What kind of order is the Golden Boat winner list in. I can't seem to find my guy

The list is taken from one of my sports books, so it's likely in odds order.

Mario Gomez is at the top of my list. Maybe I downloaded an earlier version? I have everything done, but that, and I can't find Fred for the life of me. Making me rethink picking him...

I'll check when back on my computer, seems odd if he's not there.

Well, he's not on the list, so leave it blank... you get the field.

[cheese]

Would like to see it

 

[Tiger Fan]

blog it up Char!

 

[charvik]

Alright, master_sheet preview is here: http://1drv.ms/1mwRv7A

It's pretty large, around 1Mb, so download it locally instead of trying to open it from the site.

ETA: I removed a lot of the graphics from the file to keep it as small as possible...

 

[charvik]

I hid the individual sheets that are there, but maybe once we get all submissions in, we show them?

 

[fatguyinalittlecoat]

Yes please. More fun if we can see what everyone picked.

Nice - will the final have each individuals picks? Or will we need to just track ourselves?

 

[cheese]

You would have to email to me like you did with the entry sheet. No big deal if that's a hassle though.

(I wasn't able to find the 2002 pool, but then again there's been a board migration and purging since, and I'm not sure if I ran it here or on a side board.)

33 now... Cheese found a potential flaw in the scoring in the master sheet. I am going to check that out tonight.

Let me know if you find anything else.

Found the issue, I missed a 0 in the calculation sheet, which should have been a "".

Thanks, and let me know if you find anything else.

All edits should be in there as well.

I don't have the USA scoring a single goal.

Is that bad?

I don't have the USA scoring a single goal.

Is that bad?

FWIW, the US has never been shut out at a WC. Even the poor college kids we sent to slaughter back in 1990 scored a couple.

But there is a first time for everything of course.

For this format I could have them losing 999-0 and it doesn't really matter right? Because getting even one draw seems like a great result here.

I have them beating Germany. No joke.

 

[culdeus]

So If I have Brazil losing to Argentina in the Semis can I just leave the rest of the tournament blank knowing that all the stadiums will be burnt down?

I don't think you would find a single soccer fan who would tell you that the US getting 1 point from this tournament is a "great" result.

It would put your total goals tie-breaker in doubt.

semi-pro tip- Ghana's likely back line averages 23yo IIRC, USA scores 2-3
