Eyes not spreadsheets
It's back again, same rules as before:
For getting a correct prediction you get an automatic 5 points, with up to 10 more points available for margin, on a sliding scale (so if you're spot on you get 10 points, but if you're 3 points out you get 7 points etc.)
For example for England vs Fiji if I predict England to win by 25 points and they win by 27 points, I get 5 for the prediction and 8 for the margin.
If you predict a margin of less than 10 points, then you can actually score points even if you get the prediction wrong. For example if you predict say Tonga to beat Georgia by 6 points and Georgia win by 3 points, you get 1.
Deadline for each pick is when the game kicks off, but will be putting the fixtures up in blocks of 8 games - results may not come immediately (since I'm away a lot around the start of the Tournament) but will be done as and when I can.
So the first games are (all times are UK times):
