This paper mentions the probabilistic footy-tipping competition in many places
- such as, e.g.,
sec. 0.2.5, p541, col. 2 (and footnotes 173 and 174)
[and perhaps continuing on into p542, col. 1],
and
sec. 0.2.7, p544, col. 2, footnote 200,
and
sec. 0.3, p547, col. 1, footnote 217.
See also footnote 175.

[This paper includes the writing up of an idea which Dowe clearly and
explicitly articulated (at the Australian AI'2002 conference) in Dec. 2002
which shows how to incorporate Bayesian priors into the log-loss
probabilistic scoring systems of, e.g.,
Dowe & Krusel (1993) and
Dowe, Lentin, Oliver & Hurst (1996).]
