Have tried to update scores as accurately as possible. If you think there is any error with your final total then please GIVE ME A SHOUT!!!! so I can check/rectify as soon as possible.
Thought this was a bit of fun, and I forgot to say good, bad or ugly and 2 games in I remembered. Come on guys, anyone object to adding me to the list.
Only 2 players who predicted 3/3 today by the look of things.
Big well done to Antnix and Donut64 who picked up 15 and 30 points respectively.
Once again the lead changes hands........he may look like he has got a cake for a head, but he has correctly predicted 9 out of 11 outcomes so far.....Arise Donut64, who sits on 40 points. WAINBARBER has also got 9 from 11 correct and has 18 points.
Only player to get 3/3 today was ratout who moves to -35 points.
Still an "Ugly" out in front though....Cake-Head dropped 5 points today, but remains top of the pile with 35 points. Well done Donut64.
WAINBARBER remains in 2nd place and moves to 22 points. decodave and millwise11 sit very handy on 18 points and there are about a dozen players on 14 points.
Good Luck for tomorrow, when the highly fancied Spaniards enter the fold!!!!!!!
Thought I was unlucky to get -5 today but I would take -5 for tomorrow if you offered it me right now! I have an impending doom about tomorrow! Good luck to ever over takes me tomorrow!
11 from 14 is awesome mate...and you would be 35 points better off if it was not for Barry Chuckle in goal. if you can keep pulling 2/3 and 3/3 consistently you wont be far away at the end.

I dont know why but I feel my reign at the top will soon be over its not a bad thing. I never really expected to be in this place in the first place it is one of the bonuses of having a negative attitude any success in anything is always a pleasant surprise!
Sorry Donut64, I talked you up big time yesterday and then what happens....0/3 and you lose 75 points. Sorry Mate.....I Jonah`d you Quagmire style.
That aside, the Spain result tripped up everyone except 2 of you who predicted a Swiss win...(a Spain win today was the biggest banker in this competition with only 4 people predicting they would not win this match) Its a funny old game, as Greavsie used to say.
As for the leaders, it was a disastrous day for Donut who goes from 40 points to -35 in the space of 3 games, and we now have a 3 way tie at the top on 22 points between millwise11, WAINBARBER and BARCAGAZZA.
2 who predicted a swiss win your havin a laugh, they must be coukoo,and i couldnt hear their cow bells celebrating over the noise of them poxy trumpets haha. your doing a good job keeping up with all these results.
A 3 way tie at the top.... Things just hotting up here & hopefully on the pitch aswell, my worst day so far with 0/3 but probably the best day's footie so far! Are we finally seeing the World Cup come alive? Let's hope so!
well now we into the second round of games teams should know that they gotta go for it, hopefully it will mean better games, thats why i like the K/O stages, all or nothing.
Points were pretty scarce for lots of you today but surprisingly there were four of you who managed to get all three outcomes correct. Well done to kennybad, ckd, chrisbhoy and baconc87.
Leader board does not change a great deal. BARCAGAZZA joins millwise11 on 24 points.
After yesterdays wash-out (prediction wise) there were 10 of you who correctly predicted 3/3 today. Would have been a nice priced treble too.
millwise11 and BARCAGAZZA both added 2 points to their totals and lead the way on 28 points. There are 4 players poised just 2 points behind though, so it could all change tomorrow.
Hello Emily - good job keeping up the scores, it must be a bit of a mission every day but it is much appreciated. However .... you've robbed me of 6 points on my best day yet! I had my first 3/3 day. I had 20 yesterday so I think you must have just missed out my scores for today. By my reckoning I should make up the 5th man trailing the leader by two points on 26 now. I think this is right - I did double check to make sure.

