Yes... which is irritating as I thought I'd picked for all of the matches for this gameweek as I was able to on the new-style IKTS. At least the scores were poor as mentioned.

Not sure if I have broken anything but the scores under our usernames all show 0.

Main leaderboard seems fine (other than Big Bird's leading margin :wink: )

(I entered the monday score earlier this evening and did the database fix thing - no idea if the scores were right or wrong immediately before this)

Is there any chance of getting sets 35 & 36 fixtures on the system soon? I am conscious that with Easter round the corner, some people might be away.

I've been struggling to get onto the Goals section from the dropdowns.

Found I could get in with this link -
http://www.fiso.co.uk/games/pred/index.php" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

- but nothing works when clicked except the odd page that gets you to another menu. Nothing involving scores or tables or picks (ie from database??) seems accesible?

Is it me or a bigger problem??

(PS Apologies for the lack of CL Stylee updates due to the above)

It seems to have a problem hovering the cursor to drop down, but if you highlight and use the keyboard arrow keys + enter, it works.

I'm struggling to get into the pages to enter the scores.

I might have entered the midweek ones :lol: but I'm not sure and I think the weekend ones all need doing too

If anyone else who has access could get things up to date that would be appreciated

I did one on here for the Euro finals in 2012, bluenosey won it with 23 pts. from the 24 games.
But only 8 took part.
Had an in work game too, which had over 30 players, playing for a £90+ kitty (£3 each).
I may do one if there isn't an official Fiso endorsed comp, and if there is sufficient interest, but not for a cash prize.

The scores in this game are a shambles.
What did you have to do to get the extra 100 points?

Why let a cursory glance at the leaderboard get in the way of such a hilarious put-down?

Rob / any other admins,

I'm struggling to enter this week's results.

Just got:
Some of the results were not processed:
•Man Utd vs. Norwich on 2014-04-26: Database Error1.
•West Brom vs. West Ham on 2014-04-26: Database Error1.
•Swansea vs. Aston Villa on 2014-04-26: Database Error1.
•Stoke City vs. Tottenham on 2014-04-26: Database Error1.
•Fulham vs. Hull on 2014-04-26: Database Error1.
•Southampton vs. Everton on 2014-04-26: Database Error1.
•Crystal Palace vs. Man City on 2014-04-27: Database Error1.
•Liverpool vs. Chelsea on 2014-04-27: Database Error1.
•Sunderland vs. Cardiff on 2014-04-27: Database Error1.
•Arsenal vs. Newcastle on 2014-04-28: Database Error1.

Also had 'database Error1' when to tried to only enter the saturday lunchtime result on saturday afternoon. This was my first chance to try again (The site won't even open for me on certain pages from my work laptop so I can only try at home).

Apologies to all waiting on the scores (but, hey, Big Bird has won anyway)

Cheers for the heads-up, murf, I've manually sorted it for now and will look into what caused the error later this week.

Think El Tel has a point

I've not kept as much notice of it since the scores went from our profiles but even though I forgot to predict a round I seem to have gone from about 25 points off the top to 150 off in the space of 4 rounds.

Ah that was too subtle from El Tel, but I've now had a look and the week before last results weren't processed properly. I've re-run things. Hopefully the leaderboard looks sensible - let me know if not.

murf, I think I've sorted the issue from results this week too.

Just the scores on the profiles to sort now...

2 weeks and 23 picks to go. 2 sets and an intervening midweek miniset.

Big Bird surely has it in the bag. I (joint) top scored last week with 13 to regain second place form Colbert (8) but Big Bird's 12 means he remains unchallenged.

Shaggy365 is on Rookster's back for 4th. 6th to 9th looks close too and a whole stack of people want 10th.

Position Points Username
1 314 Big Bird
2 302 murf
3 300 Colbert
4 289 Rookster
5 287 Shaggy365
6 280 lano14
7 278 DrBunker
7 278 Spinynorman
9 277 jeffmcgow
10 273 scopsm
11 272 bluenosey
12 270 toffeelover

I'd be chuffed with top 5 but it's going to be tight.

Is there any record somewhere of the previous top tens?

Just realised the winning scores (using same point system) are on the homepage....

The top 5 for 2009/10 were:
1 322 ride em ragged
2 317 ferg
3 316 lano14
4 314 Big Bird
4 314 adamkenno

The prize winners from season 2008/09 were as follows:
1 319 Shaggy365
1 319 Nabby
3 318 Big Bird
3 318 topnotchbloke

The prize winners from our inaugral season in season 2007/08 were as follows:
1 333 Crompton
2 330 ferg
3 328 Spencer4

Scores are a bit lower this year. Factoring up the leading scores (38/20)
1 165 Big Bird :arrow: 313.5
2 163 Darbyand :arrow: 309.7
3 162 PNE4PREM :arrow: 307.8
4 161 Rookster & Colbert :arrow: 305.9
6 155 bluenosey & murf :arrow: 294.5

I guess the bigger teams have lost more often (unpredictable) and there have been more 'whacky' 6-3 type scorelines that not many are going to get.

(Haven't dug out scores from the proper good old days when it was Premiership Predictions and not the new, soulless, automated(ish) version)
Big Bird is already half a point ahead of his projected total. Can he match Crompton's record of 333??

Excellent. The only problem is my score. I gambled that Fulham and Cardiff when threatened with relegation would at least put in a little effort and the likes of Sunderland and Palace wouldn't know they are safe.....

After the midweek games nearly everything will be sorted so the weekend set could be won by a random number generator....
