I think David puts his picks in late cos he has a machine that collates everyone else's and comes up with the best case scenario results. And Mod5 is in on it.

Right.  And nobody else can read the collating I present for everyone to see. 

Hopefully, people are taking stock of the performances in the League and not committing any funds to the bookies...although being a contrarian might be profitable enough, especially as far as Monaghan league games went.

That's the sort of talk a boy with a big algorithm machine would come out with.

A final total of 61 entered this week.  Of course, anyone that missed this week can enter future weeks and possibly might catch up to the leaders very quickly.  I suppose much will depend on what algorithm they choose.

Back to the 61:

Tyrone 60 Fermanagh 1
Leitrim 44 London 17
Sligo 61 New York 0


The algorithm that is the collective genius of the 61 also says:

Tyrone to win by 9 or 10 points
Sligo by about the same or maybe a bit higher at 10 to 11
Leitrim by 2

Will do a final tally on Week 1 on Sunday...unless FermGael has a reason to post on Saturday night.

Yes it's inherently that and/or that I am incredibly lazy and don't bother thinking about it to the Friday. Next week may be no different depending on DRA hearing dates

Firstly, a reminder on the scoring system: 1 point for correctly predicting the winner and a bonus point for getting the margin of victory for that team within a range.  Range A is 1-3 points, B is 4-6 points, C is 7-9 points and so on.  Margin of victory for extra time games will be the margin at the end of extra time.  Margin of victory after penalties will be 1 point.

So this weekends results saw Tyrone win by 7...so anyone who predicted Tyrone to win by 7, 8 or 9 get the bonus point.  Similarly, Letrim's 4 point victory gives the bonus to those who picked them by 4,5 or 6 points.  Sligo got there by 4 as well, so 4,5,or 6 got you the bonus.
There is no extra bonus for getting the margin of victory exactly correct.

This weeks results, with 6 points on offer from the 3 games, show 2 entrants on the max...well done to Benny Harp and Hoof Hearted.

Edit: Major revamp to leaderboard as Mod5 made an error in the first attempt.  Think all is correct now, but let me know if you think differently.
