For anyone unfamiliar with a sweepstake, everyone who enters the competition draws one of the 20 teams in the competition at random, and in our case they get a rep prize if their team wins (or comes close!).
Rep prizes will be awarded as follows: 500 rep for the user(s) with the winning team 300 rep for the user(s) with the runner-up 200 rep for the user(s) with the third-place team 150 rep for the user(s) with the team that concedes the most points in the pool stage
If you want to enter, please post 'I'm in!' below. You don't need to know anything at all about rugby for this one – your sporting knowledge is sadly of no help up against the random draw.
Please sign up before 6pm on Monday 4th September. I've got a very busy week next week so I'll be drawing the sweepstake later that evening. The first 20 will be guaranteed a place, and I'll try and fit everyone who wants to play into the draw somehow!
It doesn't show in that box as it's not a user giving you rep. As far as I am aware, the process is that your points total gets edited.
This is correct. @Kallisto I do it by going into the backend of the site and manually updating the number, so I'm not sure you'll even get a notification.
