I am so tempted to play...and iss saal badge bhi milega my only problem is that it's very difficult to come online and send predictions during toss time everyday, as some days im not home, and its even harder during double headers

Well users can submit their predictions 3-7 days in advance for scheduled matches. And will be able to update it till 30 mins before the game start. So you don't have to wait till the start of the match.

Since it's an application you dont have to send any PM. Its like doing a short online survey.

Do we have to download this application or this application can be accessed in IF only. Also, will their be yellow ribbons like we had for easter game?

Well for the margin of victory has to be predicted in Runs and Wickets.

Here's an example of how the margin of victory points system could work for both runs and wickets:

Assume that Team A plays Team B in an IPL match and Team A wins by 20 runs OR 2 wickets. Here's how you could assign points for predicting the margin of victory:

For runs:

• If a member predicted that Team A would win by 20 runs, they would earn 10 points.
• If a member predicted that Team A would win by 21-25 runs, they would earn 3 points (since their prediction was within the 11-20 runs range).
• If a member predicted that Team A would win by 15 runs or 30 runs, they would earn 2 points (since their prediction was within the 6-10 or 21-30 runs range).
• If a member predicted that Team B would win, they would earn 0 points.
  
  

For wickets:

• If a member predicted that Team A would win by 2 wickets, they would earn 10 points.
• If a member predicted that Team A would win by 1 or 3 wickets, they would earn 7 points (since their prediction was within the 1-5 wickets range).
• If a member predicted that Team A would win by 4 or 5 wickets, they would earn 5 points (since their prediction was within the 6-10 wickets range).
• If a member predicted that Team B would win, they would earn 0 points.

This way, members can earn points based on how close their prediction is to the actual margin of victory, and it is possible to assign points for both runs and wickets.

Please note the points and range we are still finalising. However idea is wherever the probability of winning is less the Points will be higher.

So members will make more points if they guess victory margin compared to guessing which Team will win the match. And that also how close you were to the actual result.

Much of the computing will be done by the Application so we all can simply enjoy the contest.

This system is even more complicated to understand now...I am lost😆

But my main issue was that to predict MOM, runs, wickets, etc, we need to know who is playing...and for that we have to be here at toss time...kyunki uss se pehle nahi pata chal sakta. What is your solution to that?

Can you elaborate more on the survey. Is it like google forms? Will we receive the form in PM?

When are you planning to start Easter game? Beginning of April?
