Fwiw Hitman i didnt even look properly at all events in advance apart from my own, one of which i had to pull out of. This was brought up to me and as a team we opted to put a friendly protest as it was i feel. I know this is for some fun and thats how it should be imo.
I fully respect those giving up free time to give something for everyone else.
Firstly, thank you Lisa for stepping in for Simon to collate and update the tables.Work like this often goes unnoticed, so cheers.
Secondly, I think this TKP official protest, if handled correctly, is justified. I will of course, like the rest of our team will, accept any decision made but I would like clarification 1st. The Olympic spirit will be respected.
Thirdly, thanks to Simon for organising this and as there are no prizes, thanks to all forum regs (whatever team they maybe) for taking part.
Meanwhile, I am lodging a protest about the badmington as well!! I am sure Maxally [TKP], is deliberatley losing to me in these team challenges and IT IS NOT RIGHT!!!!
NEWSFLASH!!! It always the badmington is'nt it!! Meanwhile, I am lodging a protest about the badmington as well!! I am sure Maxally [TKP], is deliberatley losing to me in these team challenges and IT IS NOT RIGHT!!!! I vote The South Stoke Korean TKP be Thrown out!! Posted by HITMAN_RV
i have noticed that about maxally too. but there's no way of proving it. he disguises any brilliance so well. a natural.
I just spoke to Gail Emms and she said that mixed doubles is a TEAM event as the TEAM of two are on court at the same time as a TEAM, and as a TEAM event the TEAM scores are cumulative seemples ;p
Message from Simon!! Who is at the Olympics and has met the olympic Commitee.....
Simon " If I haven't put cumulative on the event description it's just an oversight, my intention was that all multiplayer events were team efforts so of course scores are cumulative. Thanks Lisa, glad you're getting the controversy not me "
Kofi says......"The result stands, now can we hang Don90!!"
Kofi, such a diplomat!!
Sorry TKP, we understand, but on consultation with various team players, seems everyone knew it was cumulative, as did solack & defo all on my table!!
Misunderstandings happen, sry, we shall endeavor to make sure this event we run for the community has no more grey areas!!
.....& we are banning badmington from all future Olympic events!!
If anybody still has issues, Kofi, told me to tell them....."SHUTTLECOCKS!!!"

Im very unlikley to be in Nottingham mate. Between the trip to Blackpool which we used as a holiday for a week rather than the weekend for SPT, Lol_i_call moving in and getting a Pup money taken its toll. Going to take us a month or so to recover.
Ill see you all next season though .
To be fair hitman it wouldnt be sport if there wasnt a different interpritation of rules on one team didnt take advantage of that. Happens in F1 everyother week.
Glad this has all been sorted and we can now move on! Well done again to everyone playing, cashing and getting medals. I wasn't around yesterday so the results and medal table will all be updated as soon as I get a copy of last nights lobby!! Sorry for the delay

Well done to everyone who played tonight, SUPERSNEDD won the gold for Team 51, Karlluke gets silver for TKP and Chillie gets bronze for DYM Legends. Good luck to everyone who is representing their teams in DTD tomorrow.
it looks like thews at 10 isn't running tonight. can't see it in the lobby. have been awaiting its appearance but still nothing. perhaps best to decide early to transfer to another similar game?

Just spotted this....suggest the £2k BH at 21:30 - same buy in etc etc. Interested to hear others' thoughts.
Thanks Clare, good idea, the 7's has been mentioned also, anyone else any thoughts? Think we'll give it to about 3pm to see if the Thews turns up before anything is decided!
