China Open 2013 Prediction Contest

Jewell wrote:After much thought, I have decided to REJECT GJs withdrawal request. With this decision we will continue to have a minimum 10 contestants, therefore normal points will be allocated in the Grand Championship.

much thought = 13 mins, you really are bucking banker

I'm considering withdrawing from this rather farcical contest IF SKULLMANS QF POINTS ARE NOT NULL AND VOIDED.

This is a joke contest run by a bucking wankshaft.

Jewell wrote:Any withdrawal request from you will fall on deaf ears.

Once you enter you cannot then withdraw unless I say so.

you have run this contest into the ground, total farce, worst ever.

Ok, just looking at the previous posts, i assumed skullman had pm 'd jewell his predictions.
So i have to ask Why is skullmans predictions on jewells post?

I did PM my predictions. Smart and GJ are just giving Jewell trouble because that's what they do for fun.

Why did you pm them? Whats the difference between just pisting them normally?

Wasn't expecting to have Internet access. Visiting family abroad and was expecting to see all sorts of local sights and not be on here, but bad weather

Think I'll post my predictions if it's alright, with you Jewell, to prevent more hassle. They'll be the same as the ones I PM'd you.

rat Jewell has buggered this one right up, cant stick to clear rules, beggars belief it really does

Skullman wrote:Wasn't expecting to have Internet access. Visiting family abroad and was expecting to see all sorts of local sights and not be on here, but bad weather

FUN FACT: The internet is available abroad as well as in England.

So a very poor excuse and only makes me think that foul play is at work here between rat Jewell and skullman. Myself and GJ in particular just want a fair contest, and this one stinks.

Smart in the past you have texted me your predictions so stop winding Jewell up. It may be a fun thing to do for you but it detracts from the contest and makes it appear a farce for guest readers and potential future entrants.

Jewell you're doing a good job. Carry on.

If any parakeeting has took place recently it's a TD deciding to change the deadline of predictions because some people he didn't like were yet to predict, and then go off proclaiming to the masses it was a masterstroke

what happens in the event of tied points at the top ........this has not been specified in the opening post for this contest

Jewell wrote:I've done the calculations and a tie at the top is not possible. In the event of a tie for the other positions, correct scoreline predictions will take precedence.

have you taken into account the 10 points to be awarded for correct winner

Jewell wrote:I have Skullman's prediction already which he gave to me a couple of days ago. Just waiting on Smart and King.Kauto now.

you will get it when I am ready, I'm the daddy and dont forget it

and are you sure that skull is sticking to the "PM'd" prediction cos he decided to post up his SF prediction,

Jewell wrote:Unless I get another PM from him stating otherwise, I will be sticking with his original prediction.

you can post his prediction up if you have it

I might just post mine on this thread and would hope that there is no collusion between you and skull.

Jewell wrote:I also find it quite funny how all thoughts of withdrawal have dissappeared from your mind now that you have a decent chance of winning this.

yeah its mildly amusing
