2018 FIFA World Cup Prediction Contest

For example, Nzol suggested the following: a system where points are awarded for the main time, just like in the group stage, and an additional point is added for each team that advances. This wouldn't require overly complicated calculations. In example 1, if someone bet on a team to win, but the main time ends in a draw, we give them the opportunity to "root" for the team until the end, with the chance to earn 1 point. In example 2, if someone bet on a draw in the main time, that prediction seems somewhat incomplete, and again, there's little point in the predictor "rooting" for the team any further. And of course, this additional point would add more dynamism to the standings and create additional opportunities for trailing teams to reduce the gap. Since predictions should be more complex in the later stages of the tournament, this seems logical. I would personally suggest a system where, when predicting a draw, the outcome in extra time is also specified, with an additional point. For example, a prediction: Team 1 - Team 2 (1-1, Team 1 wins in extra time or Team 1 wins on penalties). The player receives 2 or 3 points for the outcome of the main time, plus a point for correctly predicting the outcome of extra time. Which option should we take, or are there other options?
