    <p>Just dropping this in here for some discussions prior to the season starting (Friday 26 Feb, Blues v Highlanders). Any proposed changes to the tipping rules for this season? There will be a maximum of 9 games per week so if we want to limit it to 8 as per usual then I will just arbitrarily drop the least interesting game? Or keep it at 7 and have the old most/fewest points category?</p>

      <p>Definitely an adjustment to what non-tippers score each week;</p>
      <p> </p>
      <p>- All sides Away 17+, or</p>
      <p>- The same score as the lowest actual tipper of all games that week</p>
      <p> </p>
      <p>Whichever score is lowest :)</p>
      <p> </p>
      <p>I initially like the idea of tipping all nine games, though dropping the least interesting game has merit too...</p>

        <p>Yeah, it's humiliating losing to someone that doesn't even turn up.....</p>

          Why not a big fat zero if u don't tip?<br>
          I've done it and it's a horrible feeling but when from time to time you he lucky with a freakish round of away 17+ results, it ain't right.

            <p>We brought it in because of the teams comp - so the team would still be able to post a score when not all tippers turned up. The Away 17+ actually works OK at Super level as it is a rare result - for NPC (especially last season) it failed spectacularly.</p>

              Makes sense, anyway the default score can just go to the team, not the individual tipper? As unlikely as u said a round of 17+ away scores are

                <p>5 points lower than the lowest score by someone that actually tipped.</p>
                <p> </p>
                <p>Removes the possibility of fluking a result but still allows teams to get something for their efforts.</p>

                  <p>I like DM's idea.</p>
                  <p> </p>
                  <p>5 points below the worst score for someone who doesn't tip - that is the worst score for someone who tipped all the games.</p>
                  <p> </p>
                  <p>If you miss games and then tip - you get zero for the games you miss. No excuse for Super Rugby, earliest game is 7.35pm on a Friday.</p>

                    <p>Have a wild card round, pick before the weekend to go for double points for the weekend</p>
                    <p> </p>
                    <p>If you pick all results correct in a weekend, you get a 20 point bonus (regardless of your margins)</p>
                    <p> </p>
                    <p>We dont wanna change too much otherwise we end up like the real super comp....</p>

                      I like that except I would say you have to pick wild card round at beginning of Comp. so you have to guess before anyone has played which teams will be weakest etc. <br><br>
                      Maybe a pick the Comp winner bonus on round one. No one would have picked it last season

                        <p>dunno, I reckon having to pick the weekend before would be better, that way someone might hold onto it until the end, at which time they might have a poor week and make it worthless...</p>
