Mine shows up sometimes, but not others. 160, last time it showed.

Yep funnily enough when I made that post above it showed mine, but now I've reloaded this thread it's not any more.

Wondering if it has something to do with length.

 

[Exe Gesis]

I always thought it was girth that mattered more

So you can't see "Tip rank: 10" underneath your team name?

Can now, can see it for everyone on this page now. Couldn't before though.

 

[estibador]

Haha you suck at tipping Chief.

Thanks, Chief

Re: BigFooty AFL Tipping Thread 2012

It has been changed! Thanks very much to who ever it was!

Well good for you, mine hasn't been changed yet - still showing GWS incorrect tip

There was an issue with the new stadium leading to a duplicate match being included for the North - GWS match leading to some odd behaviour. Sorted now

Awesome, thanks Jim Boy

My 2 cents.....
I preferred the format used last year, where the points won for a correct tip was based on their odds of winning. It gave some reward for tipping against the crowd when you think the underdog is better than popular concensus. It forces the tipper to consider both opponents for each and every game. The current format gives us many games with an "easy-to-pick" winner.

I also liked that it gave big footy a point of difference from most other tipping competitions.

Current way is better, this way i'm actually doing well in my tips. Last year i sucked.

OK, I'll put this here, I don't know where else to put it and I don't want to start another thread.

I know I must be missing something obvious, and I'm really sorry in advanced for asking a stupid question, but why can't I get this link to work:

http://www.bigfooty.com/tips/index.php

I mean the link works, but my login doesn't work. I assume it's the same login and password I use here (and on the old site) - I put them in and the page just re-loads. Is there something I'm missing??

 

[Chief]

What do you mean "can't get it to work"?

 

[Chief]

Hang on - did you read this thread, as linked in the notice on every page?
http://www.bigfooty.com/forum/threads/xen-issues-list-check-here-to-see-what-were-working-on.955222/

It does not work yet.

Ahh, I'm a dill. So it's not just me then. I did see that link/thread etc., but I misread it to say that it is working and you just have to follow the above mentioned link.

Thanks Chief, you're doing a good job keeping a handle on things, answering stupid questions like mine etc., with all this stuff going on.

 

[Chief]

My face is all the flatter for the palming.

BTW - tips are live now - http://www.bigfooty.com/tips

 

[EagleOz]

[Chief]

What is the error message? I've just logged in over there fine.

 

[EagleOz]

it's all good, my computer has decided to wake up and work properly. it is working now.

[Chief]

Anyone with problems, send me your tips in a conversation on here and I will get them in.

 

[lemon chicken]

Not worried about having the tips in but same as PapaJ, go to login and the login screen just re-loads, no error message though. Using Chrome if it helps.

Went back in to the tipping pages later after clearing cookies and cached content etc in firefox - was then able to login successfully. Too late to tip the cats though, 14 points off the margin in my other tipping comp.

BTW - That SQL error is still there, must be a table that needs to be renamed in the query or has been removed:
AFL Tipping Top 20 - 2012
