Today's question, then.
The Sky Poker Winter Giveaway today is for SNG players, & the top three points scorers get an IPad Mini.
The question is.....
How many points will the winner get?
We are going to close for entries at 8pm tonight.
Entries after 8pm will be void.
7 names will go through to Day 5.
Template entry;
2,000
I'll go for 1999.
Only 11 of the 13 eligible to enter submitted an entry, & 7 of those 11 will go through, (half of 13 + the odd one).
It all got a bit tactical yesterday, so for Day 5 I may have to come up with something to combat that.
These were the 11 entries;
IKelly, 1,475
Phantom66, 1966
FCHD, 1999
Buzka, 2,000
CxE1, 2,001
Stuarty17, 2,001
AJMilton, 2,001
POKERTREV, 2,015
FeelGroggy, 2,088

I don't know what time today - & it may not even be until tomorrow - that the points totals will be known, so we will postpone Day 5 until tomorrow.
If I do get to learn the numbers today, I'll post them immediately.
It's USUALLY used for Sporting competitions - football or NFL results, that sort of thing. Everyone chucks in £5, £10 or £20 or whatever, (just the first time, not again) & select a team that will win next Saturday or Sunday. If your team fails to win, you are out, & everyone else progresses to the next week. You can't select the same team twice, either, so it does get quite tactical. I'm down to the last 3 in an NFL Last Man Standing this week, & there is £400 to the winner. (I need The Patriots to win this weekend, oioi).
To be honest, I've messed this one up a bit, & Super Sam in the Office gave me some premiership grade mocking, but whatever, if you don't try, you never succeed, do you? It's high maintenance, too, needs a bit of work every day, but I don't mind that. If I do it again, I'll change a few things. I'm fine with "tactical" play though, that's part of the fun.
I'm just trying to find ways to increase interest in the Community, rev it up a bit, get the fun factor back in to this Forum, to balance the chuntering & negativity. Other poker sites don't have Forums, & there's a good reason for that - players often use it as a stick to bash the site up. There are some who have never made a single positive post. They'd be first to complain if Sky Poker closed the Forum though.
I was given responsibility a while back to look after this Forum, & try to freshen it up a bit, get a lighter mood & tone. So I'm giving it a bash.
I must say, the entrants in this one have played it in just the right spirit, & there has not been a single chunter. Must be a record.
The correct answer was 4109.
As I never got the results until late this afternoon, we will do "Day 5 Tomorrow, as it's a bit late now.
The 7 remaining players, the lasterest-longerests are.....
CxE1, 2,001
Stuarty17, 2,001
AJMilton, 2,001
POKERTREV, 2,015
FeelGroggy, 2,088

Commiserations to Buzka, who missed out by ONE, & FCHD, by just two.
Is that a human or a machine?
Good luck to all those still standing.
