25 by Yikkes! any thoughts on this ? "How do we handle the point that you know who you support but you might predict against them and then bet against them and then really you want them to loose? That has to have implications. And eventually serious ones. Realy screw up the 'Psychic Flow' " H. Yikkes! Quote Wed Jun 06, 2007 10:04 am
26 by Gem Having betted only once, I haven't yet been in the situation you described, but still I woudn't like the team I support to lose even if I betted against them. What are your own thoughts or experience on this, Hamish? Quote Wed Jun 06, 2007 2:06 pm
27 by Ficina Mercury was OOB too, ruling the 2nd and the 10th. I suppose fans would be signified by the Moon I was wondering whether 2nd and 8th might signify the respective fans (supporters/followers) so OOB Mercury would signify the Danish fans in this case. I'm assuming it was a Danish fan who attacked the ref after he sent a Danish player off and awarded a penalty to Sweden. Quote Wed Jun 06, 2007 6:04 pm
28 by Ficina Yikkes, I've found myself in this situation a few times, usually when predicting against England, and I've always wanted the astrology to work rather than see my team win. It's not so much a case of "wanting them to lose" as wanting the prediction to be correct. I'd still feel sad that my team lost though. Bit of a paradox really isn't it?

29 by Ficina Gem, great call on the Croatia-Russia game, 0-0. Well done I don't think we'll be too bothered about getting the score wrong for the England game. 3-0 was an excellent result for them Quote Wed Jun 06, 2007 10:52 pm
30 by Gem Thanks Ficina I'm pleased I got the scoreline for England wrong There were about 4 degrees between the Moon and Pluto; 3 goals were socred by England and Estonia nearly scored a goal in stoppage time near the end, probably around the time when Pluto was on the AC as you pointed out, but it was narrowly blocked by Terry. Yes it was a Danish fan who attacked the ref. A very good point about 2nd/8th signifying fans though I haven't got any other example as distinctive as this one. Quote Thu Jun 07, 2007 3:32 pm
