Tipping comp week 7 update. (2017)

[globaleagle]

Hiya ladies and germs,

As @lsz is basking away in his mankini, real work is being done back here in the real world, really!

I'm not surprised to see some 8 out of 8 scores this week (and equally non-surprised that I was not a part of the perfect scorers club.)

We all know that there are a few of us who 'will never tip against Manly' and many cold and heartless buggers that will under the premise that they are 'using their heads' of which very little evidence exits for such use on this forum (lol....cough.)

It's a bit tough when the bonus game is a Manly game I reckon, but allegedly it's not done for certain mods posters to make their way back up the leader-board - allegedly! *wink*

Here's the full list of perfect posters so we can boo them!

Jethro
Jock
Tragic-Eagles
Rusty Cage
Manly To Win!
Wombat64
Eagleheart

I believe @Jock picked the correct margin of 4 points so an extra boo for him. @Jethro is a mod so I'll just assume something fishy is going on and boo him as well. Boo!

So, what does the leader board look like now?

Who cares!

Unless you are.......


Eagle1188 47
Manly To Win! 46
Wombat64 46
Tragic-Eagles 45
swoop 44
ALinda 44


@Eagle1188 remains in the lead (well done) and
@Manly To Win! , @Wombat64 , and @Tragic-Eagles all move up a place over @swoop who is lulling us all into a false sense of security before he strikes...watch out!

@ALinda (not to be confused with 'the' Linda) jumps up and gets a mention here (highly sought after mention here, I might add. I add it as no one else would.)

For a while I thought I was going to be a tipping genius with the tigers leading parra 22-10 with not long to go. They lost and I'm not.

The overall leaders list can be found here:

https://silvertails.net/pickem/2017-jan-davis-memorial-tipping-competition.3/?week_id=142

Or basically under the 'Tipping Competition' menu on your screen.

If your lack of tipping prowess is annoying you...then:

So, once again, thanks everyone for supporting our site and I'm sure you're all looking forward to lsz returning from holidays. 🙂

Party on!

your friend,

I am going a bit like Manly, terrible start, then making ground but still plenty to do. At least I have advanced to page 2 of the leaderboard!

 

[niccipops]

Discrimination I say. No mention of the people at the bottom of the leaderboard.
We have feelings too.
No mention of the folk who may have got a clean 0 out 8 in an easy week because they hate all the teams that won. This is a carefully thought out strategy you know.
To all you good tippers, stop thinking start hating!
Rage against the storm, broncos, raiders, roosters, sharks, dragons and especially the dogs and slimy eels.
There is only one team!
Go Manly!
I dedicate my poor tipping performance to the overall good of the Mighty Sea Eagles and I'm happy to pay the fee to the Mighty Silvertails site.😀

Tsk tsk, attention to detail Nicci - you put the Raiders instead of the Rabbits.

Interesting, I notice that all of the leaders have Avatars of Eagles.

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

Yeah but so do plenty of also-rans...

 

[wombatgc]

Thanks @globaleagle . You're doing a great job. I've officially done it....I've backed against the boys this week....scorn me if you must....but being in the top 20 is just too much to resist..

[Manly To Win!]

I was sweating with 20 minutes to go in that Tigers match.

Of more importance who is running dead last?

And no doubt back to work today Nicci.........bugger!

 

[globaleagle]

Of more importance who is running dead last?

tis hard for the 'dead last' people as I think there are a few who pay....but don't bother picking (to support the site.)

So (and you can check this yourself)... it looks like:

Velocity 10
vidmar 7
manlyfan76 1

But I think MF 76 picks all draws except for once and well...look I dunno.

We all support Manly are therefore by default no one is 'last.'

ta dah 🙂

 

[ALinda]

Thank you @globaleagle for your friendly update and kind words

(ps if I could easily change my profile name from 'A' then I would )

Well done to those with a perfect score! To the rest incl. @niccipops - there's plenty of time to get ahead in the comp

 

[Rusty Cage]

Boo away peoples!!!!

 

[niccipops]

Tsk tsk, attention to detail Nicci - you put the Raiders instead of the Rabbits.

I hate them all. ALL!

 

[niccipops]

I gave you all a picture of a cute hamster, with a motivational saying....what more do you want???????? 😛

lol

Thank you for the hamster.
My pet Sea Eagle would eat him but he's a lovely hamster and you're very considerate.

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

Hey @globaleagle or @lsz ... after round 7 I had 34 correct, and I got 7 in round 8 but my total says 38...maybe it just hasn't fully updated yet?

It hasn't updated as yet. 🙂

edit: ya high scoring bugger! 🙁..... 🙂

 

[Dan]

I'll check it in the morning to make sure it's completed

 

[Chip and Chase]

Hey @globaleagle or @lsz ... after round 7 I had 34 correct, and I got 7 in round 8 but my total says 38...maybe it just hasn't fully updated yet?

Patience grasshopper.........should be all up to date now. Or was that just a sneaky way of broadcasting the fact you got 7 from 8 ?
