I know this is probably never going to happen (especially to me), but I really don't think you should be able to loose if you get all 5 tips right with margins.
i.e 4 wins and margins and one win (13) vs 3 draws and two wins with margins (12).
Maybe a bonus in that situation? or a draw? or 2.5 points for a draw and total scores are rounded down?
Because we don't need to encourage "going for the win", and draws are often just as hard to pick...

Should draws be 3 points too, because they are also picking the correct result?
Or like wins, perhaps we could have 2 options: bore draw & score draw, or 0 - 1 goal each vs 2+ goals each (0-0/1-1 v 2-2, 3-3, etc)
Or perhaps I should get out more?

I do admit I was worried that maynardf might have lost in the Cup competition despite getting 5/5 results right. But I am reluctant to shift the goal posts during the year, so am stuck with the points system I originally posted. If I was doing it now, I would go for 2pts for a win, 3pts for win & margin and 2pts for the draw.
I did consider doing a bore draw/score draw option but tried to keep it simple.
I will definitely look at how things go for this years competition and take on board any comments. The points system isn't perfect, but it is better than previous. I will keep trying to evolve things into a more fair, balanced and fun competition as the years go on. Good things take time as they say.
Yeah I was sleepy when I wrote that.
Brain no worky.
I do agree you cant change it during the season, but I guess you could look into it after promotion.
I still think you should get rewarded for picking a draw over just a win though. The 'problem' is overvaluing the margin, so drop that back to 2 points. Picking a draw would still be risky as you don't have the 1 point to fall back on. It's an all or nothing option.
A draw would be like picking the margin and the win. You also could t have any of the problems mentioned above.
I'm happy with how it is now, and also don't mind the idea you suggest either. Just thought I'd put my 2 cents in as an idea.
