2011/2012 UEFA Champions' League Prediction Competition

Alrighty, here we go again. Another season, another chance to do some CL tipping!

Our previous winners:
2002/2003 - BreizhManu
2003/2004 - BreizhManu
2004/2005 - moriarity
2005/2006 - atatange1
2006/2007 - condors
2007/2008 - TazFTW
2008/2009 - SirFozzie
2009/2010 - Cards4ever
2010/2011 - Ronnie Dobbs2

As always, we're picking in three phases, just like the UEFA is drawing in three phases:
* group phase rounds
* round of 16 knockout round
* quarterfinals through the final knockout rounds

In our picking competition you can score points in every phase with 40 points in the group phase, 16 in the round of 16 and another 40 in the final playoff tree from eight teams down to one team.

For the group phase you predict the final standings in all eight groups. For every team correctly predicted to qualify for the round of 16, you get 1 point. You receive 1 bonus point if the ranking of that top2 team is correct as well. You can also score 1 point for correctly predicting the third ranked team in the group. That adds up to 5 points per group, for a total of 40 points.

The eight groups in the first round are (names as listed at UEFA.com):

Group A
FC Bayern München
Villarreal CF
Manchester City FC
SSC Napoli

Group B
FC Internazionale Milano
PFC CSKA Moskva
LOSC Lille Métropole
Trabzonspor AS

Group C
Manchester United FC
SL Benfica
FC Basel 1893
FC Otelul Galati

Group D
Real Madrid CF
Olympique Lyonnais
AFC Ajax
GNK Dinamo Zagreb

Group E
Chelsea FC
Valencia CF
Bayer 04 Leverkusen
KRC Genk

Group F
Arsenal FC
Olympique de Marseille
Olympiacos FC
Borussia Dortmund

Group G
FC Porto
FC Shakhtar Donetsk
FC Zenit St Petersburg
APOEL FC

Group H
FC Barcelona
AC Milan
FC BATE Borisov
FC Viktoria Plzen

To make your picks, simply reply in this thread, list the eight groups and order who you think will be the top three teams, for example:
Group I: 1. 2. 3.
No need to list the fourth team or spell out the full names, as long as it's obvious who you think will finish 1st, 2nd and 3rd in each respective group.
Please don't edit your posts, chances are I miss your changes and things might get confusing. In those rare cases where you really need to change your picks, either edit them right away (in hopes I didn't add your previous picks to the spreadsheet) or make a new post.

Deadline for the group phase picks are kickoff of the first game(s) played, which will be September 13th at 2:45 pm Eastern.

Could you specify which team you actually wanted in third place here: Bayer 04 Leverkusen or KRC Genk? Either I'll have to keep the E3 blank for you, or give you a 1/6th point penalty on this specific pick, if you make the right pick.

Sorry, Leverkusen - do what you will.

Noted. It's going in as your 3rd place prediction.
I'll go with door number 3: a tie-breaker penalty in case your total # of points is equal to somebody else.

Mulling over it a bit, this doesn't seem to work well. What I'll do is only apply a small penalty of 1/2 a point if Bayer 04 Leverkusen indeed finishes 3rd. That should do the trick for missing the deadline.

MIJB#19 · 09-17-2011, 03:58 AM

Looking over the various predictions, there are some teams that have been picked in the same spot by everybody:
Internazionale as Group B winners
Trabzonspor as Group B fourth placed team
Manchester United as Group C winners
Benfica as Group C runners-up
Racing Genk as Group E fourth placed team
APOEL as Group G fourth placed team
FC Barcelona as Group H winners
AC Milan as Group H runners-up

Some 11 out of 12 picks:
FC Basel as Group C third placed team (deviation: whomario)
Otelul Galati as Group C fourth placed team (deviation: whomario)
Real Madrid as Group D winners (~~hater~~ deviation: MIJB#19)
Olympique Lyon as Group D runners-up (deviation: Ronnie Dobbs2)

And lastly the consensus:

group A	group B	group C	group D	group E	group F	group G	group H
1. Man City	1. Internazionale	1. Man Utd	1. Real Madrid	1. Chelsea	1. Arsenal	1. Porto	1. Barcelona
2. Bayern	2. CSKA Moskva	2. Benfica	2. Lyon	2. Valencia	2. Marseille	2. Shakhtar	2. Milan
3. Villarreal	3. Lille	3. Basel	3. Ajax	3. Leverkusen	3. Dortmund	3. Zenit	3. Plzen
4. Napoli	4. Trabzonspor	4. Otelul	4. Dinamo Zagreb	4. Genk	4. Olympiakos	4. APOEL	4. BATE

I award you (all) no points, and may god have mercy on your soul(s).

