Duritz, I think you've got a nice simple idea there. Would be pretty easy to run. I agree though that you'd have to make a rule that you can't miss more than one week in the month. Otherwise somebody could strike a good winner in the first week and just sit on that for the rest of the month and not tip at all.

Would you like to have a go at running this idea or do you want me to do it? I think it sounds quite good and importantly pretty simple.

I'd still like to have a crack at the Daily Challenge thing as well though if people are willing??? Can I get an idea of how many of you would be willing to have a go at the daily challenge? Not much use if there's only a few of us.

OK I'll have a go at running this comp. I'll start a new thread for it now. I can't promise to be as efficient and reliable and hard working as you were, but I'll give it a crack. Importantly, there'll be less work with this one!!!

The current Tipping Comp as it is, is getting a tad stale. Time for a change. I suggest from now on for our tipping comp, we all use the AAP Racingandsports Daily Challenge. I think it will be great fun.

For those that don't know, the Daily Challenge requires you to tip one horse in each race at up to 4 different venues and you are then awarded points based on wins, placings, prices and dividends.

Anyway, this is how it would work. Every Saturday, we would all put in our tips for the 4 meetings on the AAP Racingandsports site. (You have to have your selections in by 11:59 AM) We could also post those selections on here I guess. Then at the end of the day, people would post how they went. We would tally up the scores for each Saturday during the month to get our monthly tipping comp winner.

So what do you think? I reckon it would be very interesting and more like a regular tipping comp. Also less work for me. :D

this one on this weekend?
