So a bit more house-keeping on this special side competition.
As per the concept floated, the AsiaSeries is a tip winners and margins side competition. Original concept detail is at the foot of this post (and no longer on its own page)
To set the four pools of players I have used the ladder standings from after week 19 as a guide to seeding.
Then the position numbers are used to calculate an 'as best as possible' balance to each pool.
(Looking at the pools below, all players position totals will be around 54)
You will play 4 games in each pool against each opponent.
Top player from each pool progresses through to the Semi Finals.
Just another reminder, you are to tip Winner (or draw) AND margin.
Example:
Port Vale v Leyton Orient
a Home win by 2 goals is to be tipped as '2'.
a one goal win by the O's is to be tipped as '-1'.
a draw is simply '0'.
Easy? Sure!
Pools have been drawn as per here:

FMICL ASIA SERIES
Who is in for a side comp and a whole other set of tips?Proposal is to tip AFC Asian Cup matches in Australia next month.
Will split off 20 players into 4 pools of 5 each. You play head to head in pool once (1 bye). Top from each pool into semis and then into final.
Of course, if we dont get all 20 FMICL'ers playing, I will modify the pools accordingly.
Tipping will be on 4 games over 2( or in one case) 3 days, as per below.
| R | M | HOME | AWAY | |
1
| 1 | Australia | vs | Kuwait |
| 2 | Korea Republic | vs | Oman | |
| 3 | Uzbekistan | vs | Korea DPR | |
| 4 | Saudi Arabia | vs | China PR |
Given there are only a limited pool of games, the idea is that you not only tip a winner (or draw), but also the margin. For example: Uzbekistan +2 is a 2 goal win as either 2-0, 3-1, etc.
Tipping stretches over the time period, split into rounds as below.
Semi Finals will be played on the days 19th and 20th Jan.
Final to be played on Asian Cup quarter finals 22 ans 23 Jan.
Hit me up on Twitter if you are in or not ASAP... will need as much time as possible to set u the background spreadsheets etc.
Worth noting - still working on some contingency rules to split players in event of two even teams in a pool to go through to finals etc.
Current thinking is standard points the for/against. Then on head to head record. Then perhaps by 'net nearest the pin' on margins. And if need be, coin toss!
