What I want to know is, how did the poster at the very bottom of the table move up on place in the rankings?

Because there were 50 in the table last week - can't find it now but I think if you don't make a prediction for 5 weeks you drop off the list.

If you look at position 24, you will see 2 players who have the exact same score, so they are deemed both 24th, instead of 24th and 25th, therefore raising the position of all under that position.

Interesting looking at Mr A's results and scores versus brendy_eire's. The bonus points are huge!!

Thats dumb. Thats not how rankings work. There shouldn't be anyone in 25th as a result. If Dundalk and Bray were tied for points the team below them wouldn't be third, they'd be fourth. I have teh same problem with your bonus point awards.

I understand completely what you saying but this is just a running table. If this was the final table, what you say would apply.

In respect to the bonus points, I do not see what the problem is?

That is an interesting comparison between brandy eire and the boss alright !!

Why does it matter if its a running table or the final table? It's wrong, and the problem is clear when we look at the bonus system. You should only be awarding bonus points to the top 5, but you pick the top 5 points achieved and award bonus points to everyone on those points.

For example, this is the current week. Only these individuals should get bonus points. Sligoman is not 4th, hes joint 5th.
1. nigel-harps1954
2. Real Ale Madrid
3.SFC16
- redobit
5.sligoman
and everyone tied with sligoman

Partysaint is not 5th, hes 9th. Because there are 8 people ahead of him.

Not correct and not how the bonus point structure was set out at the start of the year.

Which is exactly how it was intended.

I would list people in the overall table by actual position though. Minor issue.

Well theres no sense in that but if its how it was set out at the beginning fair enough.

**nigel-harps1954** · 22/05/2017, 3:55 PM

I should just get all the bonus points

**TheBoss** · 22/05/2017, 4:13 PM

As stated above, I did state at the start the season that the top 5 scores per week would get bonus points. I did put 'POS' as the heading to that column which is probably a bad choice of word in that circumstance but what that table shows is the top scores rather than users position if you understand. I do agree with what you said about the overall table, I will amend that for future.
