SuperBru Currie Cup is all about scoring points, and it's critical to understand how they are won. We suggest you take a look at the how to play guide for a general explanation, and then to confirm check the scoring rules in formal style below.


You must predict:

• The game outcome (team 1 win, draw or team 2 win)
• The margin of victory (i.e. score difference)

Points are awarded as follows:

Point	Value	Description
Win Point (WP)	1.0	Scored by all players correctly predicting the game outcome (home team win, draw or away team win)
Margin Point (MP)	0.5	A Margin Point will be awarded to every player whose margin prediction is within 5 points of the real margin, taking into account winning team. In the case of close games where the real margin is less than 5 points, players will qualify for a Margin Point if their prediction was for the incorrect team but within 5 points of the real margin. E.g. Player predicts Team A by 2 and Team B wins by 1 - player's prediction is within the 5 point range and a Margin Point is awarded. A Margin Point will not be awarded outside of this range. E.g. Player predicts Team A by 90, Team B wins by 84, no Margin Point is awarded.   Pick   MP value     Blue Bulls  by 9  0.0     Blue Bulls  by 8  0.0     Blue Bulls  by 7  0.5     Blue Bulls  by 6  0.5     Blue Bulls  by 5  0.5     Blue Bulls  by 4  0.5     Blue Bulls by 3 0.5   Actual score:  Blue Bulls  by 2  0.5     Blue Bulls by 1 0.5     Draw by 0 0.5     Cheetahs by 1 0.5     Cheetahs by 2 0.5     Cheetahs  by 3  0.5     Cheetahs by 4 0.0     Cheetahs by 5 0.0
Bonus Point (BP)	1.0	Scored by player(s) whose margin prediction(s) is/are the closest to the actual marign. Point is split in case of ties (e.g. if two players qualify, they get 0.5 BP each). Must get the game outcome right (i.e. earn a WP) in order to qualify. Is not added to global total for global leaderboard, is purely a pool point only.
Grand Slam Point (GSP)	1	Scored by all players correctly predicting every winner in a round. Applies only to rounds with at least 3 games (1 or 2 games in a round are too easy to predict to be worthy of a Grand Slam Point).
