Prediction Game Rules

At a glance

• 1 point per correct prediction
• No deduction for wrong predictions
• Predictions per slot: matches in the slot minus one

How the prediction game works

You predict the winner of a match, not the exact score. A correct prediction earns one point, a wrong one costs nothing — guessing is free.

Who can predict

Anyone with access to the app, even without a team of their own. You can't predict your own match — betting on your own win wouldn't be a real prediction.

How many predictions per slot

A slot's prediction budget is the number of matches in that slot minus one; the exact number is shown right where you predict. Anyone with a team can't predict their own match and has one fewer choice in their own slot — the budget evens out exactly that difference for everyone.

A match can be predicted until its slot begins — including the tournament's very first slot, right up to kick-off. The placement matches of the final round can only be predicted once the organisers release their pairings, and like any other match only until that slot's kick-off.

When a prediction becomes visible

A prediction is always private and stays that way — only you can see how you predicted, including the outcome and points. The only public part is the leaderboard: name, points, hit rate. One exception: tournament organisers (admins) can see every prediction.

The leaderboard

Ranking is by total points; ties share the same rank. The hit rate (correct divided by submitted predictions) doesn't affect the rank, but shows how accurate someone was with fewer predictions.
