Soapbox Oracle - Week 17

The Oracle of the Week is Takeyabue!

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.

One NWSL game (Thorns vs Reign) was postponed to Sept. 30th due to smoke creating unplayable conditions. Picks will be saved for that game if no new ones are made for that week. This week’s survey takes us to the end of the currently scheduled games for MLS & USL, and one game out from NWSL. There should be more MLS games added for October however.

Recap of the previous stats and standings:

ORACLE OF THE WEEK: Takeyabue (again) with 26 pts!

  • Participation: 6, plus 2 carryovers from last week.
  • Game with most points earned: Columbus Crew beating newcomers Nashville SC earned 11 points split between players.
  • Game with least points earned: Real Salt Lake shocking loss to Vancouver Whitecaps awarded no points at all.
  • Bonus/Tiebreaker: No bonus this week.

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