Pick'em - Fantasy Sports Prediction game

Pick'em - Fantasy Sports Prediction game [Paid] 1.5.3

No permission to buy ($45.00)
Wish there was a version 2 addon, its exactly what we are looking for.
I am developing an XF2 version of it. Hope to have it ready for the upcoming NFL/NCAA football season. Can't (and won't) make any promises tho. @Dannymh has mentioned a few times that he was working on one as well (or at least considering developing one), so you might want to contact him privately to see if what he is working on will work for you.
 
THanks @Bob for the response. I am interested in the European soccer leagues and they do not start until June-July. By the screenshots I am thinking this is what I would need.

Basically I would like all of my board users to be able to put their picks on the lets say Premier English League teams. So each week they play game users can add their picks on who is gonna win. Based on how many picks you win you would get awarded certain points.

Those points will be kept until the end of the season (in this case Premier English League), and then we would have the leader on the scoreboard.

I am assuming this is what the pickem looks like?

I know you have the post where you specifically say that you do not have the date when the version for xenforo 2 will be done, you said you are hoping before NFL season (September I assume)... Any chance it will be earlier?

Thanks...

That is the basics of the addon. Its manual administration tho (you have to input the teams, seasons, weeks, games) which can be a bit of a chore when first starting out, but once you get the hang of things, adding a season is a breeze. There is another addon called XF Soccer that might interest you as well. It might be actually better for you as its build specially for soccer were is pickem is built for any team sport.

Any chance it will be earlier?
Highly unlikely.
 
Thanks for the reply. I might have to wait for your version 2, or just try to build one myself (really hard trying to avoid that, have not done php in years). XFSoccer is gone and not coming back it seems.
 
I created one for the world cup, and testing on my site as we speak :)

if it works, maybe I will do the release of the plugin :)

right on :) Love it when people learn how to develop stuff for themselves. Look forward to seeing what you came up with.

Pickem is getting close. Its fully functional (all the development is complete), just minor stuff to do plus heavy testing. Beta should be available sometime next month with hopefully a stable release by the end of August (at least that is the goal).
 
Thanks Bob, Pickem was mostly for the American footbal, although you could use it for the soccer I would say as well. I developed this based on how we played the fantasy league on our forums... here are some screens.

We play the system 1 X 2, where you can select home / away team or the TIE (x).

We are testing it for the world cup and so far its running nice. I am adding more features as we speak, so that there are things like bonus points, and also probably the prediction of the score in future releases.

As I said, I am developing this mainly for my forum, although I might release a version for the public as well.

Ya, we use that system for our Soccer and Rugby pools. Pickem has 4 different pool types (Standard, Spread, Draw and *Survivor). The "Draw" pool type is the 1 X 2 system, just with a different name (in fact, the person that made the original suggestion, called it the 1 X 2 system, but we ended up just calling it a "Draw Pool" instead).

*Survivor is new for Pickem 2.0 (it used to be its own stand alone addon, its now integrated into pickem as a pool type).

things like bonus points
Do it, your members will love it. I added something similar to pickem so that you can assign a point value to each pick type (Home/Away/Draw) instead of just getting 1 point for a correct pick regardless if it was the home team, away team or picking a draw. Example Home: 1, Away: 2, Draw: 3. So if you predict a draw and the game ends in a draw, you get 3 points. This is configurable for each pool and you can change it on a round by round basis (so the deeper into the rounds, the more points players could get for predicting the correct outcome).

Good luck with your addon :)
 
Thanks,

current bonus I have set up is something in these lines. If the current week has 8 games, you can select to award 1 point per correct pick, and then if the users pick 7 out of 8 games correct you can give them additional points, and if they pick all games, etc, you can give them additional points.
 
Hello,

Can you implement css sprite option for pictures ? There are lots of team logos on my board index and it kills the forum speed and the gtmetrix score.
 
Pickem and sportsbook are the best addons for my forum. I am soon going to move to xf2 and will continue to use them when they are out. Just wanted to say thanks for these addons.

Cool, if I didn't post I wouldn't know.
emails are sent for every release (might want to verify that the email address you have associated with your account is current).

@Bob I can't find how to renew my license. I do not see option for renewal, only for buying the software again,
