In Response to Re: UKOPS XIII - Free to Enter Competition, with Prizey things. : funnily enough i was the winner ... but then double checking i found an eroor and i was no longer. Posted by aussie09
The way this has gone, I'm sure we have all been winners at some point!
tikay, is that the way of totalling, i.e the maximum of the guarantee or the sum paid out? Posted by aussie09
Hi Rob,
Yes, my belief is that it SHOULD be......
If the Guarantee is NOT met, then we use the Guarantee figure.
If the Guarantee is BEATEN, we use the upper figure.
In other words, "total prize pools". If a £2,000 Gtd Event only makes £1,500, then the prize pool, it seems to me, is £2,000, because that is what is paid out. Always. *
I still don't know Dakin, sorry, I'm setting it aside for today, as everything I do today is going wrong. I believe Rob is helping, & will arrive at the right answer this evening.
The Main Event winner will still get their seat this Thursday, the two "Tuesday" winners will get their Free Entry for NEXT Tuesday.
I dare not settle it tonight, in case I get it wrong again, & we end up with THREE sets of prizes.

Good work Captain.
We will let that sweat overnight, in case there are any objections, then finalise it tomorrow.
Congrats dakin, churchy & repton. Probably. T & C's apply.
