No

AN OTHER is the average score for all tippers.....

So if you score 3 but the average is 4 then you lose.

I'm confused, it can't be the average... in the first 5 games of the season, AN Other scored 0 points EVERY week...

Mikey 3 v 0 AN Other
AN Other 0 v 3 Sammy
RossieGooner 3 v 0 AN Other
AN Other 0 v 5 Goonersid
Teecee 1 v 0 AN Other

If the 'average' rule was applied, AN Other would have won some of those first 5 games instead of losing.

Has the rule now changed to make it more difficult for the rest of us to beat AN Other and gain the bonus 3 points that initially was guaranteed? or is it some sort of error?

Sorry to be a pain... I'm just confused, mate :oops: :lol:

Lazy fuck, read the other 39 pages to find out why. :lol:

I'm sure I raised the same point a good few pages back, and I think Sammy changed the rules a bit not long after week 6 or 7 due to many people not tipping. Something like that anyway.

Plus I'm unbeaten in my league.

Stretching away at the top. So if this affects me adversely, you'll be getting some Harlow Gooner treatment. :twisted:
