In Response to Re: Viva Las Vegas 2nd Chance Freeroll - TONIGHT at 7pm : Ahh, now we are getting somewhere, and yes, that may be the answer. I did notice that the Freeroll tonight only had (iirc) 188 runners, which struck me as odd as it should have been 98x2 = 196, I had not looked at the "tied scores" angle, and will do shortly (just about to have my dinner) but that looks the likely reason. Incidentally, the leaderboards are not constructed manually, it is all done automatically via software, working off "Business Objects" reports, so unless that has been incorrectly coded (& there have been no other omissions it complaints as far as I know), it's hard to grasp how it could have omitted a name in error.

I thought that was players placing in both the cash & sng leaderboards so could only be entered once.
7. In the event of a tie in positions second and below the dead heat rule will apply. All players with the same points will receive an equal share of the total amount of chips added together.* For example if players 2-6 all finish on 30 points they will all get an equal share of 66,000 chips for the Viva Las Vegas Freeroll, resulting in 13,200 chips each. This is worked out by the chip stacks from all the finishing positions being added together and divided by the number of players who qualify for that position. (E.g. 2nd to 6th tied: 20,000 + 15,000 + 12,000 + 10,000 + 9000.) *If there is a tie for the final position then all players tied will receive 2000 chips.

Looks like Splashies case may be strong if it was indeed a tie for 97th
In Response to Re: Viva Las Vegas 2nd Chance Freeroll - TONIGHT at 7pm : Thanks. In future I'm going to screenshot these things myself. Sorry to cause you extra work, chasing this up. You shouldn't have to do this. These things happen regular enough that it can't be down to human error each time, at least I hope not. I found a thread started by you that shows me 86th in cash league with 1 day to go. But I'm retry sure I finished joint 97th with 2k chips. Actually this might be where the error lies. Let's say there were 6 players tied 97th. Maybe the system only picked the top 100 players, whereas in fact it should be 102/3. My alias starts with an s so maybe that's how it missed me?

Morning.
The thread which showed the position on the FRIDAY, 2 days before it ended, is HERE
Until it is investigated by the Office, I've no way of knowing if you were still in the Top 100 at close of business on the Sunday.
The Jury remains out, & the result of the photo finish is still awaited.
Hi splashies. I sent this up to the Office to be looked at. They have replied this morning, & I'm afraid you did not qualify for the 2nd Chance Freeroll. So close, but no cigar. Next time, eh? Posted by Tikay10
Did they show you the final leaderboard? Or was it just, sorry no he's not on the list. I can't believe this leaderboard has disappeared off the face of the Earth.
I'm almost certain I came tied 97th. Until someone produces a copy of that final table then I won't let this go.

Can see on the 11th you were 65th with 15 LP, but I can't see a newer page

Hi splashies, no, they just told me you had not qualified, & I took them at their word, as always.
If you are not happy, please send an e-Mail to CC, & it will reach the Suits who will respond as appropriate.
Sorry I can't assist further, but I have done all I can.

We can see from my Forum Post on the 20th that he had slipped to 86th by the 18th, HERE
Anyway, there's no more we can do on the Forum now, splashies needs to write to CC, as per my earlier post. I've written to the Office & received a reply, & I'm not keen to trouble them again on Easter Sunday morning. I do hope it gets satisfactorily resolved. As far as I am aware, there have been no other complaints of this nature, so it's a little odd really. Posted by Tikay10
I've sent an email to priority so I'm sure they will sort it.
Just feel like I'm going round in circles so far with people saying I wasn't on the list of qualifiers. I know I wasn't on the list, I'm arguing that i should have been. Not one person has said they can see the final leaderboard and I finished in xx place.
I can't believe it's so hard for someone at Sky to access a final leaderboard that is less than a week old.
Thanks for trying though Tikay, I know you can only relay what has been said to you. But I'm telling you that i finished tied 97th.
