Why is there a 2 points column on this; http://www.habboxforum.com/vbsoccer....overallranking ?

[W00TZEH]

• (0 Pts.) Tip lose.
• (1 Pts.) Correct final outcome.
• (2 Pts.) Correct final outcome and goal difference
• (3 Pts.) Exact result.

someone PM me with how the points system works.
i dont get how i got 1 point with the Germany vs. Australia game, I posted a 3-0 prediction, i thought i might've at least got 2 points.

[CHA!NGANG]

No. You got the right result, a win for Germany, but you didn't get the right Goal Difference and you didn't get the exact result.

If you said: 5-1 for Germany, you would have got 2 points. If you said 4-0 you would have got 3.

[Black_Apalachi]

Ohhhh so you get points even if the scoreline isn't correct, as long as it stated the correct winner?

FGS I PREDICTED GERMANY 4-0 THEN I WENT OUT AND PUT A BET ON 3-1 :eusa_wall:eusa_wall:eusa_wall:eusa_wall

ok the 1 point and 3 point is cleared up.

still unsure on the 2 pointer.
if germany won 5-1 i would've got 2 points, how??

You predicted 3-0? You get 1 point for predicting the correct winner but without the correct scoreline or goal difference. If you had predicted 5-1, that would be a goal difference of 4 which would have been correct (as it was 4-0) but still not the exact scoreline so you would have got 2 points

I'm not sure whether 2 points is just for the correct goal difference or whether you also have to have the correct winner or not...

[Black_Apalachi]

Grr I've got 1-1 on NZ v Slovakia and I was gonna have another 1-1 on Ivory Coast v Portugal but predicting them as draws is a waste really because you have less chance of getting 1 point - as you will only get it if it turns out to be a draw but say for example NZ win, you would get it for any prediction as long as their goals are higher than Slovakia's.

Am I making sense here or is it just all in my head?

[CHA!NGANG]

Yes, but if it is a Draw you automatically get 2 points instead of 1 as the GD is always the same so it's about even.
