Bit frustrating my post for the final has disappeared.

Where did you put it?

I put it in the final thread about a minute after it appeared. Your post said “still editing” or something in it. Never mind.

Odd. It hasnt appeared in the mod logs as being deleted. I have never known this before. Must have happened just as I was locking or unlocking the thread.

Incidentally, I am collating the scores as we speak.

The Red Dragon 2019 World Matchplay Prediction Game!

Thanks to the generosity of the guys at Red Dragon, our forum sponsor, two sets of darts are up for grabs. These are up to the value of £40, a more expensive set and you simply pay the difference.
There will also be a side competition with a £10 cash entry, this is not compulsory. Depending on number of cash players, the prize structure and payout will be decided by me once the comp is underway. £100 or more will necessitate at least two prizes, less than £100 and it’s winner takes all.
Please pm me for bank details, I will keep a list of current payees updated on this thread underneath this post.
This thread will be updated with the current tables and rules etc.

Before each round I shall start a thread where I shall ask you to predict the SCORE of each match, as well as a few bonuses to mix it up a bit.

Scoring is as follows:

First Round - 2 points for correct result, 5 points for correct result AND score.
Second Round - 3 points for correct result, 7 points for correct result AND score
QF's - 6 points for correct result, 13 points for correct result AND score
SF's - 8 points for correct result, 17 points for correct result AND score
Final - 10 points for correct result, 21 points for correct result AND score

Bonuses will generally be 5 points each, although this will differ for the Final.

Be aware there is a short turnaround between each round ending and the next starting - so be aware of this when entering!!

In your prediction for the FIRST ROUND I shall ask you to specify a set of darts of your choosing from the Red Dragon catalogue-simply click the banner at the top of the page. Entries without this vital information will be ineligible for the darts prizes

A template will follow soon.

Good luck!

DEADLINE FOR ENTRIES - Start of play on the first Saturday (around ten minutes into the Sky broadcast)



Smallprint

The highest two scores will win the darts, the prizes will be won only if a set of darts has been selected and included in the first round prediction, there is space on the template. If any of the first two have no darts selected, the prize will revert to third, and so on.

The cash prizes will be won by the player(s) highest in the final rankings of those playing in the cash competition.

If a tie, then bonuses will be disregarded and the player with the highest aggregate score across all five round excluding bonuses shall win. If still tied, the player(s) with the highest Finals Night score will win in the tie.
If still tied after this, then countback will take place, looking at who had the highest Semi Final night score, highest Quarter Final night score etc, until a tie can be split. In the unlikely event there is still a tie, a mini-prediction game involving the next available PDC event after the final will be used to split it.

The decision of myself and the site moderators are final.

Entries made after the published deadline in each round may be accepted at my discretion, minus the bonuses and matches that have been played already.

All entries made by duplicate accounts will be disregarded.
