Soapbox Oracle - Week 4 or 12 (who knows)

The Oracle of the Week is Jared Nethery

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.

Last week’s Oracle of the Week was Meganrsl thanks to picking Portland Timbers as the tournament winner! Games this week are coming every day so get your picks in! As for what week we’re in, I’m going to pick 12 since that fits with how many weeks the Oracle has run so far.

Recap of the previous stats and standings:

Tournament Wk 12 ORACLE OF THE WEEK: Jared Nethery!

  • Participation: 6.
  • Game with most points earned: Tie - the first meeting between FC Dallas and Nashville SC gave 1 point each to 5 players. The second meeting between the same teams about a week later produced the same point haul.
