However, I would prefer it if you mix it up as being thrown in with Eljaggo, Elevenone and the Prince of Kadriorg looks like the group of death.

BowenBoys Posted June 16, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2018 I have sent PMs showing your chosen group finishing positions. I'm sure that everyone has the correct table but please check the name at the top. It has required a great deal of deliberate concentration to get them sent out. I was in Rome last night to see the wonderful Paolo Conte and spent the night at Rome airport waiting for an early flight home. What a dump! I've been in better airports in SE Asia. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BowenBoys Posted June 16, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2018 Oops! I've made a complete Horlicks of the tables sent out today. I blame the Romans. Will rectify tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BowenBoys Posted June 17, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2018 I'm afraid that the instructions I gave on how to present your numbers were not very clear. Here I'm using Group G as an example: I have assumed that the numbers 2, 4, 3, 1 represent the finishing position of each team (i.e. Belgium 1, Panama 2, Tunisia 3 & England 4) Many (if not all) of you have, more logically, written the numbers to represent the finishing position in order (i.e. Team 2 - England 1st, Team 4 - Belgium 2nd, Team 3 - Tunisia 3rd & Team 1 - Panama 4th) The reason why only some Groups are affected is that many combinations of the 4 numbers give the same outcome using either of the methods outlined above. All of your numbers were copied and pasted from your posts directly into my spreadsheet so there is zero chance that your entries have been altered in the process. I have revised the data and I will send out amended tables today. Apologies for the confusion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

partickthedog Posted June 17, 2018 Report Share Posted June 17, 2018 I think that my ridiculous choices confused BB, so I will take the blame and volunteer to be the first scapegoat of the new season. There will be plenty more to come. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
