Did anyone else have trouble accessing this forum today??? I wasn't able to post my tips.

I'm not worried about myself because I don't think I could have won. However, a couple of the other tipsters who WERE in contention may have also been unable to post their tips.

Yeah that happenned to me too Sportznut - whenever i tried to get on it came up with "Unable to query db!"

Do you think that we should have another week of the comp? or give those that didn't punt their $50 back? [(or maybe we can give **all** the competitors their money back) you can see i didn't pick a winner]

Hmmm, not sure Chuck. We'll have to work something out.

Crash, what do you think?

i was pulling my hair out...lol...i would have had only 1 winner anyway...Grand Armee....i have tipped it at all of it's last couple of runs....you can see that in my posts ....would have had $10 on it....i think the best thing to do is forget today and have one more race day next week...i was sitting on +73 after the loss of $50 lastweek todays win would have put me on +86 so not a big gain.....lol...i was the only one cheering in my tab...i was going right off

pardon me 17th April 2004 10:32 PM

could not get on this site allday some tech hitch i think?

Sportz,

I had the same problems with this site, but not when I put my tips on.

For those in the running as winner of the comp.[ and just one lucky $10 bet could make anybody a winner ], this problem is a hard one and has +/- written all over it.

Some parties were obviously advantaged and others disadvantaged from a site glitch, but I can see no way to fairly resolve the issue.

Small consolation, but those who haven't claimed the one week $50 grace money, won't loose $50 for not posting their tips.

Like most races, any comp. has it's unlucky barrier draws and other tough luck situations etc., so I think results should stand.

Win some, Loose some might be the sensible approach [ ? ].

Cheers.

forgot to put my tips in here, but i did my own post "chick. s/d, no ice", so if you would be so kind as to use those tips in the comp, would be great, seeing as i picked 2 out of 3 winners!!

Yeh same boat as sportznut :lol:

Howdy critters,

Any claimers as winner [put in a claim as contender if you think you are in the ball park and it will be sorted out] or do we still have 1 week left ?

I managed to stay in the black and I am happy with that.

A lot more punters stuck it out to the end this comp. Well done and overall a high standard of selection ability during a tough carnival.

Roll on Spring !!!

Cheers.

Crash, Our Fabio paid $3.10 on Unitab, so an extra $3 for you. Anyway, I've done a bit of working out and I think the final leaderboard is something like this:

Puntz +$103.50
Pardon Me +$90.50
Shaun +$73.00
Crash +$40.00

I may have missed someone, so if you reckon you've done better, please tell us.
