Sort:  

if I vote on comments where the parent post uses a tribe tag, do I give tribe votes as well as steem votes ( assuming I have staked my tribe tokens)?

what would be good in a sports tracker? some sort of knock out template?

Depends.

If they use the first tag in the Post as a tribe then yes. I've used 'tribes' so a vote here wont cost you any other VP, unless: #steemleo #stem - has this added the tags to my comments metadata?

You could recycle this? :D http://www.aussportsbetting.com/tools/betting-tracker-excel-worksheet/

oh, I could recycle that, I have found a few others too :-)
