Tipping Eliminator
Expand Help/Faq

Quick Tips

  • Pick one winner each week, to build up a 'win streak' of correct picks;
  • Each team can only be picked once during your streak;
  • If you pick a losing team, you are eliminated. Your best win streak is stored and you may start again;
  • You must select your Eliminator tip for any round you wish to participate in BEFORE the start of the first match of that round;
  • If you're not feeling confident for any upcoming round, you may skip it without breaking your streak.

How Eliminator works

  • Tipping Eliminator challenges you to pick ONE unique winning team and maintain a streak of wins during the 2013 NRL Season, with the maximum achievable streak being 16.
  • The catch is that you can only pick each team for any upcoming round ONCE during each streak of wins. Once you've picked a team that wins, they can't be selected again for the remainder of the current streak.
  • A losing team picked means that you are 'eliminated' and your streak comes to an end, however you can immediately start on a new streak (and all teams will become available for selection again).
  • You must select your Eliminator tip for any round you wish to participate in BEFORE the start of the first match of that round;
  • Eliminator is all about picking winners. If the result of the match is a DRAW, the pick will be voided - you'll NOT be penalised and you won't receive a correct result. You'll simply maintain your streak and may choose that team again in a future round.
  • If any team does not play in any given round, they'll not be available for selection and your Eliminator options may be limited.

Not feeling confident?

  • If you're not feeling confident (or you forget to make a pick) for any upcoming round, you can simply skip it. Your streak will be maintained without any penalty.
  • Be sure that you don't run out of rounds to maximise your winning streak - remember, the maximum achievable streak is 16 and skipping too many rounds may mean that you run out of rounds and opportunities.

Your best streak

  • Your best win streak will always be stored even if you're eliminated.
  • You'll be ranked based on your best win streak until and if/when you can improve on it.
  • Your margin prediction is used as a tiebreaker if there's more than one entry with the same win streak. This score is accumulated throughout the Season, with the lowest margin score being the highest-ranked.
  • Your margin score is associated with your streak and stored with your best streak. If you're eliminated, your margin score is also reset.
Point scoring
Stat Description Points Awarded/Deducted
Win streak The win streak score is incremented by 1 for every round where a winner is selected.
Non-submission If an entry is not submitted for any given round, that round is void and the win streak is maintained.
Incorrect tip An incorrect tip breaks the win streak and the entry is reset to 0. The best win streak is stored and the entry is ranked on this basis, until and when that win streak is improved upon. Margin prediction must be submitted for a valid entry in upcoming round .

One Team Tip
Expand Help/Faq

Quick Tips

  • Select one team for the Season;
  • Each round, pick whether they'll win or lose and submit your margin;
  • Maintain the lowest possible margin score based on the accuracy of your predictions.

Select one team, predict the score

  • One Team Tip tests your skill and nerve by predicting the result of your single selected team over the entire 2013 Season.
  • Select your team on entry (it can be your own team that you support, or any other).
  • Each round you'll be required to predict whether your selected team will win or lose, and the score margin.
  • You will receive a margin score each round based on the accuracy of your prediction. For example, if you tip your team to win by 10 points and they only win by 5, your weekly margin score will be 5 points. If you tip your team to win by 10 points and they lose by 15, your weekly margin score will be 25 (the difference between your prediction and the actual score).
  • You'll be ranked based on your cumulative margin score, with the lowest score being ranked highest.
  • If you forget to enter your One Team Tip prediction for any upcoming round, you'll receive the average margin score for that round from ALL entries in the competition. Similarly, if joining at a later stage during the Season, you'll start with an average score for all missed rounds from all entries.
Point scoring
Stat Description Points Awarded/Deducted
Margin Score & Cumulative Margin Score One Team Tip entry is ranked on the basis of the lowest Margin Score awarded being the best (see left on how the Margin Score is calculated).

Comps FAQs.

Q: How I do create an office Comp, or a group where I can compete against my friends? A: If you've been invited to join a group by a friend or relative, please use the information that was emailed to you to join that Comp. If not, you will be given the option to create your own Comp and invite other friends and relatives to join your Comp, on registration. You can be a part of up to five Comps.

Q: I've found out that all of my friends are in another Comp. How do I swap Comps so I can play against them? Can you move my entry for me? A: You can swap Comps on the Comps page by clicking on the 'CREATE/JOIN' (to join an additional Comp) or 'LEAVE' (leave your current Comp and join the new one) buttons and entering the desired Comp Code in the box provided on your Comp page, at any time.

Q: How do I enter a new public Comp? A: To enter a new public Comp, you will need to create one. In your Comps page, simply click on the 'CREATE/JOIN' button and follow the instructions. That Comp will then be merged with other tipping entries after the publishing of the next round's results.

Q: How do I leave a Comp? A: In your Comps page, simply click on the 'LEAVE' button to leave a Comp. Please note, you must be in at least one Comp.

Q: Why can't I invite people into my Comp? A: If you have been invited into a Private Comp, then only the Comp's creator has the ability to invite more people into that league from their Comps page.

Q: Can I remove people from my Comp? A: If you are a Private Comp creator, you will have the option to remove people from your Comp.

Q: Do I win a prize for coming first in my private/public Comp? A: No. Unfortunately due to the enormous amount of users/Comps in the overall competition, it is virtually impossible to organise and award prizes to winners in each Comp.

Q: Can I change the name of the Comp that I created? A: Your Comp name is a unique identifier in the game and can only be changed prior to your Comp's first round of play.

Q: The Comp that I was in is now different, or its name changed... Why? A: We may add entries, or merge Comps where they do not attract enough competitors. All care will be taken to ensure that all original entries that you had in your Comp will still be there, in addition to new ones. Your Comp name may therefore change based on these movements.

Q: I just joined. Why wasn't I added to a Comp, and where is the option to create one? A: Everyone who signs up for Official NRL Tipping will be a part of a Comp. Look for the "Comps" link and button in the menu bar on the left to access your Comps.

The Margin Score is calculated based on the difference between the submitted Margin Prediction and the actual result. For example, if a team is tipped to WIN by 10 points and the actual Result is a WIN by 5 points, the Margin Score awarded will be 5 points.
