Soapbox Oracle - 6/9/19

Stu Pedasol wins another one!

By Kreg Asay

Oracle Scoring System:

  • Getting the right result (Team A beats Team B): 1 point
  • Each correct number of goals for either team: 1 point (result was 1-1, and you picked 2-1; gives you 1 correct pick and 1 wrong pick so 1 point).
  • If you picked the correct goal for one team, and the final result (result was 2-0, and you picked 2-1; you get 1 point for the goal, and one for the result so 2 points).

So there is are 0-3 points possible for EVERY game. Bonus games will also be added occasionally with International games, Open Cup and others.

We now fully start the Gold Cup break! Time to possibly make up some lost ground with Bonus Games!

The Women’s World Cup has begun and the World Cup Oracle survey is available for remaining games; here are the current points for those of you playing.

Here’s this week’s stats:

ORACLE OF THE WEEK: Stu Pedasol picks up 4th Oracle with 11 points!

  • Participation: 14 plus 5 carryovers for the midweek games.
  • Game with most points earned: New York City FC’s rout of Cincinnati FC produced 17 points.
  • Game with least points earned: USMNT’s debacle vs Venezuela awarded a whopping 3 points to the two players who actually picked a South American win.

Here’s the full scoring spreadsheet, and the survey for next week, which is also at the bottom of this page for some viewers!
