I managed to mismanage my time tonight.
My thoughts all day were on DT. How can I fix my team? What is the best move?
The time comes to 7:45 and I finally make up my mind.
"Thank God," I think, "now I can relax!"
The siren goes, then the bounce, then I remember...
"flower! flower! flower! I forgot to put in my tips!"
Too late now. Carlton is the away team. One tip down. :(
Anyone else ever have times like these with DT?
Don't count on it yet LH! Nobody wants Collingwood to win again :P. Even if it is to Carlton :P.
I did trades at like 5 this evening as no time yesterday.
I always forget to do my tips till Saturday. Worked ok last week with the draw on friday night ;)
What's worse is the decisions I spent all this time making were to get Liberatore over Curnow and Tapscott over Dawes. FMDT
Haha yes I have done this before. In fact, on a few occasions I had the trade ready and I was just confirming it was the right trade then I got distracted posting on here and before you know it, it was lockout and I missed doing my trades!

Same. Basically I normally forget R1, then set them for the next week on the Saturday or Sunday.

LOL I did the exact same thing. and I said to myself stuff the tips. To many other things to. I'd rather do well on DT/SC and contribute to this site that worry about tipping.
PS. We all know I would have tipped the Pies.
got my tips in AND picked the 28 point margin i might add :)

Congrats mate!
totally lost interest in tipping once i got hooked on DT last year...
I tip that I will not worry about tips anymore.
But only we can afford to not worry MissPiesFF being Collingwood supporters! 8)
Yeah I sorta gave up on tips because last year I found it too hard to barrack for a team and my SC players. EG if Saints were playing Freo I wanted Saints to win but Pavlich to kick a bag :P
I find that same problem when I've bet on a game. Like last week, I bet on Melbourne (God knows why) and still wanted Buddy to kick a bag. Ended up getting the raw end with both.

Well when money is involved it's a lot more serious!
I've got $10 on the Tigers tonight. Don't know why I keep betting against the Hawks. I just feel they're one of those teams that has the ability to lose as the favourites. And I think the Tiges have been playing pretty well so far.
Well to draw with Saints without J.Roo says something (about both teams :P)
Ouch...Looks like you got it wrong again :-\
Buddy kicked a bag though.
Was at the game. Hawks deserved to win but not by as much as they did. Umpires were just awful!
So, after getting stuck with Carlton because I didn't get my tips in before the first game, guess what I tipped...?
Could've had a perfect 8. DAMN IT!

Ouch :(
My mum stuffed up my tips so for her work one i got 7 :(
But i got 8 in my other two comps.
i was out for a work luncheon last friday, turned into a few beers etc then i looked at my watch and it was 7.30.
gave me enough time to look at the final teams, log onto SC and trade everitt for enright and foley for libba with only seconds to spare. now wishing i had have missed the deadline
