Kaya took out yesterday's cup. Who is it going to take it tonight?
Today I am licking my wounds after buying high selling low (boo hoo x 2).
My tip is for +123
Rehash of the rules:
1. Winner of the day or night is the closest to the pin. We can do some arithmetic acrobatic to adjust for the accuracy advantage one gains by bidding late but that will make it difficult for the poor sod who has to do the tallying at the end of the day (night). My vision for the comp is to have some fun and have a bit of a laugh on the side. For those who want to play it seriously that's fine too and they can wait till 10:59 PM AEST to put in their accurate bid but they lose a bit of that advantage if somebody else has already bid their value
2. For the running monthly comp we have the following rules: a. If your bid is within 20 points of actual DJIA value, you get +10 points b. If your bid is within 50 points but more than 20 points away from actual DJIA value, you get +5 points c. If your bid is within 100 points but more than 50 points away from actual DJIA value, you get zero points d. If your bid is within 200 points but more than 100 points away from actual DJIA value you get -5 points e. If your bid is more than 200 points away from actual DJIA value you get -10 points f. At the end of the month, we award the winner of the month cup to the punter with the highest score and wipe the slate clean i.e. start from zero.
