RE: MAJOR LEAGUE SOCCER CONTEST #11: distributing the post's SBD rewards (10 SBD min.) & more than 100,000 in POCKET!
Yes, but the above entry of @jsock includes draws, that is not applicable if we just want to predict who will qualify ... Do i miss something?
No, you didn't miss anything, draws are impossible as the result of a playoffs series and I consider them as null predictions for the entries that include them. I try to avoid getting too much involved in the entering process as long as people upvote, pay the 100 POCKET and make an entry that doesn't contradict itself by forcing me to chose between two opposing answers (like 2 teams facing each other as both being winners) by the same person.
I'm facing a dilemma between helping erroneous participations have an equal chance with perfectly fine entries and risking being called as unfair by those who take the time to read and think through their entries. The Win or Loss choice is clearly defined in the rule section and elaborated upon in the intro of the post. Words such as knockout, playoffs, overtime, shootout, series, and first & second legs are all over in the post and give a clue as to the nature of the competitions involved. I don't really know what more I could do to avoid misleading participations like the one you are referring to.
@jsock won a second place last week by predicting one of the four matches as being a draw. That's the only prediction that was missed by @jsock. Would I have been unfair to first place @maarnio if I had told @jsock he should think about changing his entry? I don't know, but now I feel like I should tell @jsock for the errors of this week's entry.
