Premier League Last Man Standing 16/17

[MJA]

But then someone could wait until the last match of the weekend and basically just predict who won't lose.

Would that be any different to them picking a team from the final match of the weekend before any matches have started? There is nothing that could happen in the matches prior that would affect the outcome of the final match is there?

Obviously it's your game, so it's your rules. Just offering my thoughts

It's easier to pick between 3 games than it is to pick between 10 games. Probably best to set a deadline.

Even if those 3 fixtures are Man U v Man C, Arsenal v Liverpool and Chelsea v Spurs?

I'm not really fussed either way as I will generally get my predictions in before the first game anyway, I just wanted to give epic some thoughts regarding potential rules but as I have said it's his game and he can run it how he likes

If someone would have picked, say Sunderland, bt then saw that they lost, they could essentially get a second pick.

The rule in all the other leagues is, and always has been, that you can pick right up until kick off in any game.

I think there's also a rule that anyone with 2 'j's in their name gets a double chance.

Lucky for me.

This is true.

Scoring system is this:

10 x number of players (15) = 150 points available

60% (90) to winner, 25% (38) to second place, and 15% (22) to third.

In case of a tie with less than 4 people, whoever submitted first wins.
In case of a tie with more than 3 people, we do another round.

Just for clarification:
It was you who didn't understand my posting from yesterday. I stated that I already made my pick for the next round on Sunday (and you missed to recognize my post #27 and so I posted my pick again ).
