Yeah... The whole bonus points thing doesn't sit right with me.

i think it keeps it interesting personally, if you don't want to enter its perfectly fine, just a bonus chance Big Grin

It's just starting to feel too much like a competition, when I signed up last season, I done it for a bit of fun that took little to no effort.

I just preferred the days of 10 games, 1 point for each and an extra for Boro's goalscorer (or if we aren't playing, 1 selected game). Used to take like 5 seconds of randomly guessing, now I am having to go on teams wiki's to find out who plays for them and if I want to be on the same playing field as others, participate in "bonus rounds". Just getting all a little bit too much.

I know it doesn't sound like much of an issue but as I said, I done it for a bit of fun and now it's starting to feel like work Tongue

Totally agree liked last season you could put your guestimates on over a culpa at lunch at work now I have to put time aside to go thru teams, or just copy paste someone else Wink

Glad I'm not alone on this one Tongue

. Picking goalscorers for each team seems a bit random as well.

Not meant as a complaint, as I appreciate the work being put down on this.

Oh yeah, don't get me wrong, the work GGG puts into it is appreciated.

I just don't want to put the same amount in Tongue

Also agree this is why I have not entered into it this season but applaud Glado effort

**thepassenger** · 04-09-2012, 07:23 AM

Thought it was just me, having to work predicting into my work schedule because it takes a lot longer
