Unless someone decides to amend their prediction before kick-off*, which wouldn't be breaking any rules... ;-)


*Allowing for EDF clock time delay

It would be breaking the rules.


You are not allowed to do that!

Of course you are. On PredictAddict you can change your predictions as many times as you want peior to kick off, after which it 'freezes'. If a prediction has been made on here after the official kick-off time then it will become void. I will work out what the time delay is after I've posted this...


Currently 5mins, so any predictions posted within 5mins of kick off will be void...

Grab your passport and dust down your Sergio Tacchini's, it's time to go continental.

As per the EDF Cup, the top 8 players will go through to the quarter final head-to-heads.

It's been re-arranged for next Monday, 24th...

By my calculations, 2 players definitely out, and it's 1 from 4 for the other wooden spoon place.

In the event of 2 or more players finishing on the same number of points, the player with the highest number of correct scores from all 3 rounds will go through. If it's still a tie, Ots gets to toss his double headed threepenny bit again...

You're right RD.


I don't think I was including the Sheff Wed predictions when I did the calculations.


I still don't think you should be allowed to change them. The fact that you can do it on predict addict is totally different because you can't see anyone else's predictions!


Just my opinion.


I certainly won't be changing mine to 2-1 just so I'll stay above you!

There are pros and cons with a ban on changing predictions. For instance if Barca announced today that Messi, Iniesta and Xavi were injured in training, I'd want to be able to change my prediction to reflect this. I think if someone did what you describe, it would be quite obvious and their 'win' would be tarnished. There are other loopholes in the format too, for instance there's nothing to stop someone waiting until everyone else has posted their predictions before posting their own. I can think of one player who is regularly one of the last to post their predictions... coincidence or tactics? I guess it comes down to the morals of the individual...

What would you do AM if you were one point behind me, and we both made the same prediction for the the Shef Wed game, thereby it was a 'dead rubber' and you couldn't beat me? Personally I'd have no problem if you changed your prediction. I think that is different than someone deliberately posting a matching prediction to stop a rival from catching them...

Not sure about everyone else but I never look at what else people have predicted

It's all about the fun of getting it right? or am I missing something


as for changing predictions I would rather get them in and then leave alone

that way everyone in same boat

I wouldn't change them on principle. Plus I'd feel like I cheated. I'm not that desperate to get into the top eight.

    • OK, good suggestion and it appears that the after-market price is about £260. But if that that was fitted ex-factory then the cost would be substantially less and certainly a small fraction of the price of a high-end car.
