How to play Investec Bank Super 14 Challenge
The game is really easy to play once you get your head around the basic concepts.
The aim of the game
The aim is to score as many points as possible. You score points by making accurate predictions of the winner and margin of victory in each game of the tournament.
Prediction model
In the Investec Bank Super 14 Challenge you must predict the winner (or draw) of each game in the tournament, as well as the margin of victory. For example: Blues to beat Brumbies by 11 points. A prediction is known as a pick. You can make picks for any game in the tournament on the make picks page, but it's generally best to go week by week as the form of each team becomes clear.
Scoring system
The scoring system is carefully designed and finely tuned to reward accuracy and create the possibility for playing with different strategies. It's worth understanding before you make your picks.
Pools
The game is played in pools of several players. You can set up your own pool and invite your mates to join you. Alternatively, you might be invited to join a pool. You can play in up to pools. Manage what pools you are in on the my pools page. If you aren't invited to a private pool and don't want to set up your own pool, you'll play in a randomly-assigned public pool.
The global leaderboard
As well as competing as a big fish in your little pool, you'll also be playing as a tadpole on the global leaderboard, which includes every player of the game. The best players at the end of the tournament may be eligible for prizes, as may the player who makes the best aggregate predictions each week.
Email reminders
We will send you a reminder to make your picks by email around 48 hours before the start of each round. This is a courtesy, and we won't be held responsible for you not making picks because you did not receive the email (one never knows what will happen with spam filters etc.)
