This competition is open to all that want to participate. But the $200 price for the winner with more points is only for Current Lumos Students. You can invite your family and friends to play.
Predicting the matches
Predict the end score of all the matches in the tournament/competition. You have until 15 minutes before the start of a match to add or change your prediction.
The server time is used. No discussion about that, so be on time if you want to fill in your scores.
You can enter the prediction for one game at the time, but only until 15 minutes before the game start. Or, if you’re feeling lucky, you can predict all the games now.
As you may have noticed the matches in the next stages are not yet filled at the beginning of the tournament. Once the teams are through to the next round, the will be added later.
The bonus questions
You can earn extra points during the tournament with the bonus questions. These questions must be answered before a given date and time. Each questions shows the points you can earn.
The scoring
In the group phase the scores at the end of the game are used for the calculation of the scores. For final rounds the score at the end of the game including extra time is used. Goals in a penalty shoot-out are not taken into consideration.
You get points for predicting the correct winner of the match or prediction of a draw. We call this the toto score.
In case you also predict the exact amount of goals scored, you get extra points. We call this the full score.
If you got the goals correct you get the extra goal bonus, even if you didn’t get the match result correct (e.g. match ends in 1-1 and you predicted 0-1 you will still get 1 points).
The last scoring options is the goal difference bonus: if you predict the correct winner, not the exact score, but you predicted the correct difference in goals, you get the goal difference bonus (e.g. you predicted 3-1 or 4-2 and result is 2-0).

The multiplier
Each player has one or more multipliers
Little Soccer Ball in each Game. If you enable a multiplier on a match, the score for that match is multiplied by 2. You may enable the multiplier on every match and you can change your mind and move the multiplier as long this match is still changeable. The multiplier is activated after the prediction for the match is locked. Once activated the multiplier cannot be moved anymore.
Same ranking?
When multiple players have the exact same amount of points, then the following sorting rules are applied on the ranking (most important one at the top):
- amount of full scores;
- amount of toto scores;
- amount of correct bonus questions.