Sorry about that Chaff, have updated your score now mate. You got 2 points for match 26, but you had match 24 as a "H" (Australia 1-1 Ghana) and match 25 as a "D" (Holland 1-0 Japan) so you were only 2 points short.
Sky Rich will be back this week (we all hope) so once he catches up and works his way through the substantial "Aggro" pile that always accumulates in his absence, he should be able to let us know the prizes that he has kindly agreed to throw in.
Cheers Mate.....and remember everyone, if you have a query regarding your total...Please give me a shout.
Well done to Em for keeping us all updated on the scores. About 15 of us within 6 pts of each other. Maybe CHAFF got mixed up with the game number and the order that it was played.
Eg the HOLLAND game was first up yesterday but it was match 25 and the OZZIE game that was next up was actually game number 24.
Looking forward to the three games today, come on the DRAW, HOME, HOME.
Think you are right decodave, Chaff has got a couple of the games mixed up....but is still well in the mix.
As for the tourney itself, I can see it going to the wire. The scoring system was tested out and the Bads/Uglies would have needed around 3 from 4 correct (or 36 from 48) to be competitive. Lots of scary outcomes have (probably) scuppered their chances now.
One good thing is that we are almost certainly guaranteed a few cracking games in the next week.
It is a pleasure to be running this competition for you all decodave....its the outcomes that are headscratchers!!!

I would personally like to extend a Big Thank You to everybody who took part and left messages of support, and a special thanks go to STEVEMAX and lucy4, who both recorded everyones entries, just to help me out incase of any problems.
http://www.fifa.com/worldcup/matches/index.html here is the link for the matches. The original post has been moved
Surprisingly (after the England game) it is an "Ugly" that is out in the lead with 15 points after 5 matches.
Yes folks, the Yellow Jersey will be taken into Sundays matches by Donut64
Well Done Donut, but must give a shout-out to WAINBARBER though, who has managed to predict 5/5 so far and sits on 10 points.
Good Luck for your selections on Day 3 everyone.
Right bit of a bottleneck at the top after day 3...but it looks like WAINBARBER is top of the pile with 14 points.
3/3 correct today for lucy4, Patching99, Labrat64, jsm180, banky1 and BARCAGAZZA.
Well Done to you all.
If we can get a booby-prize thrown in from SkyRich, then the man you are looking to catch is Ansoitis7 who is sitting on -200. Lordy.
As always, if you have any queries regarding your score then send me a PM.
p.s are open to bribes ems
cheers good job m8

******UPDATE AFTER DAY 5******
Only player to get 3/3 today was ratout who moves to -35 points.

WAINBARBER remains in 2nd place and moves to 22 points.

Good Luck for Thursday everyone!!!!!!
Great competition. Cant believe 2 people picked the Swiss to beat Spain, maybe they could give
us some numbers for the lottery on Saturday.
Do the scores carry on for the knockout stages, right thru to the final??????
Should see a few more goals and a few more upsets for the UGLIES!!!!!!!!!!!!
Points were pretty scarce for lots of you today but surprisingly there were four of you who managed to get all three outcomes correct. Well done to kennybad, ckd, chrisbhoy and baconc87.
Leader board does not change a great deal. BARCAGAZZA joins millwise11 on 24 points.
Good Luck for todays games everyone!!!!!!!!!!!
WOW, what a truly awful day for predictions. Not surprisingly nobody managed to get 3/3 and only -JINKY- managed to get 2/3.
A truly amazing 51 of you got 0/3 in todays matches.
2 way lead at the top between millwise11 and BARCAGAZZA who both predicted a draw in the USA/Slovenia game and move on to 26 points.
Most of the "Ugly" predictions now look to be out with the washing....way too many odd outcomes.
Good Luck for tomorrow everyone!!!!!!!!
Chalk and Cheese.......

Said it before, will say it again.......Strange Game.
Big well done to Patching99 who correctly predicted 3/3 today.
millwise11 and BARCAGAZZA are joined at the top by TORTUS007....all three are on 30 points.
Would say Good Luck for Mondays games, but there don't seem much point!!!!!!!!
any booby prizes?
