EL JOC
It is a private game to forecast football competition results.
It has 4 stages: Group, Knock-Out, Roll of Honours and Bonus.
ROLL OF HONOURS:
- Forecasts must be sent before competition starts in mid-September and can't be changed.
- EL JOC uses a coefficient ("COEF") based in UEFA Club coefficient (https://www.uefa.com/memberassociations/uefarankings/club/) that will be shown with forecast forms.
. RelCoef = Max(UEFACoef) / UEFACoef
. COEF = (1-3)/(Min(RelCoef)-Max(RelCoef))*(RelCoef-Max(RealCoef))+3
- EL JOC determines which teams are seeded before competition starts and this will be shown with forecast forms. Seeded teams can't be chosen as "Surprise". Seeded teams "FAV" value is "-1" while not seeded teams "FAV" value is "1".
- Each team collects points for competition match as follows: win --> 3 points, draw --> 1 point and loss --> 0 points. Points amount is value "PTS".
- Surpise ranking formula: PTS x COEF x FAV. Updated information is shown at Standings.
