Last Person Standing - Xmas Special

Post by Selby White »

As we've had no takers to run a LPS game now Frankie has stepped down I said I would knock something together for an Xmas special. Slightly different format hope people like it.

So here goes -

Rules -
1. 10 matches each round
2. Each player predicts each result by simply copying and pasting the list then putting a H or D or A at the side.
3. You can select same results as others (so no real advantage going first)
4. Loser is player with least correct predictions.
5. In case of a tie at bottom of list name total number of goals scored in the 10 matches (as this would be a tie-break only in case players are level you can't predict same as others).
6. Player finishing last each round drops out until we have the last person standing (no roll over scores everyone still in starts from scratch, every round).

Any questions please ask.

Am hoping this trial format proves popular and is supported by the forum. Spread the word its all good fun.
Don't want to see the competition die so if we can get 10+ players will look at continuing in the new year.

Round One - 30th Nov

Charlton v Sheff Wed
Barnsley v Hull
Birmingham v Millwall
Brentford v Luton
Bristol City v Huddersfield
Derby v QPR
Leeds v Middlesbrough
Nottm Forest v Cardiff
Stoke v Blackburn
Wigan v Reading

Bugger, thought it was a later start date. Sorry Selby, I would definitely have joined if only I read it correctly :oops:

Sorry SW, I can only echo KK’s comments.

I wouldn’t mind, but I checked before I set off to the game today that I’d entered all the competitions, obviously, missed this.

Again, apologies :thumbdown:

Will give it a break then maybe try something further down the line and try drum up some interest.
