            Fvck. Do I get extra score if I predicted the right advance in goals? IE we have 2 goals more than they do?

                      Holy moly. I predicted both of today's matches correctly. Don't know what's the matter with me today.

                            Yay! Thanks. Between that and a good prediction of the Deutschland-Sweden game, I might claw my way back towards the top yet! (Of course now that I've said this I will lose most horribly.)
