I'll record that as a scratching. Kournerov has $50 extra to bet with next week.

Probably on the Turps when he put his bets in. It's his 2nd. time around with the same rules. Well we all do it now and then :-)

No. You only get extra if you tipped a scratching.

Dontcha love the west

Sorry Sportz, I have to over-rule you there. Real deal gets 100 point [only] for a missed week. Anything else he had coming to him is forfeited. He could probably argue that point, but in the spirit of things if you miss a week you get the basic points only you missed [100units] nothing else. I'll make that much clearer next time.

"6. A missed Sat. carries over units to following Sat. as with scratchings."

Cheers and thanks for all the hard yards.

Huh??? You mean everyone that doesn't tip gets an extra $100 to bet with the following week??? Now, it's your comp, so you can do what you like, but that doesn't really seem fair on the people that do manage to tip each week. And it could also make things VERY confusing.

Rabbitz didn't tip in week 1. Does he get an extra $100 somewhere? Testarossa, Merriguy and mad all missed this week, so I guess they all have $200 to bet with next week? And what about luv2bet. He missed the first week and this week. See what I mean. Confusing.

145.0 . Testarossa
142.5 . Stix
130.0 . crash
105.0 . Heavyweight
105.0 . Merriguy
95.0 . Raw Instinct

I see your point Sportz. But they all have to put there hands up. If they let it go it's their problem. What can I do about a rule that is there for all to see? If I'm challenged on the point I'm stuffed. The rule is there !!!

Real Deal has read the rules [obviously] and is claiming his points for next week. Nothing confusing about it. It is up to the others to claim theirs the following week or forfeit them.The fact they haven't should not penalize Raw Deal who has claimed them. Basically everyone is entitled to 600 points for the 6 week comp. if they want them.

Things come up and punters miss a week through no fault of their own. That was the initial thrust of the rule. It is up to them to claim the points they missed [the following week obviously], not us to award them if unclaimed or penalize anyone who does claim them because others haven't claimed theirs.

See my point? Rules are rules.

''Testarossa, Merriguy and mad all missed this week'' They must put in a claim for them for next week [as it is the last]. Rabbitz misses out as it was in the first week and he never claimed them.

anyhow, I'm doing my best to be fair to all and abide by the rules. That's all I can do.

Well, I must admit I didn't see Rule 6, or perhaps I did and just forgot about it.

Well you have [obviously] read them now :-)
