I had a look through some old threads and I can't see anything on there being a footy tipping league for demonlanders or 'ologists.

Last year I had my name in both, will it be done again this year?

    I'm not sure what they are doing here at Demonland, they usually run one through OZTips.

    We run a Tipping competition in house at Demonology. There is a thread on our Footy Forum with instructions.

    There's plans to implement in-house tipping like on 'Ology (Tim_ stole my thunder, dammit!!), but it's not going to be ready in time for this season. Presumably our tipping will be run through OZTips just as it has been in the past, but I have no idea who organises that.

    Tim's tipping setup on Demonology is pretty good.

    Andy used to set up OZTips, and i'm not sure if WJ has asked him to set it up again. I haven't got the time to at the moment unfortunately.

    As Nozz has said, it'll hopefully be set up in-house for season 2008.

    I've just been corresponding with WJ re tipping sites. I ran one last year and I think I've got all the bugs out.

    I'm happy for Demonlanders to have a go at it (no charge).

    It's a bit different in that teams are weighted. Here's an extract from the rules:

    # The object of this competition is to accumulate points. Points are awarded by correctly choosing a winner. For instance, let's say the game is Carlton vs. Geelong and the points are awarded as 80 for Carlton and 20 for Geelong. You choose Carlton and they win. Then you get 80 points. But if Geelong wins, you receive 0 points.

    # For each game, the underdog team will be awarded more points than the favorite. So in the above-mentioned game, Carlton is the underdog. Also, all points for each game will add up to 100.

    # In the event of a draw no points will be awarded for that match.

    # For an upset special, you will be able to choose among a list of underdogs. If your chosen underdog ends up winning, you get 1.5 times the points possible for that game. Say it was the same Carlton-Geelong game as above. You choose Carlton as your upset special and they win. Therefore you would receive 1.5 X 80 = 120 points. However, if your upset special does not win, you receive 0 points.

    # Choosing the certainty of the week is almost same as the upset special. The only difference is that you receive twice as many points and you can only choose among favorites or teams in even (50-50) games

    Join up and have a go (repeat - no cost!!)

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
