I've received the blessing of Chilean and ochoseis, so I'll run the pick-em this year. I've been in contact with chan and he said he'll look into setting up the automated board feature, but for now I'll keep track of the results and manage it. It will work like last year. For most weeks there will be 10 games to choose from. Weeks of CL, Europa Cup, international games there may be 15 games to choose from. For each game choose who you believe will win or choose a draw Each correct answer is worth 1 point. Each week, at least one game will be a bonus game and I will put it in bold. For this game, predict the score. A correct answer earns 2 extra points. If you're able to choose every game correct, there will be an additional 5 bonus points awarded. Please PM your picks to me before the start of the first game. If you get your picks in after games have started I will throw out the games already in progress, but still count the games yet to be played. I'll pick games from the bigger leagues but I'm more than happy to take suggestions. Especially if there are big rivalry games coming up in the Brazilian, Argentinian leagues, etc. FINAL STANDINGS 1. clemsontyger - 82 2. BH - 78 3. NATigerXIII - 76 4. BuckeyeGunners - 69 5. ChileanNole - 68 6. Jorts - 49 7. Rabdoid - 44 8. The Goat - 42 9. Aequitas - 38 10. bwi2 - 30 11. NittanyKnight - 13 12. ochoseis - 11 13. rzpsusp - 10 14. ucgators - 8 15. Cza -4 15. rubberguard - 4 Thanks to everyone for participating.
Re: Soccer Board Pick Em Week 1 Thanks to bwi2 for the heads-up. ESPN schedule was incorrect. Borussia Dortmund is playing Wolfsburg, not Werder Bremen. So Dortmund Wolfsburg is the game to choose.
Re: Soccer Board Pick Em Week 1 what is the time of the first game? or when do picks have to be turned in? I'll pin the thread now.
Re: Soccer Board Pick Em Week 1 First game is Everton Man U, Saturday 7:45 ET. Picks should be in by then. Any picks submitted after I'll throw out the games that already happened or are in progress, but keep the ones still upcoming. Thanks for the pin.

Re: Soccer Board Pick Em Week 3 (Week 3 Scores Updated) WEEK 4 GAMES Tottenham Aston Villa Mainz TSG Hoffenheim Chivas USA LA Galaxy Chelsea Arsenal Sevilla Atletico Madrid Inter Juventus Lazio Brescia Borussia Dortmund Bayern Munich Pick the score Bayer Leverkusen Werder Bremen Trabzonspor Besiktas First game is Saturday morning, so have the picks in by then. How do you guys feel about games from the mid-tier leagues? I included a game this week from the Turkish League. Is everyone ok with that? and games from similar leagues (Greece, Belgium, Russia, etc)? I'd limit it to either huge rivalries or big games against teams near the top of the table. Any input would be helpful.
