How to enter match results and update scores in a Score Predictor Promotion Follow
Once the matches in a Score Predictor promotion have ended, you will need to enter the official results so Easypromos can automatically calculate the score earned by each participant.
In this tutorial, we explain how to record match results, configure point allocation, and update user scores.
These are the contents of this tutorial:
1. Overview
In the Results tab, you can enter the official results of the matches included in the stage and define how many points participants will receive based on their correct guesses.
This configuration applies both to single-round Score Predictor promotions and to promotions with multiple rounds, as the update process is the same.
From this screen, you can:
- Define the points users will earn for correctly guessing the exact score of a match.
- Configure additional points for correctly guessing only the winner or a draw.
- Enter the official results of each match.
- Automatically update participants' scores once the matches have ended.
2. How to Add Results and Update Scores
Below are all the steps you need to follow.
Step 1. Access the Results Tab
To start, go to the promotion Editor, enter the "Participation Stages" tab, and select the stage for which you want to update the results:
Next, click on the "Score Predictor" tab:
Finally, click on the "Results" tab:
From this screen, you can record the official results and calculate the scores earned by participants.
Step 2. Configure Point Allocation
Before entering results, you must configure the number of points participants will receive based on their correct guesses.
You have the following options:
Points for Correct Result
Define how many points a participant will earn when they correctly guess the exact final score of the match.
For example:
- User prediction: 2 - 1
- Official result: 2 - 1
In this case, the participant will receive the score configured for an exact match.
Points for Guessing the Winner or a Draw
Optionally, you can reward participants who did not guess the exact score but did guess the general outcome of the match (home win, away win, or draw).
For example:
- User prediction: 3 - 1
- Official result: 2 - 0
Although the score does not match exactly, since the participant guessed the winner of the match, they will receive the configured score for this case.
Step 3. Enter Match Results
When all matches in the stage have finished, click the "Add Result" button:
Enter the match result and, if the promotion includes additional questions associated with the match, also indicate the correct answers.
Repeat this process for all matches whose results are final.
Save the changes to record the information.
Step 4. Update Participant Scores
After entering the results, click the "Update Scores" button:
Easypromos will automatically review all recorded entries and assign the corresponding score to each user based on their correct guesses.
Once the process is complete, the scores will be recorded in the promotion.
Note: You can only update user scores once the stage’s participation period has ended.
If the stage is still open for entries, the update will not be available.
Step 5. Verify the Update
Once the update is complete, you can review the user list or the leaderboard to check that scores have been assigned correctly.
Users who guessed the results correctly will automatically receive the configured points, and the ranking will be updated accordingly.
By completing these steps, you will have recorded the match results and automatically updated the scores of all participants in the promotion.
Users will receive the points corresponding to their correct guesses, and the ranking will be updated with the most recent results.
