Do you have some kind of wizzy tool to work out the updates? Can imagine it would be a bit of a nightmare to work out manually.

Pencil and paper.

One of the reasons why I asked everyone to write it out their predictions in the same way is because it makes it easier and quicker to scan, then all I do is write out the points for half time, full time, minutes then cards in that order, write it down like so 2,2,0,4,0 = 8 (x2 = 16, if joker played). The list is in the order people posted, then copy previous update and add in new update, swapping around positions if need be.

As I am watching all bar the 11pm kick offs I already know all the details before I sit down to add it up.

Oh god, I've slipped from the top spot. I can already see myself slow sliding down until the final game when I miss out completely

Update for Italy v Costa Rica, safe to say nobody saw that one coming.

The table also includes corrections from Japan v Greece where I mistakenly thought there were 5 yellow 1 red, instead of 4 yellow and 1 red - as a consequence Taybha, Gregory2 Smith 1 and PWA gain 4 points and MattBackhome loses his 5 that I'd mistakenly given him.
