Cheers for setting this up Steve.

Strange way of points scoring here You can't choose a draw??
So even if you wanted to pick a draw,everyone in the competition gets one point whether they wanted the draw or not Strange.

Done my picks for the 1st round to see how it goes

23 people joined so far, it will be interesting.

Can it actually be a draw in world cup? Or do they extend the time? (Sorry, soccer newbie here )

Anyway, I am happy to have just two choices, a third choice should make it a lot more complex. I have done my predictions for the first 7 rounds.

In the "real World Cup" yes you can draw some games. The top two teams from each "Group" go through to the next round.
When the matches reach the quarter final stage (I think ) then it becomes a knock-out competition.
If the game is level after 90mins,then extra time is played and if it is still level then it goes to a penalty shootout.
This is where England always fail

Edit Its when the competition reaches the last 16 teams that it is knock out

With the weekly NRL tipping, each game closes before it starts, so I presume that the same rules will be used here. I hope they have taken into account the time zones differences.

It depends on how many participants, was going to wait and see how much interest was in it before thinking about forking out for a license.

1 - 10 $29
11 - 20 $49
21 - 50 $69
51 - 100 $99
101+ $149

The above are AUD$. We currently have 25 starters.

Ok just reading this... We dont get a point for a draw do we? The people who got the goal difference right gets an extra point.... I think thats how it works out.... Is that right?

Look like we get one point of either draw or win, as in my case. I didnt get any points for the margin score/goal difference.
