COMPETITION RULES
    • šŸ“Streaker Competition Rules

    Welcome to Streaker, where consistency is king, one wrong tip can end your week, and the only thing hotter than your tipping form is the hypothetical nudity in the name.

    1ļøāƒ£ How to Play
    • Every week until the end of the home and away season, tip the winner of each AFL match.
    • Your score for the week is the number of correct tips you make in a row, up to the first incorrect tip.
    • Once you get one tip wrong, your streak is broken and your score is logged ends for that round.
    2ļøāƒ£ Perfect Round Bonus
    • If you tip all games correctly in a week, your score carries over to the next week and is added to that week's streak score, just like in ten-pin bowling.
    • Perfect back-to-back rounds? Yes, the stacking continues. Get ready for some juicy numbers. And remember you're always just one good round away from hitting the front.
    • Score stacks are limited to only two rounds, so a maximum score for a round is capped at 27.
    3ļøāƒ£ Timing Is Everything
    • All tips must be posted before the bounce of the first game of the round.
    • Edited posts after the start time of the first game will be disqualified for that round. No exceptions.
    • If you would like to change a tip before the game has commenced, you must make a separate post and as long as the time stamp of the new post is before the first bounce the change will be noted.
    4ļøāƒ£ Draws
    • If a game ends in a draw, no point is awarded for that game, but your streak does not break. Think of it as slipping on a banana peel but landing safely on your feet.
    • If you correctly tip a draw you will be awarded 3 points for being so brazen.
    5ļøāƒ£ Late Tipsters
    • If you forget to tip one or more games but tip others within the valid time frame, only the tips submitted on time will count.
    • Youā€™ll start your streak from your first tipped game, not necessarily the round opener.
    6ļøāƒ£ Posting Format
    • Simply provide a list of your winners. Tips should be clear and understandable to me. If there's any doubt, your tip may not count.

    7ļøāƒ£ Leaderboard & Tie-Breaks​

    • Weekly and cumulative leaderboards will be updated after each round.
    • In the event of a tie at the end of the season, the winner will be the player with:
      1. The longest single-week streak.
      2. A coin toss. (Kiddingā€¦ mostly.)

    8ļøāƒ£ Spirit of the Game​

    • Donā€™t be a jerk or try to game the system. The Footy Gods are watching.

    • ROUND 6 - REVIEW
    • Round 6 Wrap ā€“ The Naked Truth

    And we're off!

    We flung open the gates, and while a few participants came out hot, most face planted straight out of the change rooms. Leading the charge with a red hot streak of 3, bergholt showed the rest of us how beautiful a good streak looks, before he fell to the misplaced belief that Fremantle at home somehow become a good team. Well done Bergholt, enjoy your early lead and bask in the glory of Round 6 honours.

    Behind him, bakes10 deserves a firm pat on the, uhm, back for hitting a tidy 2, while Sarcoidevo just managed to sneak on the board and clock a modest but meaningful 1.

    These three legends can hold their heads high while the rest of us... well...


    Do Better Season 1 GIF by Paramount+


    A whopping 17 players failed to pick a winner in the opening match. Thatā€™s right, 17 streak scores of zero. Itā€™s an impressive display of synchronized streaking snafu. Either it was tactical tanking, or we're just a shy bunch. By shy I mean shy of any actual footy intelligensia.

    But fret not, this is only the beginning. Streaks grow fast when youā€™re hot, and Round 7 is a clean slate. Shake off the shame, double check your tips, and maybe, just maybe, we can collectively shed the donuts next week.

    I'd say let's pull our socks up, but I'm not sure if that fits the bill.

    • ROUND 7 : REVIEW
    • Streaker Round 7 Wrap-Up: The Early Polls Are In!

    The votes are being counted and the early frontrunner is clear: bergholt is the peopleā€™s choice, storming to an impressive 8-point majority!

    Trailing in a hung parliament of five are dct66, dudeintheswamp, PoppedCorn, sammm, and myself, each polling a respectable 5 points.

    Grav and Squirtles are the next best pairing on 3 points, before a large group of independants are packed in tighter than a sausage sizzle line on Election Day!

    Meanwhile, Kildonan and marcus1232 have pulled a Clive Palmer registered their names but failed to show up on polling day. Lift laads, FFS!

    As we head into Round 8, itā€™s clear: the campaign is just heating up. Will bergholt hold on to his slim majority, or will there be a dramatic swing back to the field? Stay tuned for more democracy manifest.

    The LeaderBoard has been updated, and you can to head to threadmarks to go straight there.

    ROUND 8 - REVIEW
    • STREAKER ROUND 8 - A NEW ORDER ARISES

    As the galaxy commemorated May the 4th, a disturbance in the tipping Force was felt across the competition. The Round 8 results are in, and a new triumvirate of power has formed at the top of the leader board.

