 3 picks would seem to imply so
-
bl over the "swexit" SPW - but now you can support England! ;)
-
Will Grigg's not on fire anymore, what a sad day. :(
-
Urgh - I should have invested more heavily in Wales...
-
POLAND in 1/4 finals :D Very well done :-*
-
The Brits are coming out of Europe sooner than expected!!
England have been rubbish for 12 years now. Triad, you were unwise to back them to win!
Go Wales! Come on Bale!
-
they just took seriously this brexit things
-
Updated :)
I think it's been decided though, can't think of a way Ropa can beat Senator, only 3pts he can catch up if France goes to final. GG Senator..
-
I predict that Germany will Win.
-
I am the only one that can get my Top 3 predictions right!
1st. POR
2nd. GER
3rd. FRA
I am the true winner! :(
-
Well that was a rubbish tournament.
I am the true winner! :(
You are indeed, sir!
-
Nice guess kaiman :)
True winner be Senator though. Gratz with WMD mate 8)
-
gg
Thanks for organising HHC!
-
True winner be Senator though. Gratz with WMD mate 8)
Thanks! I didn't have Portugal even in the quarter-finals ;D But that's because I thought they would win their group and face Italy/Belgium in the first KO round..
-
Well done Sen!
That's you and Xrayez won a copy, when it's released can catch up for some 2v2 maybe with HHC too?
