World Cup Fever hits RateMyPlacement

Monday, 21st June 2010

So, it may be a busy time for us here at RateMyPlacement; planning for next years campaign, growing the team and developing the website to make it a whole lot easier for you all to use…but we are still only human AND, this means that World Cup fever has hit the office!

Manifesting itself through not the typical fever symptoms of a chill or severe sweating, but a change of pace with Spotify replaced by Live Match commentary, Vuvuzela’s and the parting of some (small time) cash with an office sweep stake.

The conditions of the draw; each person was drawn 4 team names and the prizes go to the person with the highest accumlative total points within their group, and of course the overall winner of the tournament.

10 days in, and Ali is leading the way with his collection of Ghana, Greece, New Zealand and Slovenia. Jo has lost one team with Cameroon not making it to the next round…and I can’t even remember what teams I was drawn,  great start :-)

But, overall Lizzie is topping the table with her team Argentina doing the best, with Gareth a close second with the Netherlands!

Watch this space for the next update…