    Leading the Jedi Council are Master dct66, Commander PoppedCorn, and Chancellor bergholt, each sitting on 9 points. Once these courageous allies existed in obscurity but are now united and glorious at the STREAK summit.

    Their control of the leader board is strong, but not unchallenged. From the Outer Rim, BrutThough and Squirtles (8 points each) are rising fast, amassing tipping streaks worthy of spin-off trilogies.

    And further down the rankings, the mid-table remains densely packed, a battleground of clone war proportions. But underneath the cacophony of those middle wars a dark energy ripples. Far from the light of accuracy and participation, marcus1232 remains scoreless and silent. Some say heā€™s inactive. Others believe the truth is more sinister, that he is a Sith Lord in disguise, biding his time.

    Rumour has it he may be assembling a Battle Cruiser of Doom, fitted with a STREAK threatening weapon...a perfect round, to be deployed late, violating the universal spirit of punctual tipping and designed to obliterate the leader board in one terrifying strike. His plan? To arrive unannounced, tip flawlessly in the shadows, and send the current leaders into disarray! A Streaking Death Star, if you will.

    The leaders must remain vigilant. For while Round 9 approaches with promise...the Empire may yet strike back. The balance of tipping power hangs in the balance. Will the leaders maintain control of the tipping Republic? Or will a new hope emerge from the middle universe?

    All will soon be revealed in the full course of time the fixture. Until then, go well and may the streak be with you.

    • ROUND 9 - REVIEW
    • Round 9 Review : Bad Calls are Not Just The Domain of Umpires

    Streaks are wobbling, confidence is rattled, and trust in the tipping process is at an all-time low.

    The people want answers. The leaderboard wants clarity. And somewhere, Squirtlesā€™ tipping alarm clock needs winding.

    Similar to the firestorm in the AFL over the quality of it's umpiring, our STREAK contestants have come under enormous scrutiny for the ineptitude around their decision-making. Round 9 was littered with inconsistency, confusion, and a few decisions that left tipsters staring blankly at The Fixture, and asking themselves why?

    bergholt was the strongest performer for the round with a mighty score of <shakes head> 3? Yes, that's right our best streak tipper stumbled through the screen door with a paltry 3 and now sits alone on top spot with 12 points. While he is to be congratulated, he clearly needs a bath to wash out the stench after tipping the Blues.

    While there have been some calls to stop the game due to what looks like a mass concussion in the chase group, the game goes on! dct66 and PoppedCorn both stumbled slightly with 1 point rounds but remain in the hunt on 10 points, and well within striking range should The Fixture finally show them mercy.

    Squirtles, sitting equal-second last round, failed to lodge tips at all, and fans are calling for a full internal review and stronger accountability measures. Was it a protest? A system error? Or just a calendar malfunction? Fear not, Laura Kane is investigating and nothing will get swept under the carpet!

    In other news, BrutThough, last seen charging into contention, has spectacularly collapsed - delivering a round score of zero. Analysts are somehow trying to liken it to the Kysaiah Pickett trip non-call.

    The middle bracket is now gridlocked at 7 points, where CursingFijian, Saint Watto, and DougalHoward continue their steady campaigns amid the carnage.

    Further down, Ross the Boss has sent dudeintheswamp back to the reserves for extra training after two weeks of feasting on donuts.

    Meanwhile marcus1232 finally entered the race with a single point and we are pleased to stamp his STREAK citizenship and welcome him into the fold. After 3 weeks of non-tipping he remains only 11 points of the pace! One perfect round and...yeah, nah...just get your tips in on time mate!

    • ROUND 10 - REVIEW
    • Round 10 Review : Saints Drop the Ball, Streakers Pick It Up

    While St Kilda blew a golden chance to bank 4 premiership points against a side thatā€™s been impersonating traffic cones all season, more than a few in the STREAK competition soared where the Saints flopped and nabbed four points of their own.

    Sully111, BrutThough, jumperfan, bakes10 and Saintos The ITK all pocketed the 4 points this week to retain some semblance of dignity. We salute them!

    dct66 and PoppedCorn both nabbed a respectable 3 points to soar, like an Eagle, and perch at the top of the table replacing bergholt who gambled all his aspirations on the wrong big birds, the Hawks.

    Sully111 and Saint Watto, remain in striking range on 11 and 10 respectively, quietly stacking wins while Ross The Boss stacks up excuses.

    A little further down the ladder marcus1232 scored a very respectable treble to put himself in prime position for a full on assault on the bottom of the table. Mind your toes!

    Meanwhile, Yawkey Way, sammm, Squirtles have gone in to a ā€œrebuilding phaseā€ of the competition. Give them a priority pick. Or a hug. In fact we could all use one.
