    I think you've made a good observation there BigC..........it did strike me as well that most players (though by no means all, myself included here) during the first couple of weeks or so (1-3) of the game seemed to be pretty much coasting along..........then mid-way through (4-7), a lot of bets seemed to go belly-up........& towards the end (8-10) the form started to improve again.

    Why?........no idea myself......it might be worth playing another game to see if the trends repeat themselves (hint-hint :)).

    Regarding the nigh-on identical game being played on the other site.......I get the impression that the guy that runs it keeps stats on his game, but I've never seen them posted.

    Well Done Paul and thanks to Ada for running the game.


    Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

    All,

    Sorry Oldham, now I really do feel guilty. Most other boards would be spitting feathers at me winning, you guys couldn't be nicer.

    I am now going to try my hardest to contribute more to the board.

    It is the first time I have even looked at Ice Hockey bets and I reckon that if I start putting money on them its going to go belly up!

    Paul

    Congrats Paul - and don't feel guilty! You've been a member even longer than I have (in fact you could probably give Keith a run for his money!!).

    Thanks to everyone for taking part and keeping the pressure on right to the end.

    Thanks Ada for another super contest and I'll look forward to the next one. :D

    Congrats Paul...

    and you're a great advert to many other people that don't join in Ada's games that there really is money to be won for nothing!

    I think another good point about this form of competition is that Ada himself can enter and not be at any advantage/disadvantage to the rest of us, unlike some of the other competitions. Having the organiser in there as well is always good fun and adds a bit of interest for them too
