i post a list of fixtures, you re-post fixtures with your predicted scores for each game.
TEN points are awarded to you for a correct prediction (e.g. you say France 2 England 1 and that is indeed the final score), be it a win lose or draw. you get FIVE points if you predict the correct score and winning team only (e.g. you say 2-1 but final score is 2-0), and THREE points if your result matches but the score doesn't (e.g. you say 3-1 but final score is 1-0)
correctly predicting a goal-less draw gets you FIFTEEN points, how else are we to alleviate the boredom of such results ehh?
whoever's overall goal tally matches the actual total number of goals scored for that particlar round wins that amount of points as a bonus - this is calculated automatically so no work is required on your part here.
these rules apply for the group stages. when the knockout phase begins further rules/points allocation will be introduced e.g. predicting extra-time/penalties and outcome.

Czech Republic to win 4-3 on penalties. Am I allowed to do this so that I've predicted the right score, even if I'm not convinced I'll have the losing team based on my semi prediction? As Zebedee said, I'll have done by the rules by predicting the winner and score if this is correct...

*deep breath*...here goes...
points for the quarter-finals were awarded as follows:
predicting the correct score after 90 mins (3-10 pts depending on score)
predicting the winner of penalties or extra time (5 bonus pts) - you didn't need to specify scores in this case
double points on joker match specified (i can only apologise if this was not clear this time)
there were 6 missed penalties - only Zebedee predicted this, he was awarded 20 points as a result
three people's goal tallies (not including penalty shootouts) matched the actual tally of 8 (Casper, James Ball and JG) - they each received 8 bonus points as a result
something i forgot to mention from round 3 was that if your nominated player scored more than once you would get double (or more) the points hence 20 pts for Ruud Van Nistelrooy
sorry this round was chaotic due to my absence - hope all makes sense
and it looks like we have a winner in Chris Brown, but guess who's looming from behind...

nice one Cabbage - James Ball finishes in the top two of an ILX football game for third time in a season!
note that many people were awarded ten points because they didn't specify a penalty shootout in any match (as was the case) - also note that you didn't score points for predicting a score in extra time that was actually decided in normal time (happened to several people with the Portugal v Holland semi - hard luck there).
no goal tally bonus this time tho - and of course nobody could predict how it actually went down.
def not doing a Premiership game but thanks to all for playing along.
