2022 World Cup Sweepstake - Teams Revealed

[BaZ87]

Like with previous international tournaments we'll be running a sweepstake again for the World Cup. It's a bit of a last minute job so I don't want to promise but hopefully OcUK will be kind enough to donate a small prize for the winner(s). It's 200 posts to enter - sorry @ThundyCat if you'd be kind enough to steal people's posts once they've entered.

I've numbered each team twice so the teams are numbered 1 to 64 and this has been sent over to @Andybtsn so nobody can accuse me of cheating when they end up with Scotland.

If you want to enter just pick a number between 1 and 64 and if somebody would be kind enough to pick a number for both myself and Andy that would be great.

Update: A big big thank you to @fiveub and OcUK for providing two incredible prizes for the winners. We have a Ducky Keyboard of the winners choice and this brand spanking new noblechairs Gaming Chair:

Now to be clear, the winner doesn't get both the chair and keyboard, it's one or the other and because we will end up with two winners we're going to have to come up with some sort of tiebreaker to decide which winner gets which prize.

*I'll try to update the OP with the numbers picked as often as possible but please try check the few posts prior to yours so that you're not taking numbers already chosen.

[BaZ87]

Can somebody pick numbers for me and Andy please and please specify which number is for who.

 

[BaZ87]

29 has already been taken.

 

[BaZ87]

10 for me please.

@Baz - 33 for yourself.

Oh you are a lovely individual!

 

[BaZ87]

I'll update the OP with details of the prizes a little later today but OcUK really have delivered

 

[BaZ87]

I didn't see a number for you, you can have 12.

Somebody has already given me a number thanks.

 

[BaZ87]

14 for me please

Sorry, you don't have the required posts to enter.

 

[BaZ87]

The OP is updated to this point. I might not be able to update it much in the next couple of hours so please check any posts after this to make sure you don't pick an already taken number.

A big big thank you to @fiveub and OcUK for providing two incredible prizes for the winners. We have a Ducky Keyboard of the winners choice and this brand spanking new noblechairs Gaming Chair:

[BaZ87]

There's just 9 spots left open and of those, 3 are sides that have a realistic chance of winning the competition. Lets get this wrapped up so I can reveal the teams later tonight.

 

[BaZ87]

If we don't get the numbers I'll take one of those, for the team.

Tbf I think I should be getting multiple entries for my time and effort. In fact I think I'll just take the chair and leave you lot with the keyboard to play for.

 

[BaZ87]

57 please

That green Newcastle shirt is going to come in handy.

When’s the big reveal?

As soon as the last 5 teams are picked.

 

[BaZ87]

I asked for 43, not sure if you've seen it.

Oops. I did add you to the spreadsheet but didn't update the OP.

[BaZ87]

This is punishment right for ripping Liverpool right?

Are you suggesting I fixed this in any way?

33 - BaZ87 - Brazil

 

[BaZ87]

Exactly! Could have been a lot worse although number 33 is sus...

The best thing was a 2nd person picked me a number, not knowing I had one already, and picked me 12 which was Brazil too. It was just meant to be

I've just noticed they are in the same group!!!

Vuvuzela at the ready

Vuvuzela's are banned items on this forum I'm afraid. When we look back in 20 years time, the vuvuzela will be remembered as playing a big part in the death of International football.

 

[BaZ87]

Any ideas on how we can separate the two winners when it comes to giving out the prizes? At the moment all I can think of is picking a number between 1 and 50 and asking the two winners to guess, the closest gets to pick which prize they want.

 

[BaZ87]

Something to do with the final maybe? Have them each PM you the number of cards/corners/goals or something like that and whoever gets the most right gets to pick?

That sounds more fun than me and Hilly playing rock, paper, scissors over whatsapp.

 

[BaZ87]

When The Netherlands win, the other fella can have his choice

(possibly do an overall goal difference for the winning team for the tournament?)

The two winners will have the same team so the goal difference will be the same

 

[BaZ87]

Me and @Azza will have a think about it lol.

If Ecuador win it then I'll buy you both a chair.

I won't really.
