Cell formulas for scoring points

[EVANS8773]

HI,

Its been years since i have used excel and have a query. I am going to be running a football/Soccer competition in work in a few months and i have to keep track of points people have scored.

You have to predict the scores of 3 games.

In the picture the correct score in Everton 3 Arsenal 2 and Mark Evans has correctly predicted the score.

If you get the score correct you get 3 points, if you get 1 teams score correct you get 1 pt.

So i have a formula in Q6 that says c6 matches c29 and it adds 1 point to Q6.

what i need is (nesting ?) so if C6=C29/D6=D29/G6=G29/H6=H29/K6=K29/L6=L29 it adds 1 point to Q6

HOWEVER if they get the correct score it adds 3 points to p6 not 1+1 to Q6

So in the example points would be 3 points for predicting score Everton 3 Arsenal 2 & 1 point predicting Villa scoring 4.




Hope someone can help

Cheers

A picture doesn't help anyone because they have to reproduce your data by hand. If you use XL2BB that effort isn't required.
Also, please change your profile to indicate which version of Excel you are running as different versions have different features.

Note: Images are difficult to see , and also requires that I input all the data myself, which means I may make an error, which is very time consuming, and from my point of view less likely to get a response, if a complicated spreadsheet. Plus we cannot see any of the formulas used.

Therefore -

A SMALL sample spreadsheet, around 10-20 rows, would help a lot here, with all sensitive data removed, and expected results mocked up and manually entered, with a few notes of explanation.

This will possibly enable a quicker and more accurate solution for you.

MrExcel has a tool called “XL2BB” that lets you post samples of your data and will allow us to copy/paste your sample data into our Excel spreadsheets, saving a lot of time.

OR if you cannot get XL2BB to work, or have restrictions on your PC

then put the sample spreadsheet onto a share

I only tend to goto OneDrive, Dropbox or google docs , as I'm never certain of other random share sites and possible virus.
