    In Response to Re: Wednesday Triple Chance on Sky Poker? : Vince i think we should give him entry to the 1AM Night Owls Rebuy event for trying* *We have sent you the password to enter*
    Posted by hawk7112
    I'm not sure that is sufficient reward for such a magnificent achievement.
    I'd like to suggest that we award him entry to the Night Owls rebuy event for every night for the rest of the week.

    Easy solution - just pay out on the top ten in every MTT - that should sort it :-)

    Very well done to Darich for finishing at the head of the Table, & to all those who tried to stop him. I failed dismally......

    These "Forum fun comps" add so much to the evening imo, & would not be possible without Squawky & Mere, both of whom pretty much give up their entire evening to do them. WP both of them, & a big "thank you" from me.

    If Squawky & Geeky agree, we'll do something similar on Friday Evening, which is my PTP evening. It will need to include the 8pm Main, & the 8.30pm TOTTY, both of which are Rebuys, & if peeps want to suggest  third &/or fourth Tourney to add to the mix - a Freezeout(s) - then we'll have something for everyone.

    Another really great evening last night, loved every minute. Not too many Online Poker sites have a Community like this, it's awesome.

    I fully agree it's great that these guys give up time to run the tables. I simply asked why it is done in what seems a cockeyed way to find the ''best average''  My question seemed to lose it's humour somewhere along the line and I am probably responsible in part for that, and I apologise. As I tend to concentrate on the main event here and elsewhere, I really only enter the others to make up the numbers, I suppose it doesn't suit me entering into it.

    Still, as said, thanks to squawky and mere for their hard work.

    Thanks Alan.

    As we see time & time again, here & elsewhere, humour does not always translate very well to the written form, & as we don't have smileys here - a BIG problem imo - misunderstandings do arise from time to time.

    When we started running these fun evenings, Mere wrote to me & sought my advice for a number of different "scoring methods", & the struggle was to find one which was, shall we say, the least imperfect! He suggested several to me, advising me the inherent faults in each & I selected the one that seemed to best suit. So, if anyone is to blame, it's me.

    Having said that, it's just intended as a bit of knockabout fun, & I admit to being much saddened when I see arguments about it.

    O a personal note, I must tell you a very strange story which involves you. I'll need to send you a PM elsewhere to explain - it's quite weird.

    Hung, drawn and quartered should suffice......for now!

    (I have also got 'friends' in the Nottingham constabulary, who assure me that the last time Vince was arrested and strip searched.....the word 'well' was not used on the crime sheet.....more 'merely or barely' hung )

    If we use a quirky scoring system used by some bookies to spice up (i.e. randomize) some markets and award double points if you beat an even number of players, the best average of two events for players beaten would be:
