Your shit aaaaaaaah! Sports jumble game

[phes]

This developed almost by accident in The Boston Crab's Chelsea v Everton thread and here's how it works:



1)This is a sports score-prediction game.

2)Enter by copy and pasting current predictions, adding your prediction and donating a prize to the pot - the prize can be anything you choose.

3)Winner takes all prizes.

4)Losers pay postage.

5)Winner picks next sports event.

6)In the event of no clear winner, prize pot rolls over.


and here is the rollover from earlier today:

Should help keep it simple.

The disparity in prize value is comical - if alcoholicmessiah wins, Swordfish might not be the only piece of shit he finds in the envelope from me!

I find the prize disparity heart-warmingly funny. It's a truly inclusive system.

I was going to put 2-1 but think that everyone should have an unique prediction to make prize-giving out simpler - early bird gets first dibs on the score should be a rULE

[The Boston Crab]

Yeah, I totally agree. Quick summary, then:

themidnightwatchbaboon - Let the right one in (blu ray) 4-2

I just knew something good would come of that ridiculous thread.

[Queneau]

Anyone else excited about this game? Come on football!

[alcoholic messiah]

I need more prizes. Then, and only then, will I feel so much as a twitch downstairs.

[the midnight watch baboon]

i'M A bit sad as the only reason I didn't bother selling LetTheRightOneIn on eBay/Amazon was I couldn't be arsed trudging to the post office to send it to someone, which I'll prolly now have to do as I think it's unlikely it'll finish 4-2!

But I am verrr excited still :)

[Queneau]

Mark Lawrenson reckons it will end 1-1 while Idris Elba, star of the critical smash hit Family Affairs, thinks Arsenal will win 2-1[nb]http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/football_focus/9272984.stm[/nb].

[The Boston Crab]

Still so pumped. Another day slaving away on an assignment, just a couple of thousand words to do, anticipation this amazing gamble and the glow of victory will light up my world for 24 hours.

[gmoney]

I hope I wasn't too rash in buying a Blu-Ray player and an HD DVD player in anticipation of my win.

[The Boston Crab]

Just realised this isn't til Monday. RUINED MY DAY>

[buntyman]

I'm annoyed to realise this too. We should have made Newcastle v Liverpool the game as I believe it to be the hardest game of all time to predict.

[Depressed Beyond Tables]

5 Manchester United vs Arsenal 5

[The Boston Crab]

What you betting?

[Depressed Beyond Tables]

My reputation.

[gmoney]

Get tae fuck

[Depressed Beyond Tables]

I make the rules around here.
