- Pick one of the teams not picked by your opponent (if they haven't picked any team, you have free choice)

Service announcement: Since I then have to type in your choices in a spreadsheet, anybody who is responsible for having Fimleikafélag Hafnarfjarðar in one of the matches will be automatically assessed a 10 point penalty.

I'm sorry Daniele, but since Jesper chose Íþróttabandalag Vestmannaeyja I've got to
pick FH.

Ciao,

You only needed to look at the OP again.

The weekend's results:
Degerfors - AIK 2-1
Goteborg - Hammarby 1-1
HK - Vikingur 1-2
IBV - FH to be played today.

The astute reader will have noticed that Degerfors was the home team in Degerfors-AIK, contrary to what the sloppy gamemaster had posted. This detail may have affected players' choices. In Tier 2, the sloppy gamemaster picked HK when he could have gone for Degerfors, so he pays the consequences of his own sloppiness -- MH wins that match.

But what about Tier 1? Should Mark-Jesus's match be declared null and void? Or will we just call it an accident, shit happens, and we move on?

I don't think I would have picked Degerfors either way, so let's move on.

Tchau!

Did I only look at the league table when making my prediction? I didn't even notice that Degerfors were the home team.

Match Day 1 results and standings:

Tier 1
----
Mark 2 - 1 Jesus Petry (Vikingur Reykjavik - HK Kopavogur)
Jesper Lauridsen 2 - 3 Werner Pichler (IBV - FH)


Pts M GF GA GD Picks Team
3 1 3 2 1 1 Werner Pichler
3 1 2 1 1 1 Mark
0 1 2 3 -1 1 Jesper Lauridsen
0 1 1 2 -1 1 Jesus Petry

Season 53's top two off to a flying start.

Tier 2
----
MH 2 - 1 Futbolmetrix (Vikingur Reykjavik - HK Kopavogur)
milivella 3 - 2 The Doctor (Fimleikafélag Hafnarfjarðar - IBV)


Pts M GF GA GD Picks Team
3 1 2 1 1 1 MH
0 1 2 3 -1 0 The Doctor
0 1 1 2 -1 1 Futbolmetrix
-7 1 3 2 1 0 milivella

milivella's random.org pick ended up being Fimleikafélag Hafnarfjarðar, so I have no choice but to assess him a 10 point penalty.

I haven't checked who picked whom, so I am impartial. My vote goes to
"call it an accident and move on".

I appeal, with the certainty that the matter will be treated as clearly
as the Juventus financial thing.
