2011 Ladbrokes.Com PDC World Darts Championship Prediction League
Right folks, I had referenced to this a while ago, just something to add an extra bit of Pie and Bovril 'spice' to the procedings. There is no particular sign up date, you may start predictions at any stage during the tournament, and you won't be penalised for missing out, but you would lose out on gaining potential points!
. For the FIRST ROUND of the World Championship, (16th to 23rd) all predictions have to be either Messaged to me or Posted on the thread before 7PM on each of the nights.
.After a lot of thinking, I've decided that it would probably be best to exclude Preliminary games from this, to save from confusion and a few of the players will be unkown to us.
.However for First Round matches featuring a Preliminary winner, you will post predictions for the two potential fixtures, e.g. Phil Taylor Vs Gary Mawson or Juanito Gionson. These will be posted before the 7PM deadline. HOWEVER, following the conclusion of the respective Prelim match, you may ammend your prediction BEFORE 10PM on each night. Either post this on the thread in a new post, or PM me. This may sound a little daft at first, but It seems to be the best way to ensure that posters who won't be around during each night will not miss out.
Example for First Night:
Paul Nicholson 3-1 Steve Farmer
Steve Beaton 3-1 Mark Hylton
Mark Webster 3-0 Steve Maish
Phil Taylor 3-0 Gary Mawson / 3-0 Juanito Gionson (CAN BE AMMENDED BEFORE 10PM ON EACH NIGHT)
.POINTS SYSTEM
Very simple, you will recieve ONE point for a correct winner, and TWO further points if the score is also correct.
e.g. You Predict, Phil Taylor 3-0 Gary Mawson, but the actual result is 3-1 Taylor, you recieve ONE point.
. As we progress throughout the tournament and the potential winning margin widens, then additional points will be added.
. You CAN post predictions days in advance, but they will still have to conform with the relevant deadlines.
. I will be taking part in this too. But all my predictions will be posted in the thread. (The above example in Bold are my predictions for Thursday night)
I hope this works, and will maybe add a bit of an extra excitment to what will be a great tournament. Please take part, and good luck!
