The query I have is in Round 8.

RonnieMac only got 1 result correct.

Liberty got 3 out of 4 correct

I got 2 out of 3 correct.

Yet we all scored 16 points. Does not seem right somehow.

I don't think the correct match result awards any points though. It's more on the correct margin and picking the performing players.

Hey Leggy,

You don't actually get points for picking the correct result on its own, as bizarre as that sounds. You can score from your match pick several ways, with a maximum of 7 points available. It is split like this:

2 points for picking the correct number of goals for team 1

2 points for picking the correct number of goals for team 2

3 points for picking the correct margin

If you picked 1-1 for Liverpool/ManU this morning, you would get the maximum 7 points, as you would have picked both goal counts correctly, and the margin of 0. But if you had picked Liverpool to win 3-1 for example, you would still claim 2 points for correctly picking ManU to score 1 goal, even though you've got everything else wrong.

There's a bit of history to how we got here, tweaking over the seasons when we saw flaws in the old way of scoring, this is what we've ended up landing on. It's a difficult balance keeping it interesting without over-complicating, and I do understand how the situation you've outlined looks a little odd.

Here's a breakdown of how the three of you scored your respective 16's in Round 8:

Leggy:

Norwich 2 Aston Villa 0 (actual result 1-5)

Pukki Buendia

0 points

Liverpool 2 Leicester 0 (actual result 2-1)

Mane Firmino

6 points (2 for picking Liverpool to score twice, 4 for picking Mane)

Arsenal 2 Bournemouth 1 (actual result 1-0)

Auba Leno

5 points (3 for picking the correct margin, 2 points for picking Leno)

Newcastle 0 ManU 2 (actual result 1-0)

Rashford James

0 points

Southampton 0 Chelsea 2 (actual result 1-4)

Tammy Mount

5 points (4 for picking Abraham, 1 for picking Mount)

TOTAL: 16 points

Libertynz

Norwich 1 Aston Villa 3 (actual result 1-5)

Pukki, Buendia

2 points (for picking Norwich to score 1)

Liverpool 2 Leicester 1 (actual result 2-1)

11 points (7 for picking the score 100% correctly, plus 4 for picking Mane)

Mane, Salah

Arsenal 3 Bournemouth 2 (actual result 1-0)

Aubamayang, Pepe

3 points (for picking correct margin)

Newcastle 0 ManU 1 (actual result 1-0)

Pogba, McGuire

0 points

TOTAL: 16 points

Note: Libertynz did not make a pick for Soton v Chelsea

Ronniemac

Norwich 2 Aston Villa 1 (actual result 1-5)

Pukki, Cantwell

3 points (for picking Cantwell)

Liverpool 1 Leicester 1 (actual result 2-1)

Mane, TAA

6 points (2 for picking Leicester to score once, 4 for picking Mane)

Arsenal 3 Bournemouth 1 (actual result 1-0)

Auba, Saka

0 points

Newcastle 0 ManU 0 (actual result 1-0)

De Gea, Maguire

2 points (for picking ManU not to score)

Southampton 2 Chelsea 2 (actual result 1-4)

In shocking news, Libertynz has had what I think is his first bad week so far... plus a handful forgot this week, so some table changes are incoming!
