Haha I remember watching that live! Before I moved here and only because Apolo Anton Ohno was a bit of a hottie back in the day and a massive favourite to win. Steve ended up with some award from the Queen I think

And he still pops up regularly in random stuff. Such a funny story

For those of you unfamiliar with Marble Racing (one of the tips this week), here is an article and video to use as a guide.
It takes hours and hours of capping to determine the edge in this sport. Good luck.

A guide to marble racing, the sport that has exploded while we have no other sports to watch

https://ftw.usatoday.com/2020/03/marble-racing-jelles-sports-espn-origin

No NBA. No NHL. No MLB. No golf. The NFL is in the offseason. We've gotten virtual with NASCAR. But there is one sport that has taken all their places as social distancing continues during the coronavirus pandemic: marble racing. Jelle's Marble Runs

Joe Buck even calls these races.... https://twitter.com/i/status/1242592305783152641

**Optional** · 04-23-20, 01:30 PM

5 hours left to get early prop picks in for week 2

This is what we’ve come to...marble racing

Next it’ll be someone throwing paper clips into a red solo cup at this rate. Oh well... good luck this week everyone!!

**RudyRuetigger** · 05-07-20, 06:44 AM

i forgot a few last week but too far back anyway probably

**JAKEPEAVY21** · 05-07-20, 08:08 AM

Melbourne petrol prices are apparently about to spike tomorrow so there’ll be another one I get wrong

**shari91** · 05-13-20, 11:26 AM

I genuinely thought this flippin contest would go on for one week, two at MOST! And now we're about to enter our tips for week 5

Bloody nightmare... I feel like Mel Gibson in Braveheart screaming for freedom

Shari seemed to set hers for 5, in which case this is the last week. Good luck,Tanko. I see youre in first. Im happy if i can finish top 3. but I have little to no idea what the fook any of these things are, although I did see UFC, so I do recognize that

Good luck.

Youve officially won

If Opti and I chose the same UFC fighter-Tie for 2nd since somehow we even tied the tiebreaker of total degrees off for the 5 weeks
If we chose different ones, of course, whoever wins the fight

Obviously, its just luck to win this.
There is no skill picking some of these "contests"... The name, "Novelty Tipping" fit well.

- Marble races
- Gas prices in Melbourne
- Temperatures at Sydney
- Lotto number Odd/Even

Good luck on 2nd CJ.

Thanks Shari for starting up this contest.

**cjwatsonfan32** · 05-17-20, 01:07 AM

Results

1. Tanko
2. Optional
3. cjwatsonfan32 (3 Celsius degree tiebreaker)

Optional comes roaring out of the depths with a perfect week to claim second.

I would like to protest, though, because I thought in Australia, odd numbers were the American even numbers. Kind of like how the toilets flush backwards.

Whew...
Opti ACED the last week to make a run at 1st.
Even after missing Week 3 he was near the top. Impressive tipping Opti.

Only one guy beat him after he went Blanko one week? Fidgetty vegemite mate!

I mean he did have home field advantage. I still cant figure out how to switch my weather app from Celsius to Fahrenheit. Knoxville has been below freezing for a while now but it just doesn’t ever feel like it.

I am super sharp at picking coin flips like odd/even

Better to be lucky than good, as they say

I plan to visit a friend in Knoxville, and do the Bristol night race, one day when we can travel again. You'll have to come to.

**Tanko** · 05-19-20, 08:22 AM

Shari,
Is this contest over?

Near the bottom of the home page for our group https://www.footytips.com.au/competi...itionId=623656 indicates it ends after 5 weeks.

Is that the case?

Thanks

I think Shari was over it by week 1.5 I think she’ll give us our points by the end of the week. She’s been having to deal with scammers.

Thanks CJ... I'm not worried about the timing on getting the points, I just want to confirm the contest is over so I don't have to make week 6 picks. On Footytips.com, week 6 selections are available and I'd rather not have to make any more picks.

I agree with you... Shari working on scammers is more important than this contest.
