Euro 2012 Competition - Entry Rules

These are the rules for the Euro 2012 Competition

The relatively simple task is to predict the finishing placings of each of the groups and then the knockout stages. This must all be done before the first match kicks off.

Points will be awarded as follows:

Group Stages

1 point for each correct group placing.

Quarter Finals

By filling in the Groups, you will effectively create your second round draw.

For each correct team playing in the right QF match, 2 points will be awarded.

If a team you have chosen reaches the QF's, but not in the game you have designated, 1 point will be awarded.

Semi Finals

For each correct team playing in the right SF match, 4 points will be awarded.

If a team you have chosen reaches the SF's, but not in the game you have designated, 2 points will be awarded.

The Final

For each correct team playing in the right Final position, 8 points will be awarded.

If a team you have chosen reaches the Final, but not in the position you have designated, 4 points will be awarded.

The Winner

16 points will be awarded for correctly predicting the eventual winner.

1st place (most points) - Tier 2 subscription for a year - staff are excluded

2nd place - Tier 1 subscription for a year- staff are excluded

3rd place - A pat on the back - staff are not excluded ;)

If there is a tie in points then both members will receive the prize.

I'd love to see England do well, but they will get knocked out at the 1st knockout phase. Ireland to be a sleeper hit, lol!

I'm just being realistic. We all know how well England is doing at major tournaments.

But finishing bottom of the group isn't going to happen. (I certain hope not anyway!) You really think Ukraine is a better side than England?!

Thanks for the spotting the error and the mail Neobond. My old post can either be deleted or have most of the characters removed by a mod if possible. Which ever is easier.

Sadly, he's right. We don't have what it takes to beat Germany, or win the tournament.

I don't think that's quite true. The quality is there, but there's also a sense of entitlement that some to most of the players feel they have to just come into a major international competition and should do well because they do well at club level. In reality, most England players don't give a rats ass about representing thir country, haven't for a while. Which is a damn shame as there are some players that deserve(d) to be elevated to the status of "greatest" by winning the Euros or the World Cup.

Aint got a clue, so I'm going with the boss.

    • with LSTC and ESU, moving to w11 or linux because w10 suddenly will not work when in reality it works and its a better choice, of course there are also developers that only test in 11 or force you to have TPM and Secure boot for the sake of "better security" in games. or most likely people is buying new PC that only ship with 11
    • with LTSC and ESU there are still viable as a stable platform not that they care and let people deal with w11 crashing and burning every month support mean shet if the platform is trash
    • Most boring game ever. Repetitive, empty, predictable, and full of cliches. Total waste of time and money, IMO.
    • Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe During Summer Game Fest, 2K and Hanger 13 brought out a new Mafia: The Old Country trailer, revealing the game's first expansion. Named Man of Honor, this is slated to add two new chapters to the Enzo storyline that the game follows. There is an iconic character returning to the series with this expansion, with players set to run into Ennio Salieri, the future Don of the Salieri crime family. Fans of the original Mafia, or its Definitive Edition remake, may remember that name as one of the biggest characters in the storyline. This expansion is set prior to his rise to being the kingpin in the City of Lost Heaven. "Set in Sicily during the winter of 1905, Enzo Favara has proven himself a reliable soldier of the Torrisi crime family in the months since his initiation," says the studio about the new chapters. "Now, the Don entrusts him and Cesare with a delicate assignment of assisting Ennio Salieri, a man of honor recently released from prison and intent on reclaiming what is his." Working at Salieri's side, players will be heading into fresh environments as they return to the role of Enzo as a high-ranking soldato. The studio also promises brand-new weapons, fresh vehicles, and charms to collect in this expansion. Moreover, the expansion will add new content to the updated Free Ride mode. Alongside new collectibles and locations, this will add more challenges to beat alongside Salieri, which are described as runs that will "test the skills of even the most elite mafiosi." The Mafia: The Old Country Man of Honor story expansion will release on August 14, 2026, across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. It will cost $10 for owners of the base game to jump into.
