    How does Pornapster's predictions work in the bonus game? Because he gave 4 scorelines, if he gets 2 of them right does he get 8 points or whats the craic? I thoguth i was only allowed to give 1 scoeline for the bonus points.

    You could be right IB. I'm not too sure about how many scorelines you are supposed to post. I'm posting all of em so I have a better chance of getting one right.

    Well the current rule is that you pick your own bonas match score and that is for 'one' match.
    But, what Porn has done is more logical, and that is to put in exact scores for all the matches - a step I agree with. It adds an extra level of skill on to your prediction imo.
    Level 1: Predict who'll win or draw.
    Level 2: Predict the scoring margin, unless it's a draw.
    Level 3: Predict the exact score of the match.

    I suppose you could go further and add more levels like how many goals are scored, how many yellow/red cards awarded, time of the first score, ...etc. the list is endless in this game.

    That sounds like a lot of work for whoever has to compile the table every week. Maybe stating a score in points would be easier e.g. Dublin 16 Kilkenny 59 That way calculating differences is easy as is calculating if score was correct or not.
    It would mena that peole are more likely to get some of these points as well as the goals-points thing is not an issue.

    It shouldn't be a lot of work as there is only going to be a couple of matches on at each weekend for the rest off the championship, but point taken it's a lot of work for poor old Alany - gawd bless'em.

    for the moment porn you may only post one exact score but this may change ..please select you bonus match..if you dont get a chance to do this I will select the cavan match as you bonus game.

    I think you should disqualify him Al. Not that it really matters, in fairness you could just give me the prize money now and save yourself an hours work each Monday afternoon.
