Just dug out the rules

Will start the thread on Sunday night, once teams and
tipsters are known

Have changed the previous minus 10pts for an incorrect
game, to minus 1

Otherwise the same as in previous years (...I think! )


-----------------------------------


1) RSRL PLAY-OFFS TIPPING COMP


Open to anyone.


Simply tip the result of each play-off game.


To score points you must tip the correct team. Points are
awarded according to how close to the actual margin
you come:


Tip correct margin.....................................25 points
One point away from actual margin............20 pts
2 points away..........................................19 pts
3 points away..........................................18 pts


etc etc down to,,,


18 points away.............................................3 pts
19 points away.............................................2 pts
20 points or more away from correct margin.......1 pt.


Tip the WRONG team,however,and you end up with MINUS 1 pt


----------------------------------------------


2) "VIRTUAL" Play-offs Competition


For the top 6 players in the Ladder


Played to the same format as the actual Play-offs


eg in the first week #1 and #2 have a "week off" ( though of
course they are free to enter the other comp`n above.


#3 plays #6
#4 plays #5


Points are scored as shown above.


Players can enter the same tips as for the first competition,or
different ones.


In the event of a draw,the player who finished higher in the Ladder
progresses. (i.e. home advantage)


(Tips can be sent to me directly,in case anyone thinks there`s
an advantage to be gained by seeing someone else`s tips first)

I won't be here for the final, and as it looks like Saints (IE me) will be
in the final, I may not bother, although this isn't cast in stone yet.
