 Q.  How many people are 
    registered to join in?A.  Since we started in 2005 we've had an average of about 15 people (a mixture
 of adults and kids) each season in the various 
    competitions.
 Q.  
	How many different leagues are there for the Predictor competition?A.  There is currently one division with all teams in. If there are 
	enough players
 for two divisions then a promotion and relegation 
	battle takes place too.
 Q.  
	Are there any other 
    competitions?A.  Yes, there are various cup competitions throughout the season, including
 an FA Cup one, and our own knockout 'Autumn Cup' competition. 
	We also
 have a World Cup and European Championship 
	tournament.
 Q.  Is there an entrance 
    fee?A.  No
 Q.  Can anyone join in?A.  No. Only those known to us.
 Q.  Do I need to 
    register in order to join in?A.  Yes. If you are ready to register, click
    here. Once you have registered, you
 don't need to again (for the different competitions or 
    new seasons).
 Q.  How does the points 
    system work?A.  For each game, you predict a score with the home team first, e.g. if 
    Spurs
 are at home to Aston Villa and you put 2-1, you are 
    predicting that Spurs win
 2-1. If Spurs win, you get 1 point. If they win 2-1 you 
    get a further 2 points,
 giving you 3 points in total (if you correctly predict 
    a game with four or more
 goals you get the same amount of points as there were 
    goals).
 If the game was a draw, 
    or Aston Villa won, you wouldn't get any points.
 There may be additional points available for jokers 
    played and in guest games,
 as well as in the cup competitions (see the
    details page for more on how the
 points are calculated).)
 Q.  How do I send my 
    scores in?A.  Click on the 'Scores 1' page each week and the fixtures for the 
    coming
 weekend will be listed. You will 
    only need to fill in your name, your pin
 number (which we will send you after you 
    register), and your scores.
 Then all you need to do is click on 
    the grey 'Submit' button and your
 scores will be sent to us.
 Q.  What happens if I 
    make a mistake?A.  If you make an error while typing your scores, just press the grey 
    'Reset'
 button and start everything again. Alternatively you 
    can just type over your
 incorrect score.
 Q.  What happens if I 
    want to alter a prediction already sent in?A.  That's tough I'm afraid. Be careful when typing your details and 
    scores, and
 check them before clicking on 'Submit'.
 Q.  I might be away on 
    holiday, or be unable to get to a computer to send my scores in. What do I do?
 A.  As well as the upcoming weeks fixtures, we also list fixtures 
    for the following
 week. You are not required to submit those, but if 
    you know you will be away
 you can fill them in as well so you don't miss out by being 
    away. To view, or
 send those in, click on the 'Scores 2' link.
 Q.  I sometimes forget if 
    I've already sent my scores in (if I did them early). What can I do to remember?
 A.  There is a list of "early predictors" at the top of the Scores 
	1 
    page. If you
 sent your scores for those fixtures in early, your name 
    will be added.
 Q.  What happens if I 
    forget to send my scores in. Do I get any points thatweekend?
 A.  Yes, you get 1 point less than the lowest score that week, up to a 
    maximum
 of 5 points. This only applies to those who 
    occasionally forget their scores. If
 you forget regularly then you will get 
    zero.
 Q.  Can we 'chat' with 
    other players?A.  Yes, we have a forum. Find out about it 
    here.
