Done - cheers mate

[dogmeat]

Wow - I'm top of the leaderboard and will stay there until at least tonight as long as no one with a name that starts A,B or C joins the comp.

I haven't plated SuperBru for years but all I had to do was log in and it placed me in the pool. Easy as

I didn't need a code to enter, just logged in and I was there with all you muppets superstars!

[KiwiPie]

We're 9 already - good work.

How does scoring work - is lowest score better? I thought I was rocking it, but sorting by the last column - TDM, I am bottom of the Fern group

[Higgins]

The TDM is the total distance margin between what you picked it would be and what it actually was, thus the lower the better. It is generally used to tiebreak those on win points + margin points (you get a 0.5 bonus if you are within five points of the actual) + bonus points (1 point is awarded to the closest tipper - spilt if there is more than one).

The bonus point is only awarded if someone is within about a dozen or so points of the actual (can't remember the exact amount) eg the closest tipper might pick a margin of 22 and the actual is 67 then no bonus is awarded but tip 22 and the margin is 34 then the bonus will be awarded to the closest tipper - hope this helps!

Ahh, thanks Higgins

Cactus Jack has sprinted out the traps - bonus for picking 7/7 which means of course he picked Northland ....

I won the Bonus Points comp that I just invented

Bonus points the key!

[KiwiPie]

@stockcar86 And you picked the most results (by 1.5) so hard to argue with your victory.

Better wrap this one up now the domestic season is done. Really close for most of the season but our champion is Boongalaulau with Higgins 2nd and Mary 3rd.