MIJB#19 · 12-13-2011, 05:32 PM

Thanks for the bump, dacman. It's been an unusual week, that kept me from posting the results. I'm still shocked that people take soccer games so seriously that they needed to bribe Dinamo Zagreb players to keep me from first place...

Anyway, the group play standings!
1st place I.J. Reilly and Katon with 23 points each
3rd place bhlloy, Butter of 69, dacman and SirFozzie with 22 points each
7th place Cards4ever and whomario with 21 points each
9th place MIJB#19 and Ronnie Dobbs2 with 19 points each
11th place Scholes with 18 points
12th place Northwood_DK with 17 points
13th place the rest of FOFC with 0 points each

With a gap of only 6 points, it's all wide open, still!

dacman · 12-16-2011, 07:48 AM

Round of 16:

Lyon v APOEL
Napoli v Chelsea
AC Milan v Arsenal
Basel v Bayern Munich
Bayer Leverkusen v Barcelona
CSKA Moscow v Real Madrid
Zenit St Petersburg v Benfica
Marseille v Inter Milan

First matches 14 Feb.

MIJB#19 · 02-06-2012, 02:03 PM

Less than 8 days until kickoff for the round of 16!

We've got 8 matchups, each worth 2 points if you predict the correct winner.
Olympique Lyonnais - APOEL FC
Bayer 04 Leverkusen - FC Barcelona
FC Zenit St Petersburg - SL Benfica
AC Milan - Arsenal FC
PFC CSKA Moskva - Real Madrid CF
SS Napoli - Chelsea FC
Olympique de Marseille - FC Internazionale Milano
FC Basel 1893 - FC Bayern München

I've got a feeling there won't be much variance in the picks this round.

MIJB#19 Grizzled Veteran Join Date: Oct 2000 Location: Maassluis, Netherlands	Thanks for the bump, dacman. It's been an unusual week, that kept me from posting the results. I'm still shocked that people take soccer games so seriously that they needed to bribe Dinamo Zagreb players to keep me from first place... Anyway, the group play standings! 1st place I.J. Reilly and Katon with 23 points each 3rd place bhlloy, Butter of 69, dacman and SirFozzie with 22 points each 7th place Cards4ever and whomario with 21 points each 9th place MIJB#19 and Ronnie Dobbs2 with 19 points each 11th place Scholes with 18 points 12th place Northwood_DK with 17 points 13th place the rest of FOFC with 0 points each With a gap of only 6 points, it's all wide open, still! __________________ * 2005 Golden Scribe winner for best FOF Dynasty about IHOF's Maassluis Merchantmen * Former GM of GEFL's Houston Oilers and WOOF's Curacao Cocktail [RIP]

MIJB#19 Grizzled Veteran Join Date: Oct 2000 Location: Maassluis, Netherlands	Less than 8 days until kickoff for the round of 16! We've got 8 matchups, each worth 2 points if you predict the correct winner. Olympique Lyonnais - APOEL FC Bayer 04 Leverkusen - FC Barcelona FC Zenit St Petersburg - SL Benfica AC Milan - Arsenal FC PFC CSKA Moskva - Real Madrid CF SS Napoli - Chelsea FC Olympique de Marseille - FC Internazionale Milano FC Basel 1893 - FC Bayern München I've got a feeling there won't be much variance in the picks this round. __________________ * 2005 Golden Scribe winner for best FOF Dynasty about IHOF's Maassluis Merchantmen * Former GM of GEFL's Houston Oilers and WOOF's Curacao Cocktail [RIP] Last edited by MIJB#19 : 02-06-2012 at 02:04 PM.
