NPC Tipping 2020

@Stargazer said in NPC Tipping 2020:
@Kiwiwomble I think that has to do with the fact that they need a minimum number of participants in the tipping comp per team. There aren't enough participants to have all the teams, so hence one South Island team. No doubt, @KiwiPie will correct me if I'm wrong.
Yeah, that's right. Back in the day nearly each province had enough to put a team together. Also why there is a Counties-Waikato team.
Sheer lack of numbers for the worlds greatest tipping comp, bar none!

@Kiwiwomble said in NPC Tipping 2020:
first timer...whats with the "south island" rather than all the teams?
As @Stargazer and @Hooroo say it is down to a lack of players. But each year, we re-organise the teams based on who joins. Back in 2006 when the first NPC Tipping Comp was run, we had 12 teams - those were the days
So to join, just tip Week 1 and I'll form up the teams after the tips are in - 6 players per team is ideal, 5 is minimum.

Lets see if I can be the first to go from top to bottom in a year. @Winger should start in negatives to penalize his excellent tipping consistency.

Just feast your eyes on the live leaderboard for the rest of the week!

@taniwharugby i just enjoy watching the rugby. My hearts not in the tipping. Plus I can never pick Northland to lose.

Last call to enter the tipping competition, the first game is tonight. 29 entrants so far not including myself and a few regulars are yet to join - if we can get to 40+ that will be perfect for an 8 team competition.

Also I reactivated the Superbru comp for those who play it.

My key is remembering to tip each week. And mostly not getting the teams back the front. Even then I still have had a few awful years where all results go against my picks

27 of 48 entries in for this week, get your tips in before the first game tonight. You need to be one of the top 16 scorers for the weekend to go straight to the main TSF Cup draw - everyone below 16 will go into a qualifying round next week.
