    TKP's official protest regards to event 3rd of August. 

    29th –     Swimming 4 x 100m Freestyle Relay
                   How deep can you run in the 19:00 £100 Guaranteed Freeroll? (4 representatives per team, medals awarded on cumulative scores)

    3rd –       Badminton, Mixed Doubles
                    One male and one female from each team fight it out in the 20:15 £3.30 mini open (Two representative per team one male and one female)

    9th –       Beach Volleyball
                    Teams of two take on the 14:00 £3.30 £50 Guaranteed (Two representatives per team, medals awarded on cumulative scores)

    No where for the third of August does it say cumulative score. Therefore best score has to be accepted in my opinion. Based on that logic 

    Gold goes to Mrs_Balti (Team Hitsquad A) - no protest for change

    Silver goes to Roguecell (Team KnightPoker) - Protest

    Bronze goes to Lee100 (Team51) - Protest

    I understand your point Don, unfortunately I'm just helping Simon out for a few days while he's away so he will have to confirm when he's back.  As you pointed out all other events with more than 1 player states that it's cumulative scoring.  I see no reason why last night would have been any different, this may have possibly been missed from the description.  These things happen as we're all aware.

    If I am wrong then I'll apologise and scoring will be amended, unfortunately that isn't going to be until Tues/Wed.

    There is no mention of representatives per team, but I'm sure we'll all assume it's one.  My example of how mistakes can easily be made!  Have a good weekend everyone.

    WP Clare!! Was fun!!
     Shame your partner got donked out again by same lil' hit-luckbox!!
    Great Fun, WP all who took part!!

    Thank You to Simon for setting up, & lisa for looking after, takes alot of time & effort!!
    Glad all accepted result gracefully!!
  • edited August 2012
    To address this issue seriously as a witness, as Simon & Lisa, voleentered & were delegated to suggest this to forum & run this for us all in a true forum spirit!!

    I can see that there may be a grey area now, but All I spoke too were aware that it would be a doubles cumulative score all along!!
    And if anyone had any doubts they should have addressed this before the start!

    On my table & in chat, this was asked at start & during tournie and it was explained that both scores count, which would have been witnessed by many,  including defo maxally & possibly Clare!!

    In fact rite throughtout tourney the banter was about the cumulative scores, until the very end, when someone brought this up!! I must admit I found it quite off-putting when they did, but hey, forgotten now!!

    Can I politely suggest, we move on in The Forum Olympic Spirit!!

    I Congrajulate Clare & lee on their superb performances, and feel it's for the best if this does not escalate any further!!

    I wait for Simon to ajudcate officially as he has thrown the most time into it, but result seems fair to me, despite protest, which i can see point, but post tournie seems slightly flawed!!

    Just My opinion NO OFFENCE Don, TKP!!

    GL!!


    ps. in Simons early workings & suggestions, it was clear that All multiple events scores would be cumulative, sorry it is clearly just a oversight if it was not in header, also it does not say highest scorer counts, does it either, so hope with common sense this is understood!

    I will happily accept whatever is decreed Hitman but please don't call us unOlympic for wanting to look at it! 

    Had a lot of fun last night and a HUGE thank you to all who railed (and that was loads of you) - was getting myself in a serious knot trying to play, rail Maxy (wiiiiiiiiii) and keep an eye on the rest of you.  GG ALL xx

    TY Clare, can i assure you i was not calling you or TKP Un-Olympic at all!! in fact have found you to be the opposite, and always enjoy sharing table or chat with you!!

    my post was......hmmmmm....an attempt at problem prevention, am happy for Simon to look at protest as he is away for day or two, I will leave it to him!!

    just did not want to see this escalate into a bigger issue which can happen when lots of others start posting when not aware of all facts maybe!!

    Have great day XX, & Good Luck All taking part tonight!


    PS hope to see you in my THS Omaha Donk-a-fun tonight!!
    [PPS Don90 is barred, lol!!]
