  • Unsophisticated Prediction Tiers Season 56 Match Day 5

    From Futbolmetrix@21:1/5 to All on Sun Dec 17 11:27:10 2023
    Unsophisticated Prediction Tiers Season 56 - League NED/ENG2 Match Day 5 (2023/12/23-24)


    Eredivisie takes a break until Jan 13, so it's all English Championship,
    all the time.



    What to do
    -----------

    Look at the fixtures below: do you play home or away?

    *Home*
    - Before Thursday (= before 2023/12/20, 23:59 GMT)
    =- Pick one team from each of the two matches, in order of preference

    *Away*
    =- After Wednesday (or even sooner, if the home player has picked their
    teams) and before kickoff of the first match on Saturday 2023/12/23
    - Pick one of the teams not picked by your opponent (if they haven't
    picked any team, you have free choice)
    =- their opponents will represent your opponent

    *ATTENTION: NEW RULE*: If the away player doesn't pick any team before
    his/her deadline, the home player will be
    represented by the team that achieves the best outcome out of his/her
    two picked teams.
    If the home player doesn't pick any team before his deadline, the away
    player can pick two teams (one from each match),
    and he/she will be represented by the team that achieves the best
    outcome out of his/her two picked teams.
    If nobody picks a team, teams are assigned randomly.

    Wooden spoon decider here, must make sure to disorient my opponent with well-crafted picks.

    (who play where Messi can't do it on a rainy night)

    I have no idea. I'm in complete crisis-mode.

    ???

    I pick Blackburn Rovers and Plymouth Argile.

    MH, please be gentle.

    I have as little idea as you do. Watford, because they have a Canadian (Koné).

    I like this thing of posting results immediately:

    Tier 1
    ----
    Mark 0-0 Werner Pichler (Millwall - Stoke City)
    milivella 1-2 MH (Blackburn Rovers - Watford)


    Pts M GF GA GD Picks Team
    9 5 9 3 6 4 Mark
    7 5 9 8 1 5 milivella
    5 5 5 7 -2 5 MH
    4 5 3 8 -5 4 Werner Pichler

    The Mark-Werner match was selected by random.org, even though it ended
    up coinciding with Mark's first choice. It wouldn't have been quite fair
    to let him get the best of his two picks when he was past the deadline.

    Mark still has some work to do to secure the title (what an inept biased gamemaster I am!), while milivella could still in theory go down, but it
    would require a quite unusual combination of results.


    Tier 2
    ----
    Futbolmetrix 4-0 Jesper Lauridsen (Leeds United - Ipswich Town)
    The Doctor 1-2 Jesus Petry (Blackburn Rovers - Watford)


    Pts M GF GA GD Picks Team
    10 5 10 4 6 5 The Doctor
    9 5 9 5 4 4 Jesus Petry
    5 5 6 4 2 5 Futbolmetrix
    4 5 3 15 -12 5 Jesper Lauridsen


    Jesus prevents Doc from securing promotion, while in the wooden spoon
    battle, the House of York comes away with a glorious triumph. But it
    ain't over till it's over...
