Yeah, I am always for more interactive stuff. I think that it would also help with getting people to come back and visit the site more often. How do you want to handel it? These are my thoughts:
1. I am thinking that each week there is a new thread with a list of games for the upcomming week. Just like there is in the tatics forum.
For the most part the games are on Sat. and Sun., So I think people would need to have their picks in by friday for the weekend games. It is up to you if you want to include the weekday games. We would have to figure this part out. I have some thoughts, but we'll deal with it later.
2. A new thread would be started each week w/ a list of all the upcomming weekends games. Involved people would list their pics and scharatz could add them up when the games are done. In the Seria A Predictions Forum there should be one locked forum that only the moderator of the forum can change to update a running point total. I can help you with this if you want because I have more free time on the weekends, when the games end there is is usually latter in the evening, but for me the sunday night game ends at around 11:00am sunday here so I have all day to update the scores and overall point totals. In the locked forum we can keep a running list of how everyone is doing overall and add it up week by week. This makes it more improtant for people to visit the site and to place their picks weekly, if not they will miss out on the points for that week.
Does this make sence to you? Let me know, I think it is a pretty good system, but everything should be worked out in detail so there is no confusion. I am more than happy to help run this game w/ scharatz, as I have done run them in the past including a smaller version I did with my friends from the world cup.
