The Hashfootery Cup 2013/2014

As is traditional, we are running a knockout tournament based on your hashfootery predictions - our very own FA Cup, if you like. The knockout tournament uses your scoring from our main competition, so you don't need to do anything extra to take part. Just playing hashfootery (at least twice) in August, September, October makes you eligible to be included in the Hashfootery Cup draw.

The winner of each head-to-head pairing will be decided on points scored over a calendar month and will progress to the next round.

The winner will receive an impressively unique trophy, like the one pictured right, only a bit different to make it unique.

The Draw

1. Hashfooterers who have entered 2 or more predictions during August-October 2013 will qualify to be entered into the draw.
2. Unlike televised football draws, there will be no ball bags. The Hashfootery draw uses a pseudo-random number generator to decide the order of pairings.
3. The number of qualifying hashfooterers is likely to be less than 128, so some will draw a "bye" into Round 2.
4. One single open draw determines the order of pairings for all rounds in the knockout.

In the event of a tie...

1. the player with the greater number of "3 pointers" in the current month is deemed the winner;
2. if still tied, the player with more points from the previous month is deemed the winner;
3. if still tied, the player with the greater number of "3 pointers" in the previous month is deemed the winner;
4. if still tied, repeat these same tie-breakers for each month before until a winner can be declared
5. in the event that a winner cannot be determined, a decision will be made by @downwithdesign, @kirstieh and @gerrymulvenna
