It's official, the footytips site sucks.

It didn't register me entering my tips at all. I got given the away teams. 2/8 this week.

That is F^&*$ED!!

So it IS the site!

It also failed to register my tip change from Freo to Melbourne last weekend.

I'm almost speechless I'm that angry.

I'm actually more upset about the tipping than I am about breaking one of the mugs from our dinner set this morning.

So are you guys saying you selected your tips, pressed the "Submit tips" button and then saw the blue ticks through your selections, but come the end of the round you were given dud tips. Or could you not enter the tips at all in the first place?

Yes.

Happened the week before when I changed my Freo tip (I know...what was I thinking) to Melbourne on Sat morning (about 10am), and it didn't register. I'll take that one, but a whole round??!! :mad: :mad: :cry: :cry: :cry:

That's shit luck. Never had a problem with the site myself but it's not the first time I've heard similar complaints either.

Footy Tippers,

Just to let you know I have been in discussions with KK and I am willing to accept his story.

I have manually adjusted his score so that he will be given 6 winners for the round.

Hopefully this won't upset anyone (actually looking at it, I'm one of those most affected!!!!!!!!!!!)

I can guarantee you, it won't be me.

Started well, 2/2 at 4pm, and Hawthorn looking the goods.

Still sitting on 2. :oops:

I think I may have stuffed second.

I don't think you need to worry about that.

I know a few people who got 7 this week. The only real upset was North Melbourne. The rest were 50/50 really.

Haha, the North game was one of the few I was confident with. :lol:

Perhaps that's why I'm down the bottom of the ladder. :donk:

Hung on to win by 1 tip over Beantown. Would have been funny if he leveled with me, the margin difference over 22 rounds was just 1!

1. Pickles
2. Beantown
3. buzzaaaah
4. Kaptain Kouta

KK had the best margin out of everyone in the comp.
4 people ended up with an overall score of 122.
None of the top 3 managed to score an 8 all season.
KK finished 4th and got 8 twice.
Windy finished 5th and got 8 3 times!
In round 8 seven people got 8 correct tips.
In round 11 eight people got 8 correct tips!
Ryan8024 finished last with 103 tips for the season.
