Euro 2004 Predictions

Message Bookmarked

Bookmark Removed

those of you who played the Premiership edition should be familar with ze rules. but let's recap:

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.

within ten minutes barthez comes running off his line, owen goes down like a sack of spuds a la argentina. barthez off, beckem scores penalty & rips top off to reveal ridiculous new tattoo of tupac cradling the baby jesus. as always the ten men play better than the eleven would and henry scores a goal that will give james nightmares for years to come. england hold out luckily during a second half onslaught even though neville does his best to give away a penalty. 1-1.

Yes, a staggering lack of belief all round that Greece, having qualified for this tournament above Spain, could actually pull off a result...(I also include myself in this, giving Portugal the benefit of the home advantage). Within about ten minutes I had my head in my hands "it's Senegal-France all over again"...

heads up

ROUND 2

16/6
Greece v Spain
Russia v Portugal
England v Switzerland
Croatia v France
Bulgaria v Denmark
Italy v Sweden
Latvia v Germany
Holland v Czech Republic

DEADLINE: you can predict the result of any game as long as it's posted before that game kicks off.

HOWEVER,

if you are posting your prediction for that game on the SAME DAY as that game takes place you will be docked roughly A THIRD of the points you may receive from that game's final result (to hopefully deter people posting bit by bit thus cluttering the board and making it more annoying to collate predictions and also to spoil advantage they may gain re late injuries or other results having an impact). this means you'll get 2 instead of 3, 3 instead of 5 and 7 instead of 10 (and 10 for a 0-0 too).

BONUS: PICK ONE JOKER for double points fun

BONUS 2: How many red cards will be issued in total for the eight games listed?

― stevem (blueski), Monday, 14 June 2004 17:46 (twenty-one years ago)

Well we had better move on to the quarters anyway, even if Steve is missing (probably fapping, then off to Glasto in the morning). I hope I've got these right. I won't assume any bonuses, but if there is a joker, I'll have it on France-Greece.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Wednesday, 23 June 2004 20:25 (twenty-one years ago)

Well how abt if we had a bonus.

bonus 1: JOKER
Bonus 2: select one match that you think we'll go to penalties (10 points for getting it right). Predict the winner (another 5) and the score of the penalty shootout (another 10).

is that ok? (most ilxers are prob not around right now but maybe tomorrow morning we can agree on something).

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Wednesday, 23 June 2004 20:30 (twenty-one years ago)

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Wednesday, 23 June 2004 20:50 (twenty-one years ago)

I think that would be fiendishly complicated to mark, Martin. How about the score is the score at end of the game, including extra time and we use Julio's bonus suggestions?

― Billy Dods (Billy Dods), Wednesday, 23 June 2004 21:02 (twenty-one years ago)

Unless Steve has something else in mind.

― Billy Dods (Billy Dods), Wednesday, 23 June 2004 21:02 (twenty-one years ago)

I have no idea either way, just trying to pre-empt whatever Steve comes up with.

Assuming, of course, he doesn't carry out his 'last 16 only' threat, in which case I'm out anyway.

― aldo_cowpat (aldo_cowpat), Wednesday, 23 June 2004 21:19 (twenty-one years ago)

I wasn't making suggestions, just hoping for clarification from Steve, when he shows up. I think we should leave bonus schemes up to him. It's not two hours since the group stage finished, so he's not late or anything!

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Wednesday, 23 June 2004 21:23 (twenty-one years ago)

Hey, if we all care enough to be checking this, then so should he!
Anyway, predictions are:

England 1-2 Portugal
France 3-1 Greece
Czech 3-1 Denmark
Holland 2-1 Sweden

Provisional 1st round double point correct score joker will be England v Portugal.

I also reserve the right to change my prediction for Holland v Sweden if you want the score after 90 minutes rather than the overall score.

I'll hold off on the other bonus thing until mr adjudicator shows up and tells us what it is. But I do confidently predict no penalty shootouts, if that's involved at all...

― ailsa (ailsa), Wednesday, 23 June 2004 21:37 (twenty-one years ago)

England 1-1 Portugal (Eng win on pens)
France 2-0 Greece *JOKER*
Sweden 1-3 Holland
Czech Rep 2-1 Denmark

Like everyone else, I reserve the right to change the above in the light of new information from SteveM.

― Michael Jones (MichaelJ), Thursday, 24 June 2004 06:43 (twenty-one years ago)

Just texted Stevem.

