Olympic Tipping Comp

Tokyo 2020!

100RMB per entry – or just play along for a laugh.

There’s been one competition from each sport selected to tip and a few general trivial posers thrown in. We may add some more as we go but as of now there’s roughly 50 tips to be made.

Part of the idea is to encourage yourself to enjoy some events you otherwise might not have enjoyed. Side bets are of course encouraged.

Points are allocated if you pick the following;

• Gold medalist: 5 points
• Silver medalist: 3 points
• Bronze medalist: 1 point

There will be a dozen or so tips to make before the opening ceremony and then 2 or 3 each day thereafter. Tips must be made by midnight (China time) on the day stated. This is usually the day before medal competition in that event begins or in some cases after some preliminary rounds.
