thanks Jack


just throwing this out there - if there is someone else from the contest who still wants to go I am willing to give up my seat - just spoke to dunclock and I believe that he is still interested, not sure how this would be handled by Jack and remaining participants

have a conflict and if someone else really wants to go I am willing to provide the opportunity with my contest prize

The strategy of playing only 1 is that if you win, which he did, your opponent must go at least 2 games over .500 to win.

If you played 3, then you need to sweep to beat 1 unit, if you play 4 games you need to go 3-1 to beat 1 unit, 5 plays and you need to go 4-1, and so on.

[nickmdet]

nickm are you going to bring that chick in your avatar?

I wish! I only get those kind of girls with cash...up front:SIB

 

[MadJack]

1 - nickmdet +$180
2 - LA Burns +$100
3 - gmroz -$120
4 - dunclock -$230
5 - vicious -$240
6 - Clem D -$340

I believe these are the correct numbers for the final standings. Let me know if I made an error.

Here's the thing.

I did say no transfers in the rules. I stick to that and I am off the hook, period, and I don't have to feel bad about anything. The best records won, plain and simple.

Prior to the start of the contest, I spoke to woodson and he wasn't sure if he would be able to go. He told me he would just give his trip to gmroz if he happened to win. I told him that was okay.

But, I already had made the "no transfer" rule and after thinking about it overnight I told him that it wouldn't really be fair to everybody.

Then, I made it even more clear in the rules that there would be no transfers. He then told me to take him off the contest and I did.

Now we have a player that won and is willing to give up his seat, and he offered it. We have two, maybe more players, that would love to have that seat. What is the fairest thing to do?

Probably going by the standings is the fairest thing to do.

Any feedback here?

Please?

thanks

This is bothering me.

LA Burns won the trip. If I allow it to be transferred, he should be able to give his trip to whoever he wants to.

My ONLY stipulation, providing I get to allow the transfer, is that a madjacksports member be the one that gets the trip.

That's the reason for the rule in the first place.

Let's get this fairly worked out as soon as possible.

 

[MadJack]

2 choices so far, IMO.

1) go by the standings
2) Burns gives it to whoever he wants

Maybe I can get some sleep now.

Mango Habernero wings and too many beers :facepalm:

3) Burns gives it to the 3th place finisher and he takes the 4th place finisher

I went to sleep thinking LA Burns forfeited and the trip was mine if SF failed to cover. Now I feel like shit bc I know Andy wants to go every bit as bad as me and my wife.

Going by the standings is the best way to go with this. Although a great compromise would be for you to take Andy so you both can go. Maybe Nick will take your wife?

I guess Cyndy gets fuked but in a different way than dunclock was thinking.
