The Sky premiership promotions flaw

DoublemeDoubleme Member Posts: 2,050
I understand that, the league takes time to update and I get that is a thing of sky but its a new week now fpor the promo and I am looking at changing leagues. So I cant really play yet as the league update isnt out and not been paid yet. hence if I switch leagues now I could lose all my points for prior week and the prize money from that.

I effectively face not even making enough points for the Major free roll tonight. As I do not feel I can play until I can change league and I can't change league until prize is confirmed and paid for the prior week.

    Ok edit I can register the free roll but like I cant really do anything else until then. I guess I do for my mid day coffee walk and come back for to start when the free rolls start hopefully it all good then.

    The league runs from Friday midnight so you should be able to switch

    Yeah you can just switch as it ran to midnight, if they mess it up when they do final standings just message and they can look at what league you were in and what points you had up to midnight before you switched. I've switched and played today wouldn't worry about it

    thanks for the confirmation guys,

    I just do not like to grind all week and then wipe things out. I hate talking to customer service I could say why but I think that may be against the rules of the forums not sure.

    its difficult to know what the exact best league is to pick. Next week will be my main week for this promo so it important to pick the best league for that. I am trying a different league again to get an idea of what the best league to pick is. Ultimately it depends who picks what other leagues but not sure if can trust people to tell others that.

    for myself I am entering league one this week to gage an idea on whether I should choose league 1 league 2 or championship for the main week.

    You can switch at any time on the 1st day of a new week. It won't affect the leaderboard if it hasn't been published yet.

    thankyou for your reply so to check this then I will be playing on Thursday 17th august and it is possible I may be playing beyond midnight. on this date.

    so If I am in league one and directly after midnight when the date becomes 18th august for the following week I immediately opted for league 2 this would not delete my points for week 2 of the week (11th august-17th august)

    your welcome if you can outpace me on points then I am irrelevant to you, if you cannot keep up with me then I am irrelevant to you as well.

    The only point in which this becomes relevant to you is if you believe we are likely to be competitive on racing each other in which case you may be motivated to choose a different league to me which would be in my interest for you to do so.

    Unless you know for a fact you can outpace me and instead of been motivated by your own profit you are motivated to try and hurt my profit specifically. I am not paranoid enough to assume that been a motive of yourself and if it was I am not fussed about costing you money, as you would make less then you otherwise could have doing that if that was the situation.
