        We got a nice field of competitors, for a while there I was afraid we weren't going to break 20 but we're at 22 players now, with 5 from WPC, 8 from Poly and 9 from CFC -- not too shabby considering how last-minute this all was. I'm kinda hoping we can at least approach 30 before this thing is over though, so sign up if you still haven't!

        Well I did specifically come back to Poly so I could humiliate myself with my bad predictions in this thread.

                    You should also make this a site-competition.
                    Make an avg score of each site (poly, wpc and cfc) and see which site performs best

                        Nice last-minute rush: 31 players at kick-off, with CFC's Weik in the lead for the moment as the only one to predict 0-0 for the opening match

                            An Uzbeck referee for the oppening match was a joke of FIFA, right?
                            Hate this moron. I was less than 20 minutes from my perfect 1-0 prediction.

                            I would like to change my prediction for Group G:
                            1. Brazil
                            2. Cфte d'Ivoire

                            Bye, Ronaldo.

                              Wow, what a snoozefest, this group is shaping up to be every bit as poor as it was expected to be... Congrats to OFITG and Serb for getting it right though

                              Two draws today, no one saw that coming. Net result: a lot of people sharing first place and a WHOLE lot of people with no points at all yet. Hopefully tomorrow will be a bit more productive.
