RWC match threads & Tipping

[Duluth]

New RWC Sub Forum

Theres now a RWC Matches sub forum:
https://www.forum.thesilverfern.com/category/67/rwc-matches

With the NPC and RWC on at the same time there's ~15 matches a weekend. This makes things a bit easier to find

After the cup is over it'll merge back into regular match thread forum

---

Tipping

We're running a half-arsed tipping competition as well. Don't expect anything as well run as Kiwipies..

Each match thread has a poll in the first post with four margins

1 point for the correct result
3 points if you get the correct result and margin
No one gets points if it is a draw

To enter just vote in all the polls. Each poll closes automatically at kickoff

Most matches the margins are 1-8 or 9+ for each side. However for some of the pool matches against 'minnows' the margins vary. I've tried to pick margins based on margins the betting sites are suggesting

[Duluth]

I'll tally up the scores on Mondays

[Duluth]

Just a reminder to vote in the match polls:
https://www.forum.thesilverfern.com/category/67/rwc-matches

You have until kick off in each match

Also remember we have all the team sheets here (NPC & RWC): https://thesilverfern.com/teamsheets

Quite a lot of people voted in the AB polls and not many others. I think ~35 voted in every poll.

Bayimports, Dolamite, Higgins & Tordah nailing plenty of margins

I picked every result and only one margin.. maybe I should change the point system haha

Next set of polls will be added soon

[Machpants]

Bloody margins killing me. Oh and not wanting to vote against ABs. Only have to take that hit one more time haha

[Duluth]

@Duluth said in RWC match threads & Tipping:

Next set of polls will be added soon

Added the AB's one..

I'll wait a day or two for the others polls. I'm setting the margins based on betting odds and a few games don't have data yet

[Bovidae]

@Duluth I couldn't vote in the Italy-Namibia game despite this being well before kickoff. There was some error occurring.

[Duluth]

@Bovidae

Yeah I think that one accidentally locked too early (am vs pm). I didn't notice until after match.. and no one else mentioned until now

[Duluth]

Week 2 polls are up:
https://www.forum.thesilverfern.com/category/67/rwc-matches

Looks for the "RWC Week 2" threads if you want to get all your voting done now

I made the polls and somehow forgot to vote in them all

[mariner4life]

either i haven't voted every time, or i need to stop doing it drunk if i have failed to correctly pick at least the winner 5 times out of 16

[voodoo]

I missed half the last round

Probably wouldn't have mattered much

[Duluth]

This weekend you diligently voted in every poll apart from the AB game. Then, like most people, you didn't get the Fiji result

[mariner4life]

i went and checked
didn't do Japan v Chile
and inexplicably chose Argentina v England? idiot

[voodoo]

I missed Wales v Portugal, Ireland v Tonga, and Samoa v Chile!

[Kiwiwomble]

....thought i was coming right but now wondering if everyone else just forgot to tip

[Duluth]

New polls are up: https://www.forum.thesilverfern.com/category/67/rwc-matches

If you want to get all of this weekends voting done now look for "RWC Week 3". There's 8 of them

[bayimports]

I take the @Kirwan NPC approach and don't actually think too much about it lol..it works

[mariner4life]

I'm so far behind I'm already trying to sniff out upsets
