No no I am not asking for points this time, just describing the effect on the game of giving zero points to last place - more effort goes into avoiding last than getting 1st or 2nd. |

It was cyan I offered with orange, not brown, and I offered a fat wodge of cash too. I also offered to take the sets and give you blacks if you paid me. But you wanted neither.
Sim had only 3 whites and was catchable, or it was worth a try, I felt. |

I don't want to argue, but with cyans and oranges versus 3 whites, yes you could have caught him you had th emoney tupgrade cyans straight away and oranges soon after with the money I was offering. Or you could (not probably, but could) have caught him with the 4 blacks.
Anyway, once you have finished rubbing your bronze medal in my face kindly be quiet. I am allergic to cheap metals. |

Only 14 players were actually in the tourny by my count.
14x5000=70,000
115,000-70,000=45000
45,000/5000=9
So, 9 players charged 5000 points when they very well could have been in the lobby at the right time - of the players who turned up at 1pm GMT, only CYN and me got to play in the tournament. |

Crabbs have you finished criticising every aspect of the tournament now?
I'd love to know if had you got any position above 4th, would you be moaning then? |

That was a very productive comment trace, thanks. Good to know you're not above kicking man when he's down.
Would you care to address the point I raise, or would you like to put my every thought down to sour grapes? The tournament had many big problems. We can iron them out, or just cover it up. |

right ill tell you exactly who was in the lobby.
Gentlemen
that is it who was in the lobby at time of both start times, i know that because i was there checking.
seeing as none of these players that were deduced 5k havent come here but you to complain , i put it down to sour grapes.
players know if they register and not play that they get deducted. so i presume theyve accepted it and moved on.............. have you ???
please leave this subject alone now crabbs. _________________

Yes Bill
I woke up 15 minutes after the tournament started, so I just accepted the 5k point deduction and went back to sleep.
I know magflag did the same as well. _________________ if seeing is believing, then believe that we have lost our eyes |

correction. I was working with my father at the time on a bonus room in the house that need sheetrocking. _________________ If you're in a war, instead of throwing a hand grenade at the enemy, throw one of those small pumpkins. Maybe it'll make everyone think how stupid war is, and while they are thinking, you can throw a real grenade at them. |

What I meant that you did as well, was that you accepted the point loss and moved on, not that you slept through it. _________________ if seeing is believing, then believe that we have lost our eyes |

Alteration has been made to points won by ingeras and gameman.
I have added 2500 to ingeras and 9000 to gameman.
Reason being there appears to have been a miscalculation made, but the error is now corrected.
In future I think we will have a second moderator just double check on the sums, as we are all human and errors can occur. |
