Whoever Vinery paid to do the admin of that contest ... I hope they're either the worlds most honest person or people or just plain dumb beyond belief ... because they have the power to change things after the fact with 100% deniability.

Great point... right now I'm glad I only paid for 1 entry until they work out the kinks. Could be a fun contest but I'm skeptical at the moment for the reasons I stated before.

Maybe they took alway all my Bejarano points from yesterday as he got me 5 total points I highly doubt these small point changes will make or break me in the contest.
Hello,
Great observation. Yes, there is protection. Every result carries a time and new contestants will not get points if they sign up after this time. We experienced a case which made us aware of the scenario you described, but the point standings have been corrected.

Thanks for posting this and writing to them. I'm still skeptical of the points earned by the leaders to date. There's only been a few eligible horses to even race... as for Sightseek's point about referrals, the maximum per period is 250 points which still doesn't make up for the difference.
