2014/15 Arsenal tips comp.

righto

1. Tip Arsenal win =1 point

2. Tip Arsenal Draw = 2 points

3. Tip Arsenal loss = 3 points

EPL, FA Cup, League Cup all count. UCL will be added in if we qualify into Group stage.

Correct game score = bonus 5 points

Each game select a player, 1 point for each of their Assist or Goal.

5 points = correct Epl standing after Arsenal has played 19 games

10 points for correct standing after 38 games

5 points each for correct round of finishing in both FA and League Cups

5 points for correctly picking which player makes the most EPL starts (not a GK)

5 points for correctly tipping our total number of EPL clean sheets

5 points for leading Assists player in all comps

5 points for leading goal scorer in all comps

St Totters Day. Number of games Arsenal have played= 5 points

Workable? Suggestions?

.

r1tip

Arsenal 3, Palace 0.

Player = Giroud

most starts = Gibbs

Pos @19 = 2nd

Pos @ 38 = 1st :)

Leading assist = Ozil

Leading goal  Giroud

Total number of Epl clean sheets = 21!

ST Tott's = End of  Game 33

Champions League - quarter finals

League Cup = semi finalg

I dont like the points differences for picking arsenal wins, draws or losses... makes a mess of my usual pattern - picking Arsenal to win every game ;)

Round 1 tip:

Arsenal 4 Crystal Palace 1

Player: Ramsey

Season tips:

St totts: 34 games

Pos 19: 1st

Pos 38: 1st

FA Cup exit: Winners

League Cup exit: Quarter Final

Most EPL starts: Debuchy

Clean sheets: 19

Leading assists: Ozil

Leading scorer: Giroud

CL exit: Semi-finals

Yeah I think it should just be the same points for picking the correct result (win, lose or draw).

Also, anyone want to put money on it and winner takes all?

the points difference is because of the high number of games everyone tips an Arsenal win. 

Any other potential changes?

$ prize? Alright with me.

Fair enough. Another one to add in is the date of St Totteringham's Day. That's usually a fun one to predict. Regarding picking one player for each game, maybe a point for a clean sheet for GK and defenders too to make it worthwhile picking them.

With a $ prize I thought something like everyone putting in $5-$10 and the overall winner at the end gets it. Needs someone trustworthy to hold onto the money though. Probably the kind of thing a private message feature would be useful for (providing account numbers).

Anyway,

Do we want to have a rule for if people join late i.e. they get the same points as the person coming last, or 5 less than the person coming last or something like that?

ok, Paul make a decision on late rule. Good idea

Any thoughts on St Totts day prediction or points for clean sheets if you pick the GK or a defender for your player?

St Totts is in, I edited the top of this page.

Not sure on Defender/GK? How about 2 points for a C/S and/or 2 points for an Assist or Goal?

Yep that sounds good, more points for an assist or goal for a defender as it's less likely and makes it worthwhile taking a gamble instead of going for the same couple of players as everyone. Didn't notice the edit, will edit my round 1 tips now to include St Totts Day.

ajc28 please change your St Totts pick to a round number. Just in case of cup replays, postponements, bad weather whatever.

So 2 points Players are  Scz/Osp (obviously) 

and Gibbs, Kos, Debuc, Meatsack, Nacho, Chambers, Hayden, Miq, Belle.  Fair call? 

Ah right will change. Yep that's fair.

OK team, any more changes? If Paul is  unable to get back with a decision on the Late Player Rule we go with;

"Lowest score, minus number of EPL rounds Arsenal have played". 

Cup picks need to be in before Arsenal play in that particular comp.
