World cup tipping game (sweapstake like)

Mexico 

Senegal and Ecuador

Heh, nice work picking the only team to have already won a game. ;)
Two teams from the same group is interesting. 

so can we just pick our second team now? or do we have to wait until our turn?

Still go in order. Oi oi was 16 & 17 so two in a row.

ohhh that makes sense.

if we can get it finished today, we will if not will call it off.  3 games so will be big advantage if we keep going   kwlap up next

POT A: xxx, xxx, xxx, xxx, xxx, xxx, xxx, xxx

POT B: xxx, xxx, xxx, xxx, xxx, xxx, xxx, xxx

POT C: xxx, xxx, xxx, Australia, xxx, xxx, xxx, xxx

POT D: Qatar, Iran, Saudi Arabia, xxx, Costa Rica, Morocco, xxx, Ghana

Denmark

Cameroon

ClubOranje

Cameroon

What would i do without ya.   Sorry been really busy so will be a bit more careful.

Rockhopper is next.
to help make sure we finish it asap anyone else can make a list of their picks.

e.g. if you are 3 picks away pick 3 teams in order so when it your turn we just pick the top team you picked that is still available. that way we can hopefully get through it a lot faster

i believe i am 6 picks away so
1 Serbia
2 Canada
3 Poland
4 Wales
5 Japan
6 U.S.A

2. Japan

What a result 

but I do have Japan, and the team they beat - yay!

Feeling a bit smug after missing my pick deadline meant I pretty much had to choose Spain

First round over and done with so here are the points.
if you see any mistakes let me know

2nd round done
some big changes, but with qualification points starting to hit after this next round possible huge swings.
again if ive made any mistakes let me know

Praying for another Japanese "upset" against Croatia!!!!

Praying for another Japanese "upset" against Croatia!!!!

definatly doable

sorry for the late update, life got in the way.   this is the update at the end of the group stage, and will update again after the round of 16.  tight race at the top that could swing either way but think a few people including myself can give up hope of winning it.

sitting top now, but with no teams left in the tourney it wont last long

Well with 13 players and only 8 teams left after tomorrow’s games there will be others in that boat.
With Croatia facing Brazil, I don’t hold much hope for surviving the quarterfinals either, so I’ll likely be joining you as a bystander
