How To Play
“PICK– A – WINNER 22”
2nd October 2010 to 4th December 2010
Select 2 teams to win in the English Premier League each Round and you could win a minimum of € 1,000
[A] Commencing with the English Premiership fixtures on the 2nd October2010 (Round 1) through to 4th December 2010 (Round 9) select two teams that you think will win a league game that weekend (Saturday, Sunday or Monday). The only condition is that you cannot select teams that you previously selected. In other words, you can only select a team once in the entire competition.
During the course of the competition you will use 18 of the 20 teams in the Premier League, so plan ahead carefully!
[B] If either of the teams that you have selected win, you will be awarded 3 pts. If your selected team/s win and it is an “away” win, you will be awarded 1 “bonus” point. If your selected team/s win and score 3 or more goals you will be awarded 0.5 “bonus” point. If your selected team/s win and keeps a clean sheet you will be awarded 0.5 “bonus” point.
If your teams draw or looses you will be awarded 0 points.
The maximum score you can achieve in each round is 10 pts. (5 pts per team) – However:-
i. In any of the rounds 2 to 5 you can nominate that round as your “Joker Round”. If one of your teams win, you will receive double points for your “Joker Round”. If both of your teams win in that round, you will receive double points for whichever of your selected teams achieve the higher number of points. Therefore, the maximum score you can achieve in your “Joker Round” is 15 pts.
ii. Then again, in any of the rounds 6 to 9, you can nominate one of those rounds as your second “Joker Round” and the same scoring mechanism will apply as in (i) above.
[C] Your selection each round must be made on-line to www.pickawinner.ie by 12 noon on the day preceding that round of fixtures – usually a Friday. Any change to this deadline will be advised to players in advance.
Should you not record your selection on time – you will RANDOMLY be assigned (for that round) two teams that you have not selected to date.
Should you overlook to nominate a round as your “Joker Round”, it will automatically be selected in Round 5 and/or Round 9, as the case may be, provided that you have submitted your selections on time.
If you have not used your “Joker Round” by round 5, and do not record your selection on time for this round, you will forfeit the benefits of double points. The same principle applies to round 9.
[D] The winner will be the player with the most points at the end of the competition.
[E] Should one or more players tie at the end of the competition the prize money will be shared.
