Hi @KiwiPie are we doing a tipping comp for super rugby?

Yes we are! And thanks to the usual efficiency of @Duluth it is live now on
It is back to the usual format with 6 games per weekend and the same TSF Tipping teams as well. Spread the word so that everyone joins before Friday. If you're new to it, tip for the first week, pick a team or play as an individual (although you may be assigned to a team) and let's roll.

Might need to remove the Blues v Moana Pasifika game? It's been postponed

Could just take it as a draw and when it is finally played either use it in place of 'extras' or ignore it.
-
It's more about the menus, the two people who tipped early have picked that game for the largest margin. Anyone that isn't aware of the postponement will probably pick that game

Yep I have updated the form to show it is cancelled and taken them off as options to be selected.
Note to @mikedogz & @Canes4life - please resubmit your tips.
-
Tipped. Thanks for running this again.
Apologies to my teammates, but I'm going for some hail mary's in the first round...
-
For people that like to make their picks after the teams have been named..
All the SR sides have named their teams for round 1. Teamsheets can be found here each week

Tips are not showing on tipping sheet. Tried twice but no joy

Can see both now

Relying on my memory the following regulars are still to get their first round tips in.
@broughie @kiwiwomble @delicatessen @duluth @ARHS @JK @Corkscrew @stag @mikey07 @laurence @buck @dogmeat @Cactus-Jack @neovarian @DK @sportboy @justin77 @gunner @Virgil @bayimports @Tim @plastered-peni
Remember tips must be in by 2145 NZ time tonight If you miss that then you can still tip but you won't get any default points for the first game.
No doubt there are some I have forgotten about from the above list so don't take that as a slight and you are more than welcome to enter into KPs Super Rugby Tipping Competition, many rate his one the world's best! Also newcomers, especially the likes of @NZbloke, or returnees from a sabatical, don't be shy get your tips in and have something extra riding on each and every game. You never know we might even get some long suffering Blues supporters putting their money where their mouths are so to speak, maybe the likes of @nzzp et al might be tempted?
Anyway here is the link to the tipping sheet for this week
- Good Luck to everyone in this warm up to the vastly more important and prestigious NPC Tipping Contest that comes later this year
-
@higgins I'll be in.

if you need me i will tip, ...poorly lol
-
"regular" might be a stretch, second season on the board and last year i kept forgetting to tip
-
@kiwiwomble That was last year when it was a bit disjointed, hopefully you will get into the habit and routine of tipping at, say, every Friday lunchtime.
-
@bayimports The more the merrier, you need to keep tipping to retain your position in the team in the unlikely event of someone trying to steal your spot!
-
I'm in
-
@higgins thanks fella, but I gave up on tipping years ago. I suck at it, and always wind up missing picks during the comps for some reason or other (life!). It makes a mediocre performance prop up the bottom of the table.
so thanks, but no thanks - I'll just support the Blues
and note that it's nearly a year since we had live semi-pro or pro rugby live in Auckland.Edit: not strictly true - ABs played in August. Apologies, I really missed Auckland playing in the NPC and am still bitter
-
As Higgins says, get your tips in before the Waratahs game to be in from the start. Get your tips in after that and still take part.
-
@kiwipie Hey Kiwipie just confirming that you received my picks from yesterday?
-
@mikey07 Yes, they are there. You can check for yourself by going to the Current Tips tab on this link https://www.thesilverfern.com/tipping/ you will see them on line 25 of the spreadsheet that will appear. If you want to check in future weeks be advised that the most recent entries are always at the bottom of the spreadsheet so you will have to scroll down to find them.

Well blimey I didn't even think about this did I. Not that it matters as I got all my tips in in the big show (npc) and still did horrifically.
How do we know if we're assigned to a team? I'd be keen to jump on one of the Hurricanes bandwagons if they're not full.
-
@delicatessen At this stage both Hurricanes teams need tippers (Golds x 2 and Blacks x 1 - subject to PAJ fronting up). You just select whichever team you like when submitting your weekly entry sheet. If there are more than the required six then Kiwipie will draft you somewhere else but that is not applicable for the Canes teams at the moment. If that does happen to you checking the results (KP usually has them up sometime on Monday) will show your score and which team you are in. If you are late getting your tips in before the start of each round you get the default tip of Away 17+ for games you miss but that will not help you for last nights game!!!! If you miss the entire week you score five points less than the lowest scorer for that week.
Good Luck

This post is deleted! -
@higgins Cheers mate, at this point I'm probably better to miss the whole week than tip on one game, can you whack me in there for Canes Black at the 5 points below the lowest scorer mark?
-
OK this is the team allocation so far - achieved getting at least 5 into each team. Notable missing are @sportboy @Paj @Cactus-Jack @barbarian @Bones - welcome to newcomers @Machpants @Samurai-Jack plus John Nolan, William, Neale Davies - not sure who you are on here so feel free to identify yourself. Just need everyone to keep tipping and we'll have a great season.
Leading with maximum points before the Brumbies game are Higgins & Neale Davies.

@kiwipie ahh go on then, if canes black need a player I can try and help out.
-
@delicatessen has also declared himself a starter for the Canes Black as per a couple of posts above now that PAJ appears to have vacated his spot. Canes Gold still look to have a vacancy!
-
Everything is live after week 1 and the tipping form is ready for Week 2
Plastered Peni leads by 2 after getting 3 out of 4 category picks correct. Nearly everyone picked 5/5 results so your placing was dependent on how well you picked the margins. Wins for the SunJags, Barbarians, Canes Black and BOP Chiefs.
-
Not sure if everyone knows the scoring system in place.
Pick result and margin correctly = 10 points.
Pick result and next door to margin = 7 points. (pick 9-16 and it is 17-24)
Pick result and nowhere near margin = 5 points. (pick 17+ and it is 1-8)
Pick 1-8 and it is 1-8 to the other team = 2 points.
NOTE: If a 17+ scoreline is actually 25+ then a 9-16 pick only scores 5 points.
A draw in a game means nobody scores any points.
The category picks (top scorer etc) are each worth 5 points.Team scoring is the average of the top 5 scores for that team so it is good to have 6 in the team to be able to discard one score.
4 points for a win.
2 points for a draw.Team bonus points.
- Score 3 or more maximum scores (10 pointers) than your opposition.
- Lose by less than 7 points.
-
@kiwipie good to know, thats why I didnt do well!
-
Can I resubmit tips given Chiefs game is cancelled? Will there be a new tipping form that eliminates this match?
-

Yes and yes - will post here when form updated.
-
Form is updated with Chiefs v Moana Pasifika game removed and category picks updated.
Tippers so far are below - please resubmit your tips, thanks.
@Hooroo @Waynes-World @Machpants @Crucial @Kiwiwomble @Bones @Canes4life plus John Nolan (don't know who this is on the Fern)
-
@kiwipie punished if ya forget...punished if ya early
-
I voted twice. If possible can I stick with my first selection. That is the Blues to win. Thanks
-
Yeah look with canes black back up to full strength without me, if my tips getting cancelled isn't a sign, I don't know what is.
Just call me joe
-
Reminder to top for Week 2 https://www.thesilverfern.com/tipping-submit
Just about to do mine but copy them at your peril
-
@bones You are part of the full strength Hurricanes Black so your tips are required, especially after the good start your team had to be in the playoff positions. You need all six members to tip each week to make sure anyone having a stinker can have their score discarded from the five that count toward the match you are playing, this week it is the BoP Chiefs and you need to beat them to shove them into the plate division!
Quite a few others still to tip (myself included!) so come on all of you lot, there is just over two hours until kick off in the first game at 1905hrs NZ summer time.
