ok - seems as though you want to play :smile:
here are the "official rules "
1. the contest will start on Tuesday, when we have the biggest racing day of the year - seems appropriate.
2.on Monday afternoon I will post a thread entitled "Survivor contest - day 1 thread"
and those wishing to make a selection must do so in that thread by noon on Tuesday or at least one hour before your first selected race starts - whichever is earlier.
3.you get two selections, a win selection and a place selection - which may be different.
please make your selections clearly without using nicknames and abbreviations and in this form...
Win selection - CRANBOURNE Races -race 1 - number 1 - Big Head
Place selection - GEELONG Trots - race 1 - number 1 - Slow Coach
4. you can make your selection on any race, trots or greyhound meeting that is covered by the NSW TAB.
5. if your selection fails, you lose and you are out. The purpose of this contest is to see who can put together the longest win and/or place streak.
6. if your selection is scratched you go through to the next day, but you are not recorded with a correct selection as far as the run is concerned.
7. if there is no place pool for your race, then you go through to the next day but you are not recorded with a correct selection.
8. if your horse runs third and there is no third divvie, then you lose your place selection and you are out.
9. I will be keeping stats in regard to profitability etc for those interested. I will be using NSW TAB prices.
10.your win and place selections can be for different runners.
11. if you get a correct win or place selection then you are through to the next day in that category only. So if you lose your win selection but get your place selection correct then you are through to the next day and can make a place selection only.
12.if your selection is correct you are through to the next day - but you must make a selection the next day. If you dont make a selection you are out.
13. each competitor is allowed one "bye" day for you to use strategically when you want - that is, you may decline to make a selection on a particular day by declaring it is your bye, but you must post to the thread that it is your bye or you are considered to have had a losing selection.
You may not use your bye on day 1.
14. we will continue until the last man or woman wipes out.
all appeals must be accompanied by a carton of beer :smile:
only joking...
best of luck to all,
