    just a little game if anyone is intrested, did it 4 years ago with a couple of mates, we just played for a pint but proved to be pretty succsesfull

    basicly everyone chooses 4 teams from the world cup, its really simple

    you pick one top ranked team.. england, brazil, italy.. ect ect
    you pick one second ranked team.. sweaden, holland, ect ect
    you pick one third ranked team.. Usa, Australia ect ect
    you pick one forth ranked team…
    well you get the idea

    for every game …
    your top rank team wins you get 3 points
    4 points for every second ranked team win
    5 points for every third ranked team win
    6 points for every fouth ranked team win

    for every game
    your top rank team draws you get 1 point
    2 points for every second ranked team
    3 points for every third ranked team
    4 points for every fouth ranked team

    for every game your top rank team loses, you lose 2 points

    if your top ranked team wins the world cup you get 5 points
    10 points if your second rank team wins the cup
    15 points if your third rank team wins the cup
    30 points if your fouth rank team wins the cup

    it really is that simple, can you predict which underdog will go on to surpise people? can you predict which top ranked team will go all the way, or can you avoid the team that fails to make an impression

    I’ve spotted a slight flaw in the game…

    The top ranked team earns least points. :-

    I – Czech Republic
    2 – Germany
    3 – Brazil
    4 – England

    of course they do, but you don’t get to decide which teams are from the top ranked pool and which teams are not

    i don’t think i made the rules very clear :)

    you selection can only contain one of the top ranked teams.. all the top rank teams are the teams that were given a seeding..

    you need to choose

    choice 1 _________ a top ranked team
    choice 2 _________ a rank 2 team
    choice 3 _________ a rank 3 team
    choice 4 _________ a rank 4 team
