[QUOTE=Ryan's Rovers]

More things to tip on, with more points to harder correct tips
   - 90m Result = 1pts
   - To Pogress = 1pts
   - HT Result = 2pts
   - Total Yellow Cards = 3pts
   - Total Corners = 4pts
   - Correct Score = 5pts
   - First Goal Scorer [Own Goal's dont count] = 10pts
   - Crowd Firgure [Within 100] = 15pts

Feedback on the finals set up would be good, its subject to change if people have better ideas, or more suggestions.

   That's a lot to think about (let alone keep track off). I don't like thinking

but hey I'm in..

i reckon get rid of atleast picking number of corners and number of yellows. Ends up being far too much of a lottery for me.

Don't mind the rest though.

You realise that, in the ancient of days, tied games would be decided by "most corners won". This is the same root as "behinds" in AFL.

A-League Finals Tipping:

Bit of a change from my original plan, but it will be five pools of 6 people now (seems I cannot count, and there is 27 people active). This means 3 games in each pool for the first weekend, with the highest ranked loser getting a 2nd chance.

To make things easier, for the tipping I have reduced it to 5 options.

If we have a tie between the points people get, whoever posted their picks first will progress.

Round 1:

Adelaide v Nix

HT Result [2 pts]:
HT Score [3 pts]:
90m Result [2 pts]:
90m Score [3 pts]:
To Progress [1 pts]:

CCM v Roar

HT Result [2 pts]:
HT Score [2 pts]:
90m Result [2 pts]:

GCU v Victory

HT Score [2 pts]:
90m Result [2 pts]:

Note: 1st game is Adelaide v Nix (not the other way around).

Not sure why we have to enter result, surely these can be deduced from scores (and I don't think putting in conflicting results / scores is cricket).

It would be a lot easier with HT / FT (=90 mins) / progress for each of the matches.

In any case, here's my lot in full.

Adelaide v Wellington

HT Result [2 pts]: draw
HT Score [3 pts]: 0-0
90m Result [2 pts]: home
90m Score [3 pts]: 2-0
To Progress [1 pts]: Adelaide

CCM v Roar

GCU v Victory

90m Result [2 pts]: draw

Also, think it's better if you don't post the match-ups until closer to kickoff so people cant alter their picks accordingly to guarantee a draw if that's all they need.
