Yeah, looks suspicious, doesn't it Chuck?

I think Sirpent just didn't want to step on Duritz's toes by working out the win part.

Interesting figures there. No surprise to me that I have the lowest ave place div. Too many damn short priced favs.

LOL sorry I have been so slack - there have been very good reasons that I haven't been able to do the results yet though. Am tallying them now, will have them shortly.

(PS - am modyfiying the spreadsheet too, it'll kiss ********!)

Oops, that was meant to say it'll KICK ********, not KISS ********....

So, I won't bother putting the table up here b/c it looks silly, I'll just post the results as an excel file below. There are four worksheets in the excel file. Here's an explanation of each:

Ranked - Is the total of the two weeks, sorted into order of best to last.
Totals - the totals, unranked
This week - fairly self explanatory
Last week - yep.

We had some better tipping this week, and two people have kind of kicked away!! We only had the one blowout this week (ie no winners tipped). Also, people tended to reach out a bit further into the country to find winners, with people tipping in - and getting winners in - the Gold Coast, Camperdown, Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide, Perth and Hawksbury. I was the only fool to tip one in Toowoomba, which ran second. I also got the shortest priced winner for the week, $1.10 on Supertab, courtesy of a dead heating Amber's Halo.

I'd like thoughts from everyone - I am considering extending the comp to include midweek. Essentially, if you want to put in some tips during the week (any day at all) you just post them and they count to your score. The only day people would be compelled to tip would be Saturday, the other days being bonus days should you wish to utilise them. Of course, it could blow up in your face, too, if you tip heaps of losers.

What do we think?

I was wondering about that.

Hey Sportz, I just added more to my earlier post, read what I wrote and tell me what you think if you have time?

Thanks.

Yeah, I guess so, but that could possibly give the people who can't tip midweek a disadvantage??? Then again, we're basing this on profit/loss instead of money won aren't we? So, it should be okay.

Well, if it is okay i'm going to be the first to do some midweek bets:

Moe:
7-5 Kildonan Road

Quanbeyan:
7-1 Peaks:

Tamworth
3-4 Lady Toy

Yeah that would be OK. The rules as you just stipulated would be OK too. Is it too late really for April or can we just implement it right away, or starting next week (which would give all contributors a chance to see the changes this weekend). What do you think?

Ahh sorry guys. I deleted my post. I thought maybe Duritz would think that my idea was too much trouble.

Well, seeing as you seem to think it's okay, here's my idea again:

Everyone to have a minimum of 5 bets and a maximum of 15 bets each week.
You can have any or all of these bets on any day of the week.
You can give tips on any Australian TAB meeting.
Scores to be tallied up at the end of each week.
