arenaross Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 Lads...help me out. We're doing this at work, rules are thus: Here's how you play: 1. Choose four teams you think will score a maximum of 21 goals between them across the tournament 2. Every time one of your teams scores a goal, you get a point. Score more than 21 points, and you’re bust and out of the pontoon. 3. All goals scored from kick-off on 10 June 2016 to the last whistle of the final on 10 July 2016 count, except penalty shootouts. Considering just picking 4 teams from the same group. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baptista_8 Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 Pretty cool idea. 2 strong teams and 2 weaker teams? I'd have to give it a good think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry Cartman Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 As i'm really bored, from 2012: Group A: Group Stage = 14 Knockout = 2 Total = 16 Group B: Group Stage = 16 Knockout = 6 Total = 22 Group C: Group Stage = 15 Knockout = 8 Total = 23 Group D: Group Stage = 15 Knockout = 0 Total = 15 So take from that what you want regarding just picking a group Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andyh21 Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 or start with 2 teams (like 2 cards) and then after group stages its a stick or twist type of thing so pick another team if you feel your too low etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Confused Clarity Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 I like Andy's Idea. 2 Teams for the groups. Ability to stick or twist at every round subsequently. (maybe stopping at the Semis?) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
