There is one more thing I would like to ask. (3) In my pool, challengers who pick the correct winners have always been awarded the same number of points as the number of points that were scored by the winning team. I wonder if this could easily be done.

Thank You. Very Clear. I will change my rules rather than doing anything to change the inner parts of the plugin. No problem. My final round of question has to do with the pick sheets and the UTC dates.
Every week, (for 14 weeks during the season), I want to offer 30 different games that will all be played on Saturday. Hence, I will manually create a different Pick Sheet for each week. I will set the prediction stop date to be on the Wednesday before each Saturday. (a) How do I create a Pick Sheet that shows only the games for the upcoming week (not showing the games that have already been played)? (b) What is the purpose of the “Match Types” function? (c) Could the this function be used to separate the pick sheets as “Week 1”, “Week 2″, Week 3”, “Week 4”, etc.? (d) If so, how can I use it this way?
Thanks!

The [fp-predictionform] takes a collection of match ID’s and/or match types as a parameter (see help page in the admin for details). With this shortcode you can create a pick sheet with just the matches you want.
Match types are a way of grouping matches. I use them for the FIFA World Cup to separate matches in the group phase, quarter finals, semi-finals, etc.
You can use the match types to group matches per week. And use a match type to quickly add a pick sheet for only those matches, e.g. [fp-predictionform matchtype="1"] for the first match type.
