World Cup 2010 Official Thread and Pool Entry

Ok so I am going to organize a World Cup Pool. We can have as many people enter as possible. $25 entry fee. We can discuss escrow our how we manage money in this thread.

The pool is organized through WCPool.com

I was thinking of the following prize money allocation:
1st place 50%
2nd place 30%
3rd place 15%
4th place 5%


Scoring:
Points will be calculated using data provided to us by www.soccerway.com. Any adjustments to the official results (disqualification etc.) that arise after we have updated the scoring will have no effect on the updated scoring. In other words: we will not adjust scores.

All the matches:
You can earn 1 point for every match which you predicted correctly (home wins, tie or away wins)

1/8 finals:
+1 point for every correct predicted country in the 1/8 finals.
+1 bonus point for every country placed in the correct position.

Quarter Finals:
+2 points for every correct predicted country in the quarter finals.
+2 bonus points for every country placed at the correct position.

Semi Finals:
+3 points for every correct predicted country in the semi finals.
+3 bonus points for every country placed at the correct position.

Third place:
+4 points for every correct predicted country in this round.
+4 bonus points for every country placed at the correct position.

Final:
+5 points for every correct predicted country in the final.
+5 bonus points for every country placed at the correct position.

Remarks:
Scoring will only apply to normal time (90 minutes + injury time), and does not include goals scored during extra time or penalties

For each round a maximum of one country will be awarded with points. If you predicted for example Portgal vs Portugal in the final you will not receive double points.

You have to pick the results for every game up to and including the final, before the start of the 1st game on June 11th 2010. You cannot change your picks once the tournament has begun.

I will have the authority to approve your admission to the subgroup pool I created so either hit me up on ICQ: 165105635 or by email to [email protected] or just post in this thread. Normally I'll be back to you right away.


Also if any companies want to throw in some extra prizes that would be really cool too.

I will throw in $250 in advertising on the Sex2ube.com Traffic Network

SIGN UP HERE, and use the subgroup code: GFY2010WCUP
