Final Four Sweepstakes - Duluth and Rochester.

OnMAA

Vort Doen.....Heija Heija Heija
Fellow posters/predictors. The big weekend has arrived. Time to put your wisdom into some "real" predictions. (Time to have some fun, and a diversion from the rethoric :D)

Post your predicted SCORES for tonights games:

Person with the overall point total measuring the closest prediction wins the contest. You get points for the the delta between your prediction and the amount of goals you are away from each team. You will get a -1 point (which is a bonus) for picking the right winner. The objective is like golf.....finish below Par. Best you can do is a -4 on the four games today, -1 is the best score you can get per game.

Examples:
if you Predict Wisconsin 3-1 over BC and the score is 2-1 you get a -1 for the right team and a plus one for off by one for Wisconsin for a total score of 0 for that game.
if you Predict Wisconsin 3-1 over BC and the score is 1-2 you get a 0 for the right team a plus 2 for the Wisconsin delta and a plus 1 for the BC delta for a total score of 3 for that game.

As you can see by the examples, really tough to even make Par on the four games combined. We will add the Sunday games ones we know the matchups.

EDIT:Only valid predictions with whole integers will be taken

EDIT 2: Deadline for today's submission is 6PM EDT, 1 hour before puck drop.
EDIT 2B: Deadline for the D3 games is 3:30pm.

EDIT 3: You need to predict ALL SIX games to qualify for the win. If you have a lead after tonight, and "elect" to not predict the Championship games, you will be eliminated into the "Dog" house.

Note that the next round of D-III games is Saturday, not Sunday. Are you planning to include the D-III third-place game, or is this just for the championship bracket?

Championship games only, consolation games too unpredictable. Once we know the contests, people can put in their predictions.

WI - BC 4-3

Re: Final Four Sweepstakes - Duluth and Rochester.

BC 2.1-2
Cornell 2.1-2

Platt 2.1-2
Norwich 2.1-2

Is this TTT math or logic ?.
I need a translator/interpreter. Can you clarify your numbering scheme. If you are trying to be a smart allic, the rule is Integer (Whole) numbers only.

As that was not in the rules at the time of posting, I will not change my predictions.

To clarify, I'm saying BC will score 2.1 and Wisconsin will score 2. Etc.

Re: Final Four Sweepstakes - Duluth and Rochester.

Great nailbiting games in Rochester yesterday, both decided in OT. Was very impressed with Minnesota yesterday.

Here are my predictions for the Finals:

Norwich - RIT 2-1 (Puck drop tonight at 7)
Minny - Wisco 2-1 (Puck drop tomorrow at 4)
 
Re: Final Four Sweepstakes - Duluth and Rochester.

Mn - wi 3-1
