Results came down to the final game, but once again Stu Pedasol pics up the win!

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.

There were 22 games this week, and most of the players were over a point per match. There are 22 games again this week, and the tiebreaker / bonus is also included. Some of you may want to increase your guesses on the bonus question since nearly everyone is coming in low (they were a bit closer this week though).

Midweek games have been carried over from last week, so as always if you wish to keep your previous picks feel free to leave them blank.

Here’s this week’s stats:

ORACLE OF THE WEEK: Stu Pedasol with 28 points!

  • Participation: 12 - plus one carryover from last week.
  • Game with most points earned: Utah Royals FC beating Orlando Pride had a total of 23 points given out.
  • Game with least points earned: Two games tied for this category, the wild 3-3 draw between Montreal vs FC Dallas, and Chicago Fire knocking 2 past Philadelphia Union with only 4 points received for each game.
  • Bonus/Tiebreaker: 62 goals scored. For the second time, Yoursangoma won the bonus points by picking the exact total of goals, unfortunately it was not enough to pull out the 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!
