Cornish Steve Posted August 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2017 Here's the rationale behind getting 8 and not 10 points if you predict the score correctly when Everton scores no goals. To get 10 points, you must predict two things: the correct score and the first goalscorer. Both are difficult. If you predict the correct score when Everton scores no goals, you still achieve the first objective, but you avoid having to predict the goalscorer. Frankly, it's easy to predict "no scorer" when we score no goals. It's not easy to predict "Rooney", for example, when we do score a goal. Therefore, I stick by the current rule: 8 points if you predict the correct score when there's no Everton goalscorer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cornish Steve Posted August 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2017 Congratulations to barryj, who scored an 8-pointer this week. He just failed to catch Peter H, though, for top spot in August. Peter H also leads for Points per Prediction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
