FAQ

The short version of scoring, locks, visibility, and leagues.

How do I score points?

Exact scorelines earn 4 points. A correct non-draw winner with the right goal difference earns 3 points. A correct outcome with a different goal difference earns 2 points.

Do penalty shootouts count?

No. Scoracle scores the match result after normal time or extra time. If a knockout match is tied after extra time and decided on penalties, the prediction outcome is still a draw.

When do predictions lock?

Each prediction round locks at its deadline. After that point, saved predictions can no longer be changed.

When can league members see my predictions?

Predictions stay private until the round deadline. Once the round has locked, eligible members in your private leagues can see them.

How do private league join codes work?

Each private league has a permanent join code. Share it with the people you want in the league; anyone with the code can join.

Can I delete a league I made by mistake?

Yes, if you own the private league and no other members have joined yet. Once another member joins, the league stays in place.

What is the Overall league?

The Overall league is the platform-wide leaderboard for the active tournament. Verified users are added automatically.
