@Stargazer said in NPC Tipping 2020:
@Kiwiwomble I think that has to do with the fact that they need a minimum number of participants in the tipping comp per team. There aren't enough participants to have all the teams, so hence one South Island team. No doubt, @KiwiPie will correct me if I'm wrong.
Yeah, that's right. Back in the day nearly each province had enough to put a team together. Also why there is a Counties-Waikato team.
Sheer lack of numbers for the worlds greatest tipping comp, bar none!

@Kiwiwomble said in NPC Tipping 2020:
first timer...whats with the "south island" rather than all the teams?
As @Stargazer and @Hooroo say it is down to a lack of players. But each year, we re-organise the teams based on who joins. Back in 2006 when the first NPC Tipping Comp was run, we had 12 teams - those were the days
So to join, just tip Week 1 and I'll form up the teams after the tips are in - 6 players per team is ideal, 5 is minimum.

Lets see if I can be the first to go from top to bottom in a year. @Winger should start in negatives to penalize his excellent tipping consistency.

My key is remembering to tip each week. And mostly not getting the teams back the front. Even then I still have had a few awful years where all results go against my picks
