Shebeen Posted March 20, 2014 Share This event is ideal for a good betting challenge, so this is an attempt to create a concept that can add a bit more fun to the keyboard spectators and pundits amongst us. Pick a winner for each category, and then three teams for the podium in any order. OverallWinner - 5 pointsPodium - 2 points each African Jerseywinner - 3 pointspodium - 1 point each MixedWinner - 3 pointspodium - 1 point each MastersWinner - 3 pointspodium - 1 point each Ladies - 3 pointspodium - 1 point each stage winner (elite category)1 point each. Rules:* selections must be in before the start of the prologue* no editing of posts after the prologue starts! that's it, no prizes but street cred on the line EDIT-changed rule #2 edit your selection if you want, but can't be adjusted come sunday morning.

Could we not simplify this and keep it to the overall podium places instead of for podiums in just about every category?

SwissVan Posted March 21, 2014 Share It's not complicated, you are just too lazy. Lazy and complicated is not the same thing. That may well be true, or maybe I just don't have time to go and research who the potential competitors are for the African jersey, masters, mixed teams.....

nathrix Posted March 21, 2014 Share I'm prepared to put in R100 in the kitty, hubber with the most points gets R100 paid into their account. Obviously rules as per Shebeen's post above. Money gets split between those if there's more than one with the same high scores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
