    Congrats to Chippy, never in much doubt in the latter stages, didn't really care who won the cup once England went out but the prediction league kept a bit of interest in the World Cup that I was pretty meh about.

    @World Cup 2022

    I've finally got through doing a manual audit of each match to ensure there weren't any mistakes, everything seems to be correct so here are the final results.

    Congrats @Chippy@Chippy

    Will get winner badges sorted in the new year, I want to automate handing out of badges as creating the images and user groups and then moving people manually into the correct usergroup to takes way too long, especially for the regular prediction league but I need to get the regular prediction league up to date first which needs a few small tweaks to the script to account for some quirks I didn't think about between the world cup and regular one. So when that's done I'll get it to hand out the badges owed for this and also last seasons regular one

    Very pleased to have finished in second place. It shows that I am much better at predictions when games don't involve City.

    It can be easier when it's not specifically about your team, especially if form is inconsistent. I've struggled on Man Utd recently because form has been so up and down that and I struggle to bring myself to believe they won't win, was much easier in the Fergie years where wins happened in a more consistent manner

    Same thoughts here from third place. I sometimes think emotions come into it with City, whereas I tried to be very clinical and dispassionate in this competition.

    Once again thanks to @SimonW@SimonW for organising it.

    My form in this tournament was awful, compared to previous ones, despite watching quite a lot of the matches. As I fell further behind I started going for results that no one else had predicted, in the hope of gaining some ground - a strategy that clearly failed dismally.
    Oh well, here's to next time.
