    Re. .17 
    
    Theres no penalty shootout in the first round. A draw is a draw.
    The top 2 teams from each group (2pts for a win, 1 for a draw) qualify
    for the knockout phase along with 4 wildcard teams who finished 3rd.
    
    Then the matches go to extra time/penalties if required.

    P.S. I forgot to mention, Italy will win the final beating Argentina
         by 3-2.

    I was visiting another planet.....
    
    but I'm better now.
    
    
    Of course there are no penalties in the first round!! 
    Don't know what I was thinking!!
    I'm sorry...OK??
    
    with head bowed in shame,
    PJ
                                                               
    
    
    
    PS  But wait until Round Two....then we have penalties!!!!!

    Go Cameroon, what a team!
257.27CAM::WAYTerminate with extreme prejudiceThu Jun 14 1990 17:381
This truly is an upset of epic proportions...8^)
257.28Africa has arrivedOURBOX::LAZARUSDave Lazarus @PCO,321-5183Thu Jun 14 1990 18:0612
    I'm not sure Cameroon and Eqypt are pulling upsets. I think the African
    countries have been improving since 1982 (Cameroon) and 1986(Algeria)
    and  Morocco. They are bringing a new style to the world cup and have
    improved to the point that there should be at least 4 African slots in 
    1994. 
    
    How about expanding the World Cup to 32 teams? 
    
    Add 2 or 3 from Africa,1 or 2 from Asia,1 or 2 from North America and
    the remainder would be from Europe.
    
    
257.29JUPITR::MOKCharles P. MokThu Jun 14 1990 19:052
    Seriously does North America deserves any more representative than 2 if
    the U.S. is in?
257.30CAM::WAYTerminate with extreme prejudiceFri Jun 15 1990 10:059
Quite probably.

Our team did qualify by beating other teams.  Granted, Mexico was not
in contention, which probably positively affected our chances.
But with the number of countries that could potentially qualify,
another slot or two could not hurt...

257.435 way tie for contest #2 championCSCOA3::ROLLINS_RThu Jul 05 1990 10:3514
Per rules of contest #2, it stands as follows:

24 pts.  REFINE::ASHE, ISLNDS::MACDONALD_M, TOPDWN::METZGER, JUPITR::MOK,
         ILOV14::PATTERSON
22 pts.  REFINE::MISURACA, CSCOA5::ROLLINS_R
18 pts.  CSC32::J_HERNANDEZ, AYOV27::OPS, 4159::NAZZ
16 pts.  YUPPY::STRAGED

There was no tie-breaker mentioned (picking champion, for example), and
since each of the 24 pt. people have both Argentina and West Germany, there
will be a five-way tie for the contest #2 champ.

Note, if there were a tie-breaker, one person selected Argentina, two
selected Italy, one selected Holland, and one did not pick an overall champion.
