Can You Outpredict Paul the Octopus in the 2014 PF World Cup League?

[cristo]

Important notice!
We have had a lot of predictions made after the deadline. I have ignored the situation until now, but it's a bit unfair towards the people who make their predictions tomorrow. Since I am posting so short before the deadline (5 hours), I will let tomorrow's matches pass too. But after that, I expect the predictions on time (i.e. before midnight GMT). Any posts after the deadline, even 1 minute, will not be accepted

Is the deadline not the time the first game kicks off? I must have missed that. (I generally don't think about the games until the morning of)

Cameroon - Brazil: 0 - 3
Croatia - Mexico: 1 - 2

24th June:
Italy - Uruguay: 1 - 2
Costa Rica - England: 0 - 2

EDIT: It can very well happen, I have to add

I'm the one who's surprised! Now if Germany wins the world cup, I will get 8 points more than you will (4 if they reach the final), and if Germany doesn't, someone else will get a considerable advantage, and maybe win.
Edit: Perhaps, by changing to Germany, you have spelt your own doom

Edit2: I mean 6 not 8, sorry.

Glad you enjoy it! I'm not sure about your switch to Germany, but we'll see how it turns out.
