Bantam Talk European Championships 2024 Prediction League

We are back for a special European Championships 2024 Edition of the Bantam Talk Prediction League.

Entry is open to all registered Forum Members and is free to play. Every European Championships 2024 Match we will ask for your match predictions and you will be awarded points based on the accuracy. These scores accumulate over the tournament and whoever has accrued the most points at the end of the season will be crowned champion.

Full details can be found in the following replies. Use the navigation links below to quickly jump to the specific post

• How to play
• Point System
• Rules
• Prizes

Anyway good luck and if you have any questions please let us know below

 

How To Play

Around 24 hours before match kicks off a prediction thread will be posted for that match. On this thread, you just need to post your match prediction in the following format BEFORE kickoff

*NOTE* Unlike the normal Prediction League we need the scorers for BOTH SIDES

For example

 

Point System

Points are awarded as follows

• Correct Result – 2 Points
• Correct Score - 3 Points
• Correct Scorer – 1 Point

Bonus Points. 3 bonus points will be awarded to anyone who makes a perfect prediction. A perfect prediction is a correct result, score and all Scorers correctly predicted

Penalty Points. If you predict either side scoring 6 or more goals you will get a penalty of -1 for each incorrect scorer. This is to prevent abuse by naming all 11 starters as scorers for guaranteed points.

Knockout Round Scoring Amendements
As in the knockouts and matches can go to Extra Time and Penalties we have some amendments to the scoring for these matches.

• Your Result and Score predictions are based on the initial 90 minutes. So we can still predict a draw
• In the event of Extra Time, you can still gain goalscorer points.
  • These will only be worth half a point however
• Goal Scorer points WILL NOT be available in a shoot-out

 

Rules

• Entering via multiple accounts is forbidden. If we catch you using multiple accounts they will all be disqualified
• Only entries made before kick-off will be accepted
• *Only one submission per user will be accepted per match. In the event of multiple submissions, we will use the last submission. If adjusting your entry we still suggest deleting previous submissions
• Don’t use players nicknames, only their surnames (If there are multiple players with the same surname then enter in the format of FirstName.Surname)

 

Prizes

We should hopefully have a couple of prizes, however is dependent on the number taking part. We should have more details on prizes at the end of Day 2

Keep an eye out on the thread for updates and new prizes as they are added

Want to contribute a prize? Any help with prizes would be greatly appreciated. This can be done either as an official business sponsorship, a private sponsorship or on an anonymous basis. If you provide a prize as a business we will include your name and branding in all Prediction League threads and promotion via social media

I just made a copy of the World Cup thread and then forgot to change the text Thanks for pointing it out

 

I will let him have it seeing as it was posted well before kick off

 

If it wasn't for the timezone I absolutely would but as the system does need some input from me to trigger the automations I'm just not sure there would be enough interest to make it worthwhile. If the all just kicked off a couple of hours earlier it would have certainly been down to do it
