Weekly Selections
Make a selection for all games available for the weekly round
or
Make one Double Up selection from the nominated Double Up game (one option only) each week (nominate the winner, then tick the double up option next to your selection)
Once submitted your selections can not be altered (by anyone, including Admin)
All selections must be made by the nominated close off time prior to the first game of the round.
Each round will be closed and locked off at the nominated close time, and no additional selections can be accepted for that round
Points Allocation and Scoring
1 point is awarded for any correct selection
0 points are awarded for any incorrect selection
100 bonus points are awarded (in addition) for correctly picking the round (all winners), the bonus is available for every round (be it 8 games or less)
You may nominate a Draw as a selection for any game (a draw is still a possible result at the end of golden point extra time), and if correct will count as a correct selection (worth 1 point)
In the event of a drawn result for any game points can only be awarded for a correct draw selection, all other selections will be treated as losing selections
Double Up Option
May be played at any time (from Round 2 onwards)
Can only be played on the nominated game
Can only be played on one game
To play the Double Up option make your selection in one game only from those available for this round, then tick the double up box for that game
Must be played at least 5 times during the season (minimum 5 times)
Can be played as many times as you wish during the season (no maximum)
A correct Double Up selection will double your current points score
An incorrect Double Up selection will result in the loss of all points and return your score to zero
Golden Point extra time does count toward the final winner of a game
A Drawn game result equals no winning result and so all double up selections will be judged as losing selections
In the event of there being a shortened round or change to schedule Admin will advise of any changes for that week or what the Double Up option will be for that round.
Draw Option
You may nominate a Draw as a selection for any game (a draw is still a possible result at the end of golden point extra time), and if correct will count as a correct selection (worth 1 point).

For those interested we make no money out of this and it runs at a longer term loss, we have spent over $3,000 on the backend software that drives the tips input, double up caculations and scoreboard, and then a further $600 approx. each year on site maintenance and web hosting costs.
Admin / Web Site Costs
$11 from every entry fee will be retained toward the ongoing annual running costs of the competition including website updates, hosting, software etc.
