Hello people!

I figured it would be fun to try to guess the final standings of the EPL for this season. Also, because I shamelessly love competitions. To encourage participation, I'll buy the winner two beers of their choice at the first opportunity in-stadium next season! ...If I win it, I buy myself two beers I guess? If you do not want beers, you may PM me after your victory and I can get you something else!

Rules and guidelines:

Score will be based on the following things:

1) Champion
2) Champions League Qualification
3) Europa League Qualification
4) Relegation
5) Top Scorer
6) Highest/Lowest Scoring Team
7) Highest/Lowest Conceding Team


Please list the teams starting from #1 to #20 in a format like so:
1) Team FC
2) Team2 FC
etc.
I'd prefer if you use official names (i.e. "Everton" rather than "the Toffees")

For top scorer please give one player's name.
For highest/lowest scoring/conceding teams, please give two teams, one for highest and one for lowest - do not give multiple for highest or multiple for lowest.

Point calculation:
  • For each team: +1 point per deviation from official final position
  • Correct Champion: -3 points
  • Correct Champions League Qualification (not including champion or EL winner): -.5 points per team
  • Correct Europa League Qualification (not including cup competitions): -.5 points per team
  • Correct Relegation candidates: -1 point per team
  • Correct Top Scorer: -2 points (Note: If multiple top scorers win, you will still get -2)
  • Correct highest/lowest scoring teams: -1 point per team
  • Correct highest/lowest conceding teams: -1 point per team
Lowest score wins!

Tiebreakers:

  • Most amount of teams guessed in the correct position
  • Most amount of correctly guessed Champion+UCL+EL+Relegation teams

Submission deadline is kickoff of MD 3 of the 2020-2021 season, Sept 26th at 7:30am EST. This should be plenty of time to put together your thoughts for the season.

-Note- I'd like at least 5 participants in order to kick off the competition. If we don't reach 5 participants, I'll void the competition's reward, and it'll just be for fun

I think I won.. got a lot of standings correct.
Unless Vernon somehow did better, yes. I'm finishing up the aggregation right now! And I created it in a spreadsheet that will make it easier for me to migrate for future seasons we do this as well! hah
 
Congrats NYCFC_Dan NYCFC_Dan For winning! You came VERY close to D Dnigly13, only a 4 point difference between you two!

Good job to you both, Vernon and I were MILES behind lol.

Final scores can be found here, along with all point totals:
