Higher\Lower

Post by blahblah »

A few years ago there was a top Comp (not sure who won :wink: ) where we picked whether a manager went higher or lower than the previous GW and bet x whatevers on it.

I'll put my team up for the guessing and will post in RMT any changes, cards etc. All will have 1k points and a free go on whether I beat the Average or not.

Winner gets bragging rights on the best FISO Comp, and the right to have their team used next season?

Sounds like a laugh.

Just for clarity though, are we guessing whether you beat the average in GW1 and then whether you get a red or green arrow in the weeks after that?

Yes to 1st.

No to second: it's higher or lower than the score in previous GW.

Plugged it here and here for you.

I'm pretty sure I've seen somewhere that Romyn plans on doing a new list for 2021/22 at some point so hopefully he'll add you to that.

The water goes down the plug hole differently down here but it still goes down. You can not beat gravity ( and FPL) :)

It is true. I even did a trip to Kenya and went across the border at the equator just to see if it went straight down. Clockwise N H and anti S H :)
Straight down on the equator :shock:

One of the highlights of the trip :) and also to trek up mt Kenya and Kilamanjaro, the border crossing was necessary. It cost me 100 cigarettes and $5 US (1981) in bribes for the border crossing even though the visas were legit it was a bit scary.

When I went to Kenya the Yanks bombed somewhere so we had to fly back over land... On the plus side we got a close (not too close) view of Kilimanjaro (one of my fave albums) and flew along the Nile too 😎

A bump as I've updated the RMT.

It'll be great fun picking whether I go Higher or Lower than the previous GW, which is another reason to BB in GW1, so enter you miserable bstrds!
