[wiff]

Have some of the upper crust tipsters lost their nerve?

This could break me out of the dregs league: Hurricanes
Go the irish creamy liquor

 

[benchmark00]

Scorchers.

 

[Tpw123]

Not tipping as can't accept prize

 

[benchmark00]

If I'm not mistaken, that's benchmark00 out of the competition

could this night get any better

One of the ATG calls, right here.

If the Scorchers win tonight this will be one of the all time great tastes. Oh boi oh boi.

 

[Riggins]

Didn't you read Nufan's rules? Semi final points are calculated on a similar duckworth-lewis system*, which means that I am now in first place.


*section 5.3: only in the event of both the underdogs winning the semi finals, and one of the games is shortened due to rain, then all points therefore accumulated are multiplied by participants shoe size.

ive got pretty big feet. and you know what they say ajd00d.

Overall

1 benchmark00 42.4
2 Tpw123 41.5

After adding the points for Semis, you get:

1 Tpw123 43.6 (+2.1)
2 benchmark00 42.4 (n/a)

Assuming the Scorchers don't balls this up:

1. Tpw123 43.6 (n/a)
2. benchmark00 43.5 (+1.1)

Taste.


(Also I drop off the podium for being willing to lose to win, but nobody can question my tipping #intent.)

[Riggins]

[Dan]

I said in my post "if I'm not mistaken". I was mistaken on the rules. No taste.

Uber taste.

 

[Dan]

Also 2 points per finals tip gives Tpw +4 for the 3 matches, and you +2. So he actually increases his lead.

And then loses it for not tipping.

How much did you pay him?

Interestingly, non-tips have not been penalised thus far by NUFAN. Benchmark to be eagerly awaiting the ruling before popping the cork on his bottle of champagne, I suspect.

 

[benchmark00]

Who's to say I'm not him?

Nope, TPW gets -2 for the round for failing to tip. Please update accordingly.
