I am only watching the Cameroon/Croatia game now, but what a couple of good games beforehand. <3 Netherlands/Aussie what an awesome game, Cahill's goal was epic! Stoked as the way the Netherlands came back and got it done also, nice to see it. Was kinda sad to see Spain wimper out like they did, but i have been expecting Chile to be quite good so it was nice to see them perform so well. Netherlands/Chile will be awesome, a very open game no doubt. I was thinking Chile could beat them before today's games but considering the way the Netherlands fought back i dunno, i didn't expect them to have to fight as hard as they did today obviously. Although they will miss Van Persie. What an awesome World Cup <3

I tried to stay up/get up especially for the first two but couldn't do it. Will definitely catch the highlights though. Crazy about Spain, guess they have to rethink that possession-based low-risk game they love, another loss after having like 65%+ possession.

Watching Spain/Chile right now
What are the chances Aussie can grab a draw or *gulp* a win against Spain? Spain has nothing to play for now

Haha yeh, well it would just be like all the teams picking up wins over Man Utd last season anyway I think they will just give the old dogs one last swansong and it'll be a great game. Spain should win. I tried to stay up/get up especially for the first two but couldn't do it. Will definitely catch the highlights though. Crazy about Spain, guess they have to rethink that possession-based low-risk game they love, another loss after having like 65%+ possession. Yeh they just get killed on the counter, they will rebuild for the next World Cup now surely. Red card for Cameroon guy, what a fool.

Haha I just saw what Benoit Assou-Ekotto did. Don't know what led up to it, but so bizarre.

Just saw it myself, seems like he didn't like being blamed for some shit by his defender buddy. So many headbutts lately. Shame it was such a shitty final game (mostly because of the red i guess) after a couple good ones, but can't win them all. Uruguay/England should be good

Uruguay/England is on at a bad time for me. Would rather have watched it live.

Meh predictable as fuck, at least i got paid. Rooney locks up his starting spot next week with a tap in. Fucking Rooney. I'm sure NZPWI will come back soon, but if anyone is worried about the World Cup tipping shit i have it all here. We could probably get hold of most people who aren't on here already if it comes to it before Group Stage 3. Japan not being able to score against 10 men pissed the shit out of me

Alright guys and gal. Post your picks in here, if you have previously posted them at the NZPWI forums just re-post them here also incase they really do never come back/take ages (but if you don't for some reason and you have already at NZPWI and they come back they will obviously count). We need to try and track down everyone who is in it. Snuz, Little_Jimmy, Hardcore_Legend, Ugmo, Shazza, Pedigree_Fan, MeLoCo, SwantonEdge, JustBRINGIT, Caleb, PrimeTimePlaya, And Andy Price, JR. Everyone who knows someone who hasn't found this place yet on this list should kindly guide them to the fake forums Obviously a lot of us are already registered here, which is cool. If the forums come back today/tonight i will post the picks of the people who have posted them here, for the record. Fuck you forums! Round of 16 (PICKS BY 23:59 JUNE 28) Match 49: Brazil vs Chile Match 50: Colombia vs Uruguay Match 51: Netherlands vs Mexico Match 52: Costa Rica vs Greece Match 53: France vs Nigeria Match 54: Germany vs Algeria Match 55: Argentina vs Switzerland Match 56: Belgium vs USA

Cool, well the forums surely should come back in a day or so at worst anyway, so that will be OK. As long as you know you have that's cool. If they don't come back you are doomed though. DOOMED! But they should

OK so all i have or know about is......
Me, Swanny, Petey, JBI and Jimmy. I assume JR and Shazza will pop some in here also.
So we need to let Snuz, Hardcore_Legend, Ugmo, Pedigree_Fan, Caleb, And Andy Price know. Anyone able to do this? I don't know them.
Maybe through the book of faces?

Yeh, well as i said i assume he would come on here anyway when he sees that NZPWI is down to make his picks.....but it can't hurt i guess.
It's more the ones who seemingly don't know about the Fake Forum. I dunno, how annoying.

Uhrg fucking forum going down and an inability to contact people is going to ruin the tipping.

Brazil started so well, really thought they would put a number on Chile.
Should be a good second half.
Lol @ Medal blowing up over Fred giving him a pat on the head as they walked off. He's such a little angry man.

Haha yah the break in between is annoying.
Really didn't want this to go to extra time I really need to sleep.
I want an upset, but at the same I would be shattered for Brazil.

I agree with you on all 3 points. Next game starts at 6am for me ugh
I'm gonna be cheering for upsets in every game, except France, but I'll be disappointed for Brazil if they don't even get close to the final. Surely the final has to be Argentina vs Brazil...
