Wasn't someone going to run a black sheep season- I think it was Hendyboy, anyway we've got lots of people running seasons.

You'd like to think that grown adults wouldn't need a specific rule to not discuss answers to a forum game, to be fair.

You'd also like to think that grown adults wouldn't partake in such a forum game, mind.

Just accept it Mike. It's just a game. No need to get worked up about it.

The rule should stay. If people end up talking about it in the box again then the game will end up a farce. I'm not even sure the rule needs to be clearer, common sense said that Mike hadn't cheated and should've been allowed the change. So long as its consistent I cant see an issue, leave it to the 'referees' discretion. The rule is to stop cheating/whatever you want to call it...which WAS ruining the game.

TCMs points should still stand as well IMO and id say the same for anyone. As above, the rule is to prevent cheating, Mike clearly didn't cheat.

Kinda feel bad that this wouldn't have even been an issue if some of us hadn't jokingly been 'annoyed' by it.

Whatever happens people are going to whinge about it, as the same few have whinged about everything this season. I didn't handle it well yesterday, but the mistake I made was allowing the edit in the first place. I've made my decision now - it's not changing

I agree - I don't think his points should be taken from him, he didn't cheat in anyway, and it was a genuine error on his part, it wasn't changing from for example Bejing to Tokyo, it was a completely different and wrong and a misinterpretation on Mike's part.

Also - I think Mike did well to be honest about it in the Box, he didn't discuss any answers, just stated that he'd cocked up.

It's very much up to Ciderhead - but I think his points should stand personally, and we were all only mucking around calling for Mike's points to be deducted.

Dont know what else has been whinged about this season Ciderhead and sad you think theres been a lot of whinging.

Have really enjoyed your season, some annoyingly tough questions but I'm actually getting better :lol: :D

Oh no, it's not a problem. Won't be running one of these fuckers again though that's for sure :lol: Didn't quite appreciate how much time and effort goes into it!

Fuck sake Dom. I go to all the effort of making a list and you do this to me.

So, SFL was 2nd on the list but he wants a little more time. So it's up to Mr Elmo's if he wants the next season then.

SUTTS, I would go next but I haven't prepared questions, being 3rd in the list would have given me time to come up with some ideas. You have some games all ready to go don't you?

Haha apologies mate.

My stores gone in to closing down today, so come Wednesday next week I'm either redundant or on a paid leave til they relocate me! The timing was poor to run a round with me having to sort a lot out!

I actually think the sensible option would be to have a triple threat match for the cup final with both Mike and Dave in it.

However, it's a bit of a lose-lose situation as you are never going to please everyone!
