Most Important MemberRULES
1) POINTS ALLOCATION
In this game, you have to predict the scores of every Serie A and other top European games that is played in the weekend (Or sometimes in midweek). You get 5 points for predicting the outcome of the match (A draw, home win or away win) and another 5 points for correct scoreline. These are some examples:
In the event of a match being abandoned, the match will not be counted for that week and if there is any member who assign a special match to that match, there will be no special points awarded for that round.
2) DEADLINES
Some rules you have to follow, you have to predict before the first match of the round start. If you predict during or after that match, you can only make predictions of the other matches. You cannot edit your predictions once the match start.
The deadline of the prediction is 5-10 minutes before the first match of the week. However, since I'm a very kind guy
stuckup I'll allow you to predict the rest of the week's matches if you missed the first or second matches. PS: The first and second matches are usually on Saturday whereas the rest are played on Sunday.
3) FOR THE LAZY A$$es
As discussed earlier, those who miss the PL 4 weeks in a row, his/her account will be deleted. This is to make sure that there are nobody who just predict once than never predict again for the rest of his 'career'.
4) SPECIAL MATCH
From now on, it is possible for you to assign a 'special match'. Let me use an example since I can't explain myself. Let's say this is my prediction:
You can only assign one special match per week. This is a double-edged sword because if you predict the wrong outcome for your special match, your point will be deducted by 10. Starting from season 05/06 onwards, it is no longer compulsory to assign a special match.
If there is a canceled match in a PL round, there will not be a "special match" because it would be unfair for members who had previously selected that canceled match as their special match.
5) PREDICTING THE SCORERS
First of all, there are some pointers that you have to take note of:
6) PRIZE
Winning the league entitles you to an Inter jersey of your choosing. Between this season and the next, home or away. Please read the new rules.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Why don't I get the result in my e-mail?
There has been a change. I have finally learned how to upload and post an image from my computer into the web. So, now you will view the result in this topic.
Oh my God! Oh my God! I missed the PL for 4 weeks in a row. I swear Please let me in again and I swear I will be active!
Alright but it depends on whether you were active in this game or not.
Oh no! The season has already begun. Can I still join?
Yes, you can join in at any one point of time during the whole course of the season. However, you will have to start from scratch.
Help! I wanna change my prediction but I can't edit it out!
Yes. The 'Edit' feature was disabled from this forum so as to prevent cheating. Make a new prediction and I will take your latest. Do notify me in the thread that you have made a new prediction though.
UPDATE: As of beginning of season 2008/2009, due to the bug which still allow members to edit their posts, we will completely disallow (not count) posts that have been edited. If they want to make an adjustment to their prediction, they have to post a completely new post.
What time zone do you use for the times you posted in the topics?
Central European Time. It is the GMT +1, I believe. Be careful of the daylight saving time though. Daylight saving time starts on the last Sunday in March and ends on the last Sunday in September. In Britain and many other countries worldwide, it lasts from March 30 to October 26.
Outcome!? Results!? Scores!? What's the diff, Han!?
Outcome ---> Away win, draw or home win
Scores ---> Example, Juventus - Inter 0-2
Why do I read different rules posted by Han in the next few posts?
Ignore them and just refer to this post. I am merely giving some suggestion in this topic and when it's accepted, I'll update this post. I repeat, ignore the rest of the posts and just read this one.

5) PREDICTING THE SCORERS
First of all, there are some pointers that you have to take note of:
- It works only in Inter's matches
- You are only predicting Inter's scorers
- You can only get the points if you correctly predicted the number of goals that Inter scores
- You get 5 points for every scorer correctly predicted
- Not all scorers that you predicted have to score in order for you to earn some of the points
- You don't have to predict the correct outcome of the match for you to earn the points
- In a round whereby there is more than 1 Inter match, you can predict scorers for all Inter matches
- Actual scoreline: Inter 3-0 Milan (Adriano, Adriano, Martins)
Your prediction: Inter 4-1 Milan (Adriano, Recoba, Recoba, Martins)
No. of points you get: 5 (Correct outcome) (No extra points for scorers' here because you predicted that Inter would score 4 but in reality, Inter only scored 3)
Your prediction: Inter 3-1 Milan (Adriano, Recoba, Martins)
No. of points you get: 5 (Correct outcome) + 10 (You only predicted that Adriano would score once, hence you will only get 5 points from him plus another 5 from Martins) = 15
Your prediction: Inter 3-0 Milan (Adriano, Adriano, Martins)
No. of points you get: 10 (Correct outcome) + 15 (Correct scorers) = 25
- Actual scoreline: Inter 3-0 Milan (Adriano, Adriano, Martins)
Your prediction: Inter 3-3 Milan (Adriano, Adriano, Martins) :star:
No. of points you get: 0 (Correct outcome) + 15 (Correct scorers) - 10 (Special match mistake) = 5
6) PRIZE
Winning the league entitles you to an Inter jersey of your choosing. Between this season and the next, home or away. Please read the new rules.
