How it works

How Pick Party works

Start with the simple version: make your ballot before the deadline, come back for Pick'em rounds if they are enabled, then follow the reveal and rankings.

Most points wins.Ties share the same rank.

Ballots

Your beta entry is a four-team ballot. Every team uses the same scoring formula.

Deadlines

The main ballot locks at the league deadline. Pick'em rounds lock at kickoff for that round.

Pick'em

When a knockout round opens, pick every match winner and save before the lock time.

Reveal

Picks stay private until the league reveal. Then everyone can compare entries.

01

Start from the league tabs

The league is split into simple places: Picks, Rankings, Predictions, Matches, and this guide. Use the tabs or arrows to move around without losing your league.

The active tab has the dark background. That tells you where you are.

02

Make or edit your ballot

Open Picks, choose your table name, pick an icon, then choose one team for each ballot lane. Saved names edit the same entry, while a new name creates a new table entry.

Fill all four team selectors before pressing Save Picks.

Use Pick'em when a round opens

If the league has Pick'em enabled, a knockout round appears when its fixtures are ready. Pick one winner in every match before that round locks.

The lock time is shown at the top of the Pick'em panel.

Read the table after the reveal

Rankings show the race, Predictions show who picked what, and Matches show live scores. Before the reveal, names may show while points and picks stay private.

Create a league with the right options

On Create League, you can name the league, add a picture, and decide whether to add Pick'em. If you add it, choose the knockout round where winner picks should start.

Pick'em is optional. Turn it on only if your group wants winner picks after the ballot.

Points

The scoring in plain language

Ballot points

Every selected team scores 1 point per win, 1 point per goal scored, and loses 1 point per goal conceded. There are no tier bonuses.

Group and knockout Pick'em

Group table Pick'em gives 1 point per exact group position, up to 48. Knockout Pick'em gives 1 point for each correct winner after a result is known.
