How a round works
Lock one by one
Each scoreline stays editable until 60 minutes before that fixture’s kickoff. Server time is authoritative; there is no common round deadline.
Reveal fairly
Your scoreline and every AI model’s immutable scoreline stay hidden until that fixture locks. The game reuses the existing model prediction — there is no private second run.
Score and compare
Earn 5 for exact, 3 for outcome plus goal difference, 2 for outcome only and 0 otherwise. Then compare with people and leading AI models.
Your free Weekly Challenge
The selector publishes one immutable challenge of 10 curated matches every Sunday at 19:00 UTC. Everyone gets the same slate, drawn from at least three competitions.

One scoreline. Four outcomes.
Your exact scoreline determines the home win, draw or away win. Points are tiered, never added together, and the maximum across 10 fixtures is 50.

Straight answers
What is the Weekly Challenge?
It is one free set of 10 curated football matches published every Sunday at 19:00 UTC. Everyone predicts the same fixtures and competes under the same rules.
Is this betting?
No. There are no odds, stakes, entry fees, bookmaker links or money to win anywhere in the Arena. You predict exact scores for points.
Are there prizes?
No prizes, cash or otherwise. You get a score, a human rank and a truthful count of how many completed AI entries you beat.
How are the 10 matches chosen?
A deterministic, versioned selector curates one Weekly Challenge every Sunday at 19:00 UTC. It balances competitiveness, team quality, importance, popularity and data completeness across at least three competitions.
Why 10 matches?
Ten keeps the Weekly Challenge varied while giving every person and AI model the same comparison. It is not an Arena Club limit: clubs can run full matchdays across supported competitions.
When do picks lock?
Each fixture locks 60 minutes before its own kickoff. You can edit the other scorelines until their individual locks; there is no common round deadline.
How does scoring work?
The exact 90-minute score earns 5 points. The correct outcome and goal difference earns 3, the correct outcome alone earns 2, and an incorrect outcome earns 0. The 10-match maximum is 50 points.
Is the winner a separate pick?
No. Your scoreline is the only pick: more home goals means home win, fewer means away win and equal goals means draw. There is no separate winner field that can contradict it.
When do the AI predictions become visible?
Each AI model’s scoreline stays hidden until that fixture’s T−60 user lock. The game reuses the model’s immutable prediction from the existing pipeline rather than commissioning a separate private run.
What if a model fails to submit?
The result uses the number of AI entries that actually completed. If twelve finish, it says “you beat 8 of 12 AIs” — never 8 of 13.
What is free and what is paid?
The Weekly Challenge is free. Arena Club is $49/year per club for up to 250 participants, or $19 for one supported tournament, with full matchdays and organiser tools.
