    Doing a weighting system of 5 points for a first place prediction
    and 3 pts for 2nd and 1 pt for 3rd gives an overall prediction

    46 Sam
    46 Tarun
    36 Conor
    17 David
    13 Tom

    so where are the tipping rules and how many points do I get for my first prediction coming true?

    Tipping rules are in the first post.

    First round results up in the next few minutes.

    Round 2 not up yet, but imagine it'll be there shortly, and predictions can be taken then.

    Just to note you don't need to tip someone to win/draw. You're just picking the ties which may have an upset. If it's a draw, you get points; if the lower-rated player wins, you get points.

    So a bumper field of 24 players! It's amazing how many lurkers we have on here. :)

    Only one duck egg, and while we had a few players tipping themselves, I don't think anyone scored points for it.

    The leaderboard as I see it is -
    [B]Player	        1	2	3	Rd tot	B/F	Score	Rank[/B]
linsanity	2	2	5	9	0	9	1
Retd.LoyolaCpt	2	5	2	9	0	9	1
spidersweb	5	2	2	9	0	9	1

bpj999	        5	0	0	5	0	5	5

rapidrook181	0	0	2	2	0	2	16
sodacat11	0	2	0	2	0	2	16
Soda_Bread	0	0	0	0	0	0	24

    Again, let me know if you think I've made a mistake - it's entirely possible!

    B/F is the score brought forward from the previous round (obviously 0 for everyone here). Rd tot is the round total, and Score is the total at the end of this round. 1, 2 and 3 then are the individual scores for your three tips.

    Today's pairings FYI, re-ordered by scores rather than board numbers.
    I hope it will be possible to follow all the games today; sympathies to those who are struggling overtime to get it working.

    It's good to have the all-Kanyamarala clash out of the way early.
    The other pairs of siblings may have to meet later but it's less certain.

    Trisha K v Tarun K
    S. Melaugh v Fitzsimons
    Byrne v O'Donnell
    D. Moran v Daly
    S. Collins v Wallace
    T. O'Gorman v O'Connor
    Murray (.5) v Casey (1), all-Gonzaga clash
    O'Connell (.5) v Jackson (.5)
    Adam Collins (.5) v Leon Putar (.5)
    Delaney (0) v Lara Putar (.5)
    Brady (0) v Cafolla (0)
    Venkatesan v Flynn
    McHugh v Lyons, all-Benildus clash
    Alice O'Gorman v Carroll
    G. Melaugh v Peoples
    Mirza v MacElligott

    You dont need to predict who will win , just the games where there will be upsets,,2 pts for draw, 5 for win by lower rated player

    Pick a game

    If it's a draw, 2 points

    If the lower-rated player wins, 5 points

    Otherwise, nothing
