Daz will get those point awarded to him as common sence does prevail. The only time that players may miss out on points is usually in the 15 - 9 range when they are eliminated and dont either write their name down or tell the td that they got knocked out. I spent 10 minutes back tracking and chasing people down because of this situation tonight. Kind of have more important things to worry about at that stage of the game and to be honest next time may just bump 16th into the points.

fair enough, its peoples own fault if they dont write their name down.

but i think top 3 or so is different, the TD should know who they are by this stage.

1st - 'top 50' (worst name for it ever but there you go)
2nd - highest placing in the end of season top 5 at a venue (ie 1st at one venue and 3rd at another means you go through via your 1st placing)
3rd - If you happen to be 1st (for example) at two different venues then the venue you have accumulated the most points at is the one you go through on. Average does not apply.
4th - after all of these have been worked out players who didn't qualify outright may find themselves bumped up 1 or more places on a leaderboard which may actually qualify them. Lucky sods :P


I think what Pete said is correct

well, there was 40 runners, and he has been recorded for 10 points DNP.

so that means he gets an extra 40 points added for winning.

this puts him up into 5th on sundays at the willo

and if i am right, this 50 point one will drop a score of 18.8 off his top 15, giving him an extra 32 points, which would put him third on the regional leaderboard, around 10 points behind you AK

man i am bored

i need to end my form slump - its called season 2 and 3!!!!

for the last few weeks i have been playing a lot better, and finally got a bit of luck sunday and my hands held up. (except for KK on teh FT!!)

oh well, i am gonna need an average of 5th for the rest of the 3 weeks, and some people to get taken off the leaderboard for me to get to the finals.

i like the challenge


realistically though, the regional is gonna be my major tourney this season.