The Joker is - predict how many penalties will be missed in penalty shoot-outs.

Score predicted is that after 90 minutes - if you predict a draw after 90 mins, indicate who you think will win the game ultimately, be it after extra time on on penalties.

FINAL ROUND

30/6
PORTUGAL V HOLLAND

1/7
GREECE V CZECH REPUBLIC

FINAL (teams and score after 90 mins): (OPTIONAL- SEE BELOW)

PENALTY SHOOTOUTS, SCORES AND WINNERS: (see below)

bonus: one joker, double points

bonus extras: your predictions here will of course suggest which teams you believe will contest the final. SO, you can either then predict the score of the final now or hold off until after the semis. if you choose the former you will receive TRIPLE points should the score you predict for the final be the result after the final whistle of regular time (90 minutes plus injury time). if the score you predict is the result after extra time you'll get QUADRUPLE points.

if you would rather wait until after the semis to predict the result of the Final, you will only receive standard points allocation for your predicted score. but you will still get the points if the score you predict IS the score after 90 minutes (inc. injury time).

select a penalty shootout for any game (inc. final) and you'll get 10 pts if a shootout does occur in that game. plus another 10 pts for predicting the winners of the shootout, and another 10 for the correct score. not entering any details of penalty shootouts for any of the games will earn you 10 points if no shootouts occur.

http://base58.com/ilx/euro2004/predictionsgame/ILXE2K4P4.gif

*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...

Whoops, for ITA-BUL above I meant to say 'I said 2-0'. Points remain the same.

― Michael Jones (MichaelJ), Wednesday, 30 June 2004 15:06 (twenty-one years ago)

Port 1 - Holland 2 in extra time
Greece 0 - Czechs 2 in normal

Holland beat Czechs 2-1 in normal time.

Yeah, 4th place! Still chasing a podium place...

― Crackity (Crackity Jones), Wednesday, 30 June 2004 16:22 (twenty-one years ago)

Considering my abysmal second round, I'm quite chuffed with my roar up to 8th.

damn, shouldn't have gone for the aet.

― jel -- (jel), Wednesday, 30 June 2004 19:52 (twenty-one years ago)

I was doing damn well until the 1/4s. Much like England. Sob.

I'll be over it come 2006 (unless we don't qualify, in which I might never).

― Dave B (daveb), Wednesday, 30 June 2004 20:00 (twenty-one years ago)

same here jel.

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Wednesday, 30 June 2004 20:40 (twenty-one years ago)

Well my Holland/Czech Republic final doesn't look like too good a suggestion now.

Anyone who hasn't predicted the final yet, you've got about 12 hours left in which to do it.

― James Ball (James Ball), Thursday, 1 July 2004 21:35 (twenty-one years ago)

well

portugal 2 greece 0 (hoping greece win tho')

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Friday, 2 July 2004 07:43 (twenty-one years ago)

well, my semi final / final preduictions will rake me a big fat zero :o(

FINAL

Portugal 1 Greece 0 (Pauleta penalty)

― stevem (blueski), Friday, 2 July 2004 08:02 (twenty-one years ago)

Portugal 1 Greece 0. Ronaldo

― Dave B (daveb), Friday, 2 July 2004 08:33 (twenty-one years ago)

gawd if Pauleta doesn't score would that be a first? a team winning a tournament and their supposed star striker not scoring once? Did Gui'varch score in '98? could be classed as a 'star striker'?

― stevem (blueski), Friday, 2 July 2004 08:34 (twenty-one years ago)

Gui'varch didn't score IIRC - the only 'front man' who scored was Tegs Henry against the Saudis and Dugarry against South Africa.

― Dave B (daveb), Friday, 2 July 2004 08:54 (twenty-one years ago)

Greece 1 Portugal 2

― Jarlr'mai (jarlrmai), Friday, 2 July 2004 08:56 (twenty-one years ago)

Dave's right - Gui'varch was injured in the group opener vs South Africa (replaced by Dugarry - who scored almost straight away; he missed the Saudi match and only came on as a late sub in the Denmark and Paraguay matches; thereafter he was first choice and never looked like scoring). Henry also scored against SAF and Trezeguet was on target against SAU.

― Michael Jones (MichaelJ), Friday, 2 July 2004 09:38 (twenty-one years ago)

two weeks pass...

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.

Well done Chris, and thanks for running the game again Steve.

It's just as well you're not doing it next season though, as my luck is bound to run out soon.
