Due to being on a free host, the site is unavailable between the hours of 14:00 to 15:00 every day (sometimes a little longer).

Is that sentence different according to my system clock? If not, you might wanna add the timezone.

Thanks for checking it out. It does say at the top of that box ‘All times are in BST'. But I might add it again to that sentence just to make it clearer.

Damn, now I look even more stupid than usual.

Stupot · « **Reply #23 on:** 17 May 2018, 07:35 »

No no, it's not immediately obvious. My web design skills are about as basic as all my other skills, so any suggestions or feedback is welcome.

Stu do we have to submit all our predictions for each stage (currently the group stage) in one go, or can you do some now, and return later to do the others?

(I'm guessing from the design it's all in one go but thought it was worth checking.)

Stupot · « **Reply #25 on:** 17 May 2018, 08:52 »

All in one go would be preferable. It used to be that you could do them in drips and drabs but most people did them in one block anyway. It's easier for me because I have to transfer them manually to the spreadsheet in my free time.

It'll be a mission but it's just 5-10 minutes and you've got 4 weeks to think about it and make notes before submitting. After the group stage it will be dramatically easier.

CaptainD · « **Reply #26 on:** 17 May 2018, 09:11 »

Thanks for the clarification.

It is of course obligatory to read all your predictions out loud in the manner of an BBC sports reporter.

it told me to keep a backup, so what better place to store this than here

Good plan Selmiak. Thanks for your submission. It was fun to receive the first email from someone other than ‘John Smith' or ‘Guybrush' or ‘Testy McTestface'

3 nice easy wins for Germany I see!

You'd be better off copying these results. This is the first round and no real challenge for that team

I hope

Gah I'm getting a 404 error...

Will try later but in case it doesn't work these are my predictions:

@CaptainD - Yeah sorry about that, Dave. Try again in a couple of hours or when you have a chance. If you don't pay for the premium package, the host puts your site to sleep for one hour every day for “maintenance”. They're a great free host for learning though.

ManicMatt · « **Reply #35 on:** 19 May 2018, 16:22 »

My predictions will probably be a laugh for you - I'm pretty clueless and don't really care, but for the community's sake, I put my numbers in.

Stupot · « **Reply #36 on:** 20 May 2018, 00:43 »

I've just submitted my own guesses.
I'll post them here too, it would be good to have a time-stamped record so that no one will think I fiddled the spreadsheet if (when

) I win the league.

Sinitrena · « **Reply #37 on:** 20 May 2018, 21:36 »

I've sent mine in too.

CaptainD · « **Reply #38 on:** 21 May 2018, 10:04 »

I hit Enter by accident and submitted 26 no-score draws that I didn't intend to. I think I'll leave it at that now and hope for the most boring World Cup ever!

LOL CaptainD
