CONTEST #2 - pick the winners and the goal differential contest
Use these directions if you wish to enter contests 1 and 2
only. If you wish to enter all 4 contests, use the rules for
contests 3 and 4. If you wish to enter contest 1 only, use the
rules for contest 1.
Information required:
1)name, address(city,state), e-mail address,
team affiliation (optional), league affiliation (optional).
2)for each game, choose the winning team and the goal
differential i.e. the number of goals scored by the
winning team minus the number of goals scored by the
losing team). This number should be entered as a number
preceded by a plus (+) sign (e.g. +2)
3)for the total tournament, predict how many games go into OT
and the total goals scored in the tournament.
Contest scoring:
1) For each first round game (games 1-4 where all participants
are known in advance), 4 points will be awarded for
picking the winning team. Additional points will be
awarded to those who pick the winning team as follows:
a) predict the goal differential exactly and 3 additional
points will be awarded
b) if your predicted goal differential differs from the
actual by one, 2 additional points are awarded
c) if your predicted goal differential differs from the
actual by two, 1 additional point is awarded
Goal differential points are only awarded if the winner of
the game is correctly chosen. Incorrect winners result in
zero points regardless of the differential.
2) For each second round game (games 5-8 where only one of the
participants are known in advance), 6 points will be
awarded for picking the winning team. Additional points
will be awarded to those who pick the winning team as
follows:
a) predict the goal differential exactly and 3 additional
points will be awarded
b) if your predicted goal differential differs from the
actual by one, 2 additional points are awarded
c) if your predicted goal differential differs from the
actual by two, 1 additional point is awarded
Goal differential points are only awarded if the winner of
the game is correctly chosen. Incorrect winners result in
zero points regardless of the differential.
3) For each game of the Phrozen Phour (games 9-11 where none
of the participants are known in advance), 8 points will
be awarded for picking the winning team. Additional
points will be awarded to those who pick the winning
team as follows:
a) predict the goal differential exactly and 3 additional
points will be awarded
b) if your predicted goal differential differs from the
actual by one, 2 additional points are awarded
c) if your predicted goal differential differs from the
actual by two, 1 additional point is awarded
Goal differential points are only awarded if the winner of
the game is correctly chosen. Incorrect winners result in
zero points regardless of the differential.
4) If, at the end of the tournament, the preceding does not
determine a winner, the first tiebreaker will be the
total number of games that go into OT.
If the number of OT games does not determine a winner, the
second tiebreaker used will be the total number of goals
scored in the tournament. You must specify the total
number of goals scored in the appropriate line in the
tiebreaker section of the entry form. If that line is left
blank, I will use zero for the total goals scored.
If no winner is determined after tiebreakers, co-winners
will be declared.
