    Red face *FTR* World Cup Predictor League

    I've set one up so we can see how little everyone knows about football.

    I'm happy for some more betting if people are keen.

    www.Oztips.com
    League Name: FTR World Cup Shizzle
    League number: #225298
    Password: Cuntflaps (I was drunk when setting this up - thought the password was funny, though now sober it just seems vulgar )

    Sign up and get involved!

    I'm in (though not signed up yet).

    $10 winner takes all? Or some sort of SNG payout structure if we get enough peeps.

    I think the password is a thing of beauty.

    Bump again...

    doesn't look like much interest. So we'll have fun amongst ourselves.

    I'm happy to do for money or just for fun.

    $10 it is then.

    Somone else wanna escrow? - I've already got $320 in my Pstars account from the sweepstake. If I take this as well I may have to withdraw and move to Iceland.

    Football World Cup Predictor - I thought some of you may be interested.

    I can escrow if you'd like. I'm currently escrowing for the Fish HU tourney too and haven't run off with the money...yet.
    That's how winners play; we convince the other guy he's making all the right moves.

    Sure - probably no need to escrow though given the small number of participants and that, presumably, we trust each other. I'm cool either way.

    Please tell me when you ship and the screen name you are shipping from.

    Edit: I thought I pressed the Edit button and I really pressed the Quote button. Now I quoted myself.

    I'd also prefer an escrow if pos, any of the regs will be fine.

    It's not that I don't trust everyone in the thread, it's just that forums are easy to forget about and it's gonna be lame for the winner if they have to chase people up

    Losing Prop Bets
    I'd like to join this league and would be in for the $10. So I set up my team and made some picks. However, not sure if I've selected everything I need to select. Wilbur, am I set up and good to go?

    BiD - I can see you on the league. So assuming you've done all your tipping (I can't veiw who you've tipped) you're good to go.

    Losing Prop Bets
    I'll be gone for a week without a laptop, so if I dip in the standings during the second round - oh well.

    I'm chuffed at hitting the front but now fear that I've done this too early - only way is down!

    Still pretty tight throughout.

    Judging by the gap that's opened up I'm guessing most of the UK entrants backed England yesterday - fools.

    FML.

    I went with my gut feeling in Japan / Paraguay and Japan narrowly lost. So, with the points level, I went defensive and backed Argentina even though I had a feeling the Germans might win. Now I backed my hunch again with the Germans and find myself a point down with 2 to play.

    It's all over, settecba wins.

    You had six players, amirite?

    Should I ship already?
    That's how winners play; we convince the other guy he's making all the right moves.

    No. Not over yet, 2 games to go.

    BTW I thought we were 7 playing, but now I see XTR never shipped, so yeah 6 players then
