OK, many of us in the red are very upset and it wasn't our fault. We are victims of a bad handicapping environment and unfortunate circumstances. THEREFORE before we have a total collapse in the HK I have decided to borrow as many positive points as needed from those leading the contest as well as from future contests to be paid later in order to bring the negative scores (ie me) up to even. Jabberwocky's mandatory -3 will also be funded by this move. Woodson however will have to work off his penalty through community service or something as this is his 12th offense. This is the only way to save the contest I'm afraid.:(

I am particularly grateful for the generosity of this week's +4's : SixFive, Morris, WayneWonder, BabyJohnson and BobbyBlueBalls. Thank you for placing the greater good above your own wealth.:toast:

Ripken currently leads due to best record. This may be a very important rule by season's end. I assume that everybody read the full rules ahead of time so that there will be no bitching in Dec and Jan, ...right.:)

Those red numbers are dominated by last year's core group. Oh how I long for those carefree days....:sadwave: This new generation of "achievers" and "handicappers" really blows.

There should be a separate prize for incumbents. Obviously, there was such an influx of applications that the screening process broke down and a lot of actual winners were let in.

:banghead:

I have to say, I am most disappointed with ripken. He was the first new member, and was only let in after touting his poor performance again and again.

It's hard to bicker with someone who is so far down in the standings. It's almost like I didn't even notice you were here.

Poor woody...
