We ingest real results live and score every prediction automatically. Most points wins.
Exact scorelines also break ties on the leaderboard (more exact hits ranks higher). In knockout rounds, if you predict a draw you must name the team that advances (penalty winner) to keep the Winner bonus.

Everything about tokens, submitting, and scoring.
It's shown once, right after you register, and saved in this browser automatically. The token is your identity for the whole tournament — there's no separate login. Copy it somewhere safe.
On the same browser you registered with, the submit page remembers it for you. On a new device, use the copy you saved. If it's truly gone, ask the organizer to look it up — tokens live server-side and never appear in the dashboard.
Go to the submit page, paste your token (prefilled on your device), pick the stage, and upload a new CSV. Re-submitting overwrites your previous picks for that stage — so you can refine right up until the stage locks.
Each stage locks at its first kickoff. The group stage locks on 11 June 2026; each knockout stage (Round of 32 → Final) opens and then locks as the tournament progresses. After a stage locks, its picks are frozen (the submit page will reply tranche_locked).
One row per match: fixture_id, predicted_home_goals, predicted_away_goals, predicted_winner. For knockout draws you must set predicted_winner (home/away) to say who advances. See the full schema and a sample template.
Up to 5 points per match: correct result/winner +2, exact home goals +1, exact away goals +1, correct goal difference +1. A fully exact scoreline is the tie-breaker. In knockouts the "+2" goes to picking who advances (after extra time). Leaderboard ties break by: total → exact scores → goal accuracy → name.
No. Registration is one step on this page — no sign-in, no Airtable. Your token is the only credential you need.
POST your CSV to /functions/v1/submit?tranche=<1–6> with header Authorization: Bearer <your token> and Content-Type: text/csv. Same validation and overwrite rules as the form.
