Next Saturday we have our first Group1 race for the long Autumn season. There were a few of us interested in a competition last Spring, so let's do it again.
This year I won't take on as big a load as back in the Spring.
I'll run it as follows.
(1) Competition starts Saturday February 8; concludes Saturday April 18.
(2) Each week-end, I will nominate five races, all Black-type. Races will be on this site on the preceding Wednesday or Thursday.
(3) Each selection will carry a hypothetical NSW TAB $10 each way bet. Scratchings or omitted races will be credited with $20.
(4) Competitors must make at least one selection a week to be in the race for points that week.
(5) The top 5 competitors each weekend will gain points: 5/4/3/2/1
(6) Points will accumulate each week,
At present there are no prizes - just bragging rights - but any offer of prizes would be gratefully received.

"Scratchings or omitted races will be credited with $20."
Are you sure?
Does that mean those who don't tip will be credited with $20?
-
Refunded?

I wanted to allow contestants to be able to decide not to make a selection in a given race if that was what they wanted. To be in the running for the points for the day, they would have to make a selection in at least one of the five races. I will add that condition to the list.

Frankly I don't think it is in the spirit of the comp to be selective and not tip in each race.
If I was to do that this week I'd select R4 No 7 Rulership and leave it at that.
I probably won't be available for last few weeks but I'll see how that practice goes and whether that would do me better than my effort at tipping in each race. :/

Yes, SW. I worked on the names rather than the numbers when there was a disconnect. Perhaps I should add that to the groundrules.

Mate it makes no difference to the points but I did substitute Fierce Impact in for the scratching in the Chipping Norton and he placed 3rd.

Amended now.
Sorry, I missed your substitution; I had already entered your selections into my spread sheet. Nevertheless I should have noted that Danzdanzdance was a scratching and so you would not have lost the $20 bet (JWH's quite arguable beef about the rules I've put in place). That, of course would have meant that you should have been credited with a total outcome of $20,which, by coincidence, is exactly what Fierce Impact paid! :biggrin:

(JWH's quite arguable beef
Les me say that my "arguable beef" or 'helpful suggestion" wasn't about scratchings.
More about not making 5 selections and getting the $20 per non-selection.
But it's your party...…. :biggrin:

Yes, it does. I was unaware of the late scratchings today. I see now that there were quite a few, including Rock. I will amend today's results.probably.but not certainly, before I go off to bed

I move that we disallow Wily being credited with any returns from Regal Power.
Just read the Pikes Files and various other posts over the years to find out why.
-
Fair point but you’ll notice that my suffering at the hands of Pikey is because I back his mounts.
The great Regal Power is from the same family of a mare I own. Admittedly a far way back but I am loyal and the horse can overcome most things, I suspect :beer:

So this week you have S-Tab returns not NSW tab?

So this week you have S-Tab returns not NSW tab?
I must admit I find difficult to tie down the TAB dividends. For the first few weeks I was scrabbling around trying to copy down the TABNSW dividends appearing on the TV screen. That got messy if and when I was called on to share in chores around the house. So I went looking on the WEB for TAB dividends and found what I thought was the NSWTAB site. It's labelled www.tab.com.au. Probably I should have gone to the Racenet site that I was using to check my selections in the weekday competition (but that one led me into a wrong conclusion during the past week :tears:)
Perhaps I should again make an attempt to locate the NSWTAB site (perhaps one of you may be able to help with that). Then I could check out all the dividends over the seven weeks. I've got no problem in doing that, as long as I can locate the appropriate site.

You need to ask or have someone who is local. I am geo blocked on many tab sites.

And , on opening it I find that is exactly the site with its dividends that I used today, However Special Week noted that [I was using S-tab and not NSW Tab,
To say I am confused is an understatement.

www.tab.com.au is the right site. Click on MENU, scroll down to bottom left hand side and you will see a small green box. Click on this and you get the option of NSW; Vic and ACT. If you wish to have say NSW and Vic open at the same time you need to open one of them in a different browser. ie Firefox; Opera; chrome or Microsoft edge.

Westie, you are a gem mate :biggrin:
I was beginning to think I was in some other Universe to the rest of you, well to SW and JWH. They were telling me to go to tab.com.au and I knew I was already there and I was seeing different figures to them. And then you sent me very useful advice, Except that my box was blue, not green, because as I soon saw I was in Victoria, not NSW. All is now crystal clear. I will amend yesterday's figures a little later this morning, The changes are minor but do not affect yesterday's points.
Again, thanks. I am so relieved to be on the same page, literally, as everyone else.

Thanks Brian for doing this. Good comp. It gives everyone a chance to bounce back even if they have a bad week or two.
I maybe leading at the moment but I doubt I will be there at the end with so many people clustered around the lead.

Some stats on the selections to date
Notes
(1) These tables are NOT about what wins or loses the Competition. There is only ONE competition, based on the weekly points. However it is interesting to see how the cookies would have crumbled if the competition had been otherwise structured.
(2) I've done a fair bit of delving through my rough records to get these numbers. I may well have made some errors but the table is only indicative so don't bother to let me know unless the error(s) is/are pretty bad.

The comp has been running for 9 weeks with $100 "betting" money being "given" to each competitor each week: $900 in all. No one has broken even; Special Week is as near as damn it, but even he hasn't quite made it!
