LOL yes sorry you did have that.... I don't know how I managed to stuff up not just one of your winners, but two!

Here's the NEW table, with testarossa rightly on top of it, and a link to it as an excel spreadsheet below.

Sorry, it's my first day...

Am still trying to work out the way of working out the leader in this comp, too. Should it be worked out on $$ won or on %POT? Whilst purists who mustn't punt would say the better judge is he/she with the higher %POT, it's $$ in your pocket that count, and it is harder to maintain a high %POT with more selections, so I am thinking why penalise those who don't wimp out by tipping only one pick? Therefore, I am thinking overall $$ profit is the best way to gauge it.

Other thoughts on the matter?

5 times winnings + POT for that week?

Top 5 scores would be as follows:

testarossa 86.5
Duritz 63.5
Sportz 59
Chuck 43
Goldcoaster 39.5


just a thought?

hmmm...having second thoughts. Perhaps it creates too much of a gap?

BTW i am rather enjoying this good old chat with myself!

Yeah I think that might be unnecessarily complicating things. Really, dollars won is most important. It's not most important if everyone's having different amounts on, but when we're all just having $1 on each selection, then it's the MOULA in the POCKET which counts!

Example:

Person A has had 100 bets, 20 winners, collect 120, for a lovely 20 unit profit.

Person B has had only 10 bets, for 2 winners, collect 13, for a 3 unit profit.

In my book, person A has gone better, however if we used %POT then Person B has gone better, even though person B's profit is very small and able to be eroded with just a couple of losers, whereas Person A could have 20 losers in a row and still not be losing.

That's why I'll go with $$ profit as the criteria for the leaderboard.

OK all you can get your tips in whenever you like from now. As I stated I'll use overall $$ profit as the determination as to who's winning.

Best of luck!!

PS - I prob won't post the results this week until either late Sunday or early Monday.
