    No, because you could have chosen the first goalscorer in another quarter final.

    I guess you missed my quote about common sense then.

    Well I figured everyone had a chance to pick something, probably got a couple more people than I expected, and didn't make the rules clear enough to everyone with several people missing it.

    To be fair, there were a few possibilities, yeah it's obvious Ronaldo would score but whose to say it would be a one nil? Could have seen something different, and any of 5/6 players between both teams could have scored, particularly if it had gone to penalties, probably would have been someone different taking the first. Times that by four quarter finals to choose from.. but again I figure I didn't make it clear as most people picked players from the first quarter final.

    Gonna have to make this up to you all aren't I.
    There is no truth
    And I may not be interested in your opinion

    I chose to ignore it because I had first choice and did not choose Ronaldo.

    Right, riise94 got five points for guessing it correctly.

    the five players that 'lost' get another chance - they can name a player from the remaining games to score, now the rules have been made clear? (shout up if not!)

    if this does not satisfy, please see rule 5.

    Not at all bert, rules are rules I'm just a twat who didn't read em through. Was only giving a nudge for future games, you've been immense throughout (just like previous) and we are lucky to have this fun mate.

    1. Name the first scorer in any quarter final. You must not pick the same as anyone who has already posted, so there are four possible correct answers - if any games finish 0-0 and go to penalties, the first penalty scorer counts.

    Bert explain this quest. May I pick who is going to score for next 3 quarter f?
    Spoon boy: Do not try and bend the spoon. That's impossible. Instead... only try to realize the truth.
    Neo: What truth?
    Spoon boy: There is no spoon.
    Neo: There is no spoon?
    Spoon boy: Then you'll see, that it is not the spoon that bends, it is only yourself.

    And what now, because I did not post first that ronaldo is going to score first goal i dont get 5 pts. Man I dont sleep with my comp and dont now when are you going to put some quest. How i can say that is going to score for some who cant score. I sad Ronaldo and i want my 5 pts or I give up from all prediction, and by the way I am first on the table! That is all what i have to say.

    You can play again since I didn't make the rules clear. You can pick ONE player, which is for all three of the other quarter finals. So you pick a German, or French, or English, or whoever, but only one. If that player scores first in their quarter final, you get five points. You cannot pick one that someone else already picked. Hope that makes it clearer?

    mate, it's all a bit of fun, please don't take it so seriously. you can still get your five points, where as riise94 is well behind you anyway and can't get more from that question, and your other guesses still count too.

    Why I can't pick the same player who is already picked? Explain me that rule!?????? I am going to pick player for who I think that is going to score, and I dont care if he is already picked. So what if that player is picked???? What rule is this???? Cancel that rule, please. If everybody says RONALDO, so what, everybody get 5 pts and THAT IS ONLY FAIR. Please make poll and ask everybody did they agree with me.

    No, it is not language barrier. This rule just makes no sense. That is all

    Oh my god, it is a predictor game for a bit of fun, nothing valuable is involved in this. Calm down and move on. Please.

    Frankly I'm passed caring. If you can't follow a harmless rule in a game that's a bit of fun, then I'll just discount you from that part of the game. Giving you another chance to guess is more than i needed to do. If you don't calm down and stop telling me how to run this FUN TRIVIAL game then I'll just remove you from it altogether.

    Sorry muckman I didn't know who you meant - I thought it was number 7 for the Czech Republic and you just didn't know his name! Obvious now, but can't change the points on that one. But, you CAN'T PICK GOMEZ. RDuncan8 already picked him, you need to pick someone that no-one else has chosen, and ONE PLAYER FOR ALL THREE GAMES , not one player for every game.

    Please see my reply to muckman1 - ONE PLAYER FOR ALL THREE GAMES, not one player per game. Gomez and Torres are ALREADY PICKED BY OTHER PLAYERS.

    huh? I haven't edited your post? If you mean from your edit, that's beyond my power to put back. Is Schweinstiger the player you want? I'm happy to not post when you lose.

    Exactly. I thought it would be fun for those checking regularly to have something else, particular as there are no score predictions for the knockout rounds - I'm now thinking I wish I hadn't bothered. Frankly I'm not going to waste more of my time on this, anyone that now doesn't get the rules should maybe ask someone to translate the several posts above where the rules are explained quite clearly. Any further wrong answers or complaints will just be deleted and ignored. Got far bigger things to worry about than the daily time I'm putting into running this, for free, for your entertainment.

    Thanks to those who have been supportive!
