I echo Joly's post. While scoring I noticed a few late scratches which must make Digger's job harder. Nicely done Digger.

Guys it was challenging.

Thank you all for your appreciation of and making note of all the work it takes to get results correctly posted.

I had to refer back to the rules made a long time ago. Thanks to Don Guido he had this challenge covered by a simple rule of what track gives you in returns we get in our points too. I used my own logic too.

It played a big part in who got more points by the rule.

Good to see Don Guido win by his own rule.

Some of us had benefit by this rule too.

You're to kind Digger. It's not my rule at all, it's just a logical point in playing this contest. The basic rules were originally developed by Final Turn (her AKA) some time ago, forget her real name, and changed over the years with great input from many here with much more savy in the sport and wagering than I have. I've heard some points made this year, we may be due for nother update or two. No problem, and we can all join in those discussions after this contest year is over.
