How PredixHub works

1. Find the matches

   The bot posts each fixture in your server’s predictions channel. Every post has the two teams, the kickoff time and the buttons to answer with.

2. Make the call

   Tap home, draw or away, or enter an exact score. You can change your mind until the match kicks off.

3. Collect the points

   When the match finishes, points are added automatically and the table updates. Nobody has to close a round by hand.

The rules that matter

• Picks lock at kickoff, match by match. Until then you can change yours as often as you like.
• Nobody sees your pick before kickoff. Once a match starts, everyone’s picks become visible on the Picks page — that is what makes the crowd numbers honest.
• A blank is not a prediction. To call a 0–0 you have to enter 0 and 0.
• A postponed, cancelled or abandoned match is not scored for anyone. It simply drops out.
• On the web you can fill in a whole matchday and save it in one go.

When points arrive

Scores are checked continuously and points are added as each match finishes — there is no end-of-round button to wait for. The Discord recap post that names the matchday MVP is an announcement of results that are already on the table, not the moment they are calculated.

Seasons

An admin can run the server league as a named season. A season has a start, an end and a champion; when it closes, the standings are frozen and a champion card is published. Points are always counted inside one season, so a new season is a clean slate for everyone.

Rank and tiers

Your position on the ladder is converted into a career tier by percentile, from the whole ranked population:

Two things stop a lucky week from buying a tier. You are placing until you have played enough rounds to be rated at all, and the top tiers additionally require you to have played a minimum share of the season’s rounds. Your tier and your OVR (a 40–99 rating) appear on your Football ID card.

Where to look

Make your Football ID

Your player card: the parts you choose, and the parts you have to earn. It takes about a minute.

1. Open Football ID

   On the web, Football ID is in the sidebar under “You”. Open the Identity tab — that is the form; Overview is the finished card and Badges is what you have won.

2. Fill in what you like

   Ten fields, all optional, though the card comes alive once the club is set (it supplies the crest and the colours). Start typing in Club and pick from the list so the real crest is attached.

3. Press Save Football ID

   The card renders itself immediately. You never pick a template: the finish comes from your Football DNA, the field behind you is sampled from your club crest.

4. Show it off

   Type /card in Discord to post it in the chat. The Identity tab also gives you a public link that anyone can open — no login, no Discord account needed.

We do not send a DM to tell you something you already know. Every message has to be worth the interruption or it is not built.

1. Add the bot

   Use Add to Discord and pick your server. It asks for what it needs to run a matchday in your channels — read and send messages, embed links, attach files, add reactions — plus Manage Roles, used only if you switch on the automatic leader and champion roles.

2. Post your first matchday

   Run /setup in your server and follow the button it gives you. It opens Create Poll on the web dashboard, which is where every matchday is built — there is no command that posts matches for you. The next step walks through it.

3. Let it run

   Fixtures and results are synced automatically and points are calculated as matches finish. Use /announce_matchday when you want to post the recap and name the MVP.

4. Join the ranked ladder (optional)

   Run /ranked setup and choose two channels: one for the ranked matches, one for the global leaderboard. You can also set a mentionable role to ping when a new round drops. Rounds are then delivered to your server automatically.

Posting a matchday, control by control

Everything below is on one page: Create Poll in the sidebar (admins only). The left half lists fixtures, the right half is your draft, and nothing is posted until you press Publish.

1. Pick the competition

   The Competition dropdown at the top loads that competition’s upcoming fixtures into the left-hand list. On a free server you run one competition at a time; adding more matchdays to a competition you are already running is always free.

2. Add the matches

   Each fixture has an Add button, and the button above the list takes the whole lot at once (it shows the number, e.g. Add 8). Anything already posted is greyed out and marked Posted, so the same match can never go up twice. Up to 20 matches per batch.

3. Choose how each one is answered

   Every match in the draft has a switch: Exact score (predict the scoreline) or 1·X·2 (winner only). Set the Default answer type in the toolbar first and every match you add inherits it. Knockout ties are set to exact score automatically.

4. Say where it goes

   Discord channel is the channel the posts land in. Matchday is the round number — leave it on auto and it continues from your last one. If you have set a predictor role, Ping the predictor role notifies it, and you can untick it for a quiet batch.

5. Publish

   Publish to Discord & web posts every match in the draft. They appear in the channel within a few seconds, and on the web Matches page at the same time — one prediction, both places.

What else you control

• The announcement channel, the builder’s default channel, and whether a role gets pinged when new matches are posted.
• Seasons — start one, end one, and publish the champion card.
• Custom leagues for competitions the football data provider does not cover: your own teams, your own fixtures, scored like any other.
• Members — every destructive action asks for confirmation first, and you can remove a member’s data on request.

Everything an admin can do lives on the web dashboard; the slash commands are shortcuts into it.
