WC Tipping Comp [ Winner = NHpeter ]

WC Tipping Comp [ Winner = NHpeter ]

I realise detoxin is running one, but since that is full, would anyone be interested in another one? I hope detoxin doesnt mind. Ryan's Rovers2010-07-12 11:35:55

Yes.

The same style as Detoxins? Or like your other ones?

How dare you!!!!!

lol, of coarse i don't

Keen

Was thinking, if there was alot interested, it would be fun to do a knock out style one, with a pool stage leading into knock outs.

I'll do it if it's different to detoxins one obviously.

id be keen then ryan,

Hoping by explaining my plans better, more people will post their interest. For this to work, need at least 16 people, more the better ofc.

Pool Stage:

6 People per Pool. Vacant slots will be added if needed, they will pick all the sides that are offcially the Away team.

5 Rounds in Pool Play. You face off against everyone in your pool once. 3 points for more correct tips, 1 point for equal correct tips, 0 points for less correct tips. Each round will be 3 days worth of World Cup Group Stage games.

Knock Out Stages:

Top 16 people from the group stages advance to knock out stages. (if we have 3 pools: 5 from each & 1 lucky loser, if 4 pools: top 4 from each pool, if 5 pools: top 3 & 1 lucky loser etc).

The top 16 will be seeded on how many correct tips they have, and will tip on the 2nd round of the World Cup. If people are equal on correct tips, it will go on their 'goal difference' from the pool stages.

Whoever gets the most tips correct moves on to the next round. Incase of a draw, I will get people to guess the total yellow cards they think there will be in the round, whoever is closest wins (if there is a draw on that, it will be whoever posts their picks first).

This continues till there is 1 person left standing at the end.

I like the head to head idea.

I will partake in it if it's sufficiently different from the other one.

i will participate if its different to Detoxins so count me in.

I'm in... if I'm not too late... what is it?

Sounds fantastic, keen as a bean.

seeing as i won your super 14 tipping thing ill give this a go

it does look like yours has been taken over by Stealthkiwi.

If there is still room RR, can I join yours?? no worries if all the spots are gone.

at the risk of being labelled a tipping comp whore, i'll be keen if there is room

I'd also love to take part in this. 

I will draw pools on Tuesday night next week, so people have untill then to express interest :)

Yo.

i actually knew you were a she... don't know why i wrote he. and i am pushing them along to i mail them when its turn, i sent a email to nolans personal email to get nolan to make picks.. among others, but thanks, i'd agree with that last statement to

I'm in

Was hoping for more people, but I am still happy to run this. Atm we have 14 people, so unless we have people take over the Vacant slots, everyone will make the 2nd round.

The rankings for the 2nd Round games, will be done on points scored in pool games, using 'Correct Tips' to separate people on the same points. That way the pool stage is still worthwhile.
