A table that flatters to deceive, the majority of winners being stayaways on the LRF!
However, we do have a sooper top nap from barstool, Alpha Tauri at 8/1. That's his fourth winner of the month and comes just a couple of days after his 6/1 strike. Fantabuloso!
Mind you, it only nudges the four-legged (or is it three?) napster up a place to second because he was already in a strong position. Well, he's in a much stronger one now, less than a squid behind our silent leader.
His move meant that an odds-on winner from SirRembrandt, so cruelly defamed yesterday, wasn't enough to stop him from slipping one.
The other notable score - the only other non-LRF - came from youresomean, with his second of the month, at 9/2, to catapult 13 places up to seventh.
But for the LRF he would have been even higher!
Still, a very good overall show for the thread. Best of luck Wednesday!

(Already had the 6/1 on 365. I will be amazed if it goes off that big).
Good luck.

When did this rule start and why? I was on here about 3 years ago and can't remember it. Devalued the competition somewhat.

Mafia , Deko and Souldancer yes I have been against this since it's arrival but we have got to respect the life of the settlers and if it makes their life easier unless we can come up with something else we have to just get on with it.
They ain't a lot wrong with the rule I just think 10 days in a single Month is a lot of "Paid Leave"
With me being a quiet chap I don't often mention it (sh"" scared of Reg)

petemac,
yes fair enough, we all know the rules. Just can't remember it being like this before. If it's easier for settlers that's good, they work hard enough.

Its still a simple solution to a situation that was getting more and more out of control, with ever more complex instructions. Some of the instructions had to be seen to be believed.
Its now simple, and above all much easier for the settlers who put a lot of time and effort in on our behalf.

ok JRAS but why 10 days?
take away our 4 rest days and it is nearly half the bloody month.

10 days effectively covers 2 weeks holiday, which is I guess the average
Show me someone who has 12 holidays a year and I will show my ar"" in boots window.
Anyway Reg, I did not know you were in I better be off now.

This discussion always arises when a good price LRF wins or LRF run up a sequence of wins.
But I don't think anyone could budge you with a crow bar on this ruling Reg so I bid you fare thee well.

actually I've no problem with abandoning it - its not my rule, its a comp rule pete. It was originally the instructions rule which I am guessing has existed since the comp began. I am only wary of changing a not unreasonable rule and therefore the underlying nature of the comp itself and its traditions. The law of unintended consequences is always at the back if my mind.
I wasn't here long when the instructions ruling was in but I do remember that being farcical and a right pi** on for you settlers and I am not against the LRF ruling just the very generous 10 days on offer.

An interesting debate, as I was on the LRF yesterday and benefited from the 4-1. I had a busy day and couldn’t post. That said, I sympathise with the comments and have given a bit of thought to this so I offer this as an addition to the discussion and I don’t have an axe to grind over it. I just enjoy the competition.
Considerations are that:
People Work
People are retired
People have holidays
Settlers have lives
It seems to me that 10 days LRF is generous in Div 3. However , in higher divisions, people have earned the right to be there and they have life pressures which can sometimes make it hard to post.
The balance is for the settlers as the more complicated we make it, the harder it is for them. Without them we don’t have a competition and we are very grateful.
We could adopt the 5 consecutive days of LRF which are pre booked and allowed once or twice in a month if you are on holiday. Single days of non posting will result in a lost result (i.e -1 point).
Sometimes when you can’t post because of life pressures there has to be a penalty to be fair to all. The incentive has to be to post.
For Div 3, it’s easy to opt out for a month if you are on an extended holiday but higher divisions need some flexibility. It’s unlikely I will ever need this flexibility so offer this up for discussion.

When did this rule start and why?
Souly
I refer my learned jigging friend to its 8am post
I am always in a happy mood
Reading posts makes me so
I never mentioned names

Interesting ideas ATK
But where does it end ?
1 fitz all rule makes for continuity
The luckydipness of a decent Lrf winner brings it to the boil now & then
No one says a word when it hits a losing run

Many Thanks for comment Madhatters.
My suggestion would apply to all divisions to create some flexibility for higher divisions.
The overriding principle should be : The incentive has to be to post.
The settlers will decide if it is workable and I rest my case. No issues either way.
Here's to a winner tomorrow.

Didn`t see the debate. We`ve looked at this area many times and decided to simplify instructions. Obviously it causes a stir when the lrf wins at 4/1. The only solution I can come up with is capping the price at say 2/1. So if lrf wins at 8/11 that`s what you get, 6/4 13/8 and so on. If it`s higher than 2/1 then that`s all you get credited.
I would like to see,
No post = 1 point deducted!

JRAS,
thanks for explaining why rule was brought in, that's all I wanted to know.
madhatters,
thanks for nothing.
