I Never Played in Last One of These, I gather there were issues, & looks like they not been fully addressed in this structure!
A Suggestion to Sky & This Thread!!
To Avoid the Accusations, Recriminations, that may surface, Why Dont Sky Just.....
...ADD an EXTRA KNOCK-Out Round The Tuesday 5th August, so enabling 32 Qualifiers, [64 would ease pressure more, but prob too many to organise], to play in First Round Knock-outs!!!!
Thus anybody who has bent Rules, Slightly Or alot, [For who can tell in truth ], will be forced to pit their HU skillz against another Qualifier before The Round of 16!!
So Then any 'False' results from Qualifying, should be found out in next Couple of Knockout rounds.
This Would Hopefully put STOP to any Nonsense or possibilty of those who may be dissapointed by not Qualifying, thinking, well ifs 'he/she's' done it, I may slip a few in!! Ya get tha picture!!
Its a shame this promo is getting tainted by a few players. Its the first promo in a long long time i have been able to be part of as it is achievable for a 100% recreational player. Currently hopefully in about 7th or 8th place as and when it may get updated on Thursday.
Hope the bad eggs get flushed away before the last 16 comp takes place and the honest players get thro.

+1 Alfie!!
As a Rec Player myself, it is nearly impossible to take part in Many of these Promos Sky put on for Us!! In This instance, 50 Games should be easy, Maybe 100 games I could achieve, not more!
Those Older League Table promos were way beyond Most Rec Players ability to make the game times.
Yeah just noticed that, should 100% be excluded from the site imo. What will happen if 16th is 68% and their are a few players on that amount will their be a playoff of some kind?
Agree with above as well really good promo of which most players can have a shot, plus with the sample of 50 games it's definitely feasible to heater into the final 16 without having much experience of HU. Shouldn't be tainted by the odd cheater.
We do have checks and systems to veryify such results and naturally we cant go into the detail of how this works. However we would say two things...
1) It's fair to say that the top 16 will be looked at even more closely. If and when anyone gets disqualified then, for example, the 17th person would be 'promoted'.
2) Even despite the checks and systems we referred to above. We do appreciate assistance on this. We dont wan't those suspicions putting on the forum cleary. However, if you do have any evidence to support your views, do please PM us an we will look into it. PMs mean we can keep this between ourselves.

Putting aside our issues.....this just isn't feasible in the slightest. Can't move the goal posts a matter of days before the promo ends.
Completely unfair on someone who has earned a spot in the top 16, and thus a cash payout, to then have to play a HU game before that to get to said winnings.
All Sky need to do/be is extra vigilant in this kind of competition. Or not run another one again if it's proving too difficult to oversee.

Fair Points!! I Agree!!

Agree can't change things at this stage.
But a rule needs to be clarified. What will happen if say 16th and 17th (or more) have the same ROI? Would it be based on games played? We need to know before/if it happens
hey boxster it states in the terms and conditions 11. If there is a tie for the 16th spot then the order will be decided by the total amount of Sit and Go’s played throughout the promotion. that answers your question buddy Posted by liamboi11
Surely its not beyond the realms of possibility that 16th will be tied with both having played exactly 50 games?

no idea how they work it if theres a tie with same amount played.
Comments
the cut off for the last 16 will be over 70%, however...
the cut off for the top 19 is more relevant as 3 people will be exposed and disqualified.
if Jon will allow me to post......lol!

This was refreshingly available to Us!!
The blatent cheat has been removed from the leaderboard.
It'll be interesting to see if any action is taken against the well known player against whom he had his 32/32 winning streak in £5.25 games lol.
