Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Irish Championship Tipping Competition
-
24-07-2019 4:34pm#1Yes folks it's back. The reigning champion is Retd Capt Loyola while the holder of the wooden spoon is Tim Harding. Both are favourites to retail their titles.
This year the scoring is slightly different, to discourage too much safety play.
Each tipster gets three predictions each day.
1 point for correctly predicting a win by a higher rated player
3 pts for a draw
6 pts if you predict a win by the lower rated player.
Now for the landmines
If you predict a win by a higher rated player and he loses you lose 6 pts and if you predict a draw that ends up in a win for the lower rated player you lose 3pts. If you predict a win by a lower rated player and he draws you lose 1 point
Hopefully someone who isn't playing in the championship will keep a tally of the scores.
Each tipster is asked to also predict who they think will win the Irish Ch and who will be second and third so that this can be used in the event of a tiebreak.0

Decent turn-out for this one! I can't decide if Shane deserves a bonus point or to hit a landmine for tipping himself to win on board 1
One landmine hit though - SodaBread sinks to the top of the Tim Harding Wooden Spoon standings after predicting Scott to beat Killian (but he drew). And we have a surprise leader after correctly spotting two of the four draws!
5 players pick up 3 points for predicting a draw for the wily Fox. Should really only be 2 points for that...
Won't have time to update this for the whole week, and suggest best is for posters to keep their own score updated as we go along. But for now, I make the standings as below.
