Please, I want to appeal once more to all contestants, read the rules, read the rules, read the rules. I posted this a few pages back. I answered questions and even clarified some grey areas.
......and monitor your opponents bet slip to ensure there is no unnecessary duplication. That is the advantage for people who post early and first. |

Chelseafan1: Akryam did not include bet ID in his format here. The general rules were posted. Did you read that. An example was even there. BTW, this is not your first time participating in this tournament. |

For the avoidance of doubt, this tournament is going to be harsh. I said it before, if you break the rule, you will pay the price.
Errors or mistakes will not be tolerated. |

talktofemi: Section b of rule 14 negates the intent of that specific rule. No need voiding a bet slip because according to your rules voided or not once placed the slot is used up.
Rule 4 offers a contradiction to the format of posting. Either remove the word 'ONLY' or expunge that rule.
Thanks. Grammarian.  It has been duly Noted. |
Business › Re: Football (+Other Sports) Betting Season 10 by troot: 3:08pm On Aug 18, 2016 |
FORMAT FOR DROPPING TIPS: This is accepted format with which you must abide when dropping your game(s).
(I) Select and stake on your games.
(II) After placing your bet, just go to your history and copy the bet number/ID. (You bet ID will appear only on computer version or new mobile version)
(III) Paste the BET number/ID and Your MERRYBET USERNAME and indicate how many SLOTS you are using ONLY. In the event where no of slot(s) is not indicated, we would assume you are using 1 slot. an example is cited below:
MERRYBET USERNAME: merrybet001 BET NUMBER: 12345678 No of slot: 1 Total odd: 2.18
1. 30.08.15 00:10 Chicago White Sox - Seattle Mariners (Total Spreads (overtime) 5.5 runs) Customer type: Over @ 1.35
2. 30.08.15 02:10 Los Angeles Dodgers - Chicago Cubs (Total Spreads (overtime) 4.5 runs) Customer type: Over @ 1.20
3. 30.08.15 00:10 Atlanta Braves - New York Yankees (Total Spreads (overtime) 5.5 runs) Customer type: Over @ 1.35
Always remember to include your total odds
HOW POINTS ARE AWARDED: Points will be used to grade punters odds during the qualifiers (rounded to the nearest whole number) eg 1.55 = 2pts 2.76 = 3pts 2.44 = 2pts 5.59 = 6pts 5.49 = 5pts
What this means is that if your total odd is 1.50, and your game(s) comes out green, you will be awarded 2 points, even if your total odd is 1.59, you will be awarded 2 points. Also, if your total odd is 2.49, you will be awarded 2 points. in essence ".50" upward is rounded off as 1, while ".49" downward is rounded off as 0.
"Don't worry about the rounding off, it is our duty to do that"
Please bear in mind that NUMBER OF SLOT(S): 2 is different from SLOT NUMBER 2
This has generated a lot of arguement in the past PfP, we are trying to avoid that this time around. The ACCETABLE FORMAT IS NUMBER OF SLOT(S): (Indicate the number of slot you intend to use in front)
For the play off, all participants are awarded 3 Slots each to be used within 3 days.
IGNORANCE IS NOT AN EXCUSE. If you are not cleared, kindly ask you question and mention me. don't quote this post, its too long, quote the part you don't understand.
Remember, the tournament is not limited to soccer only, all sports are accepted except Inplays and VFL cc: akraym, merrybet |

Once again, a quick revision of the rules and format. - All participants will be grouped into 32 groups and the person with the highest odd within a group wins the group and would qualify into the main competition. - For this stage, each participant would be allocated a maximum slot of 3(three) to use within this group stage within the specified/allocated time. - Any unused slot(s) will be forfeited and cannot be carried over into the next round. - Minimum stake throughout this competition is #200(two hundred naira only)
- The MAIN competition is going to take a different route this year. We are extremely excited about this new format. - The 32 contestants who have qualified will take part in this competition in a LEAGUE format.(meaning its going to be a competition for 15weeks involving all 32 participants from the qualifying rounds and the person with the highest points amassed at the end of week 15 wins the competition) - For this stage there will be NO rounding-up of the odds. What you play is EXACTLY what you will get. - The minimum odds still remain 1.5 and the maximum odds is infinity.
- Our Week to be used in this LEAGUE stage starts from ........a MONDAY 12.01AM to SUNDAY 11.59PM. cc: merrybet, akraym |

All concerns about the rules of competition would be looked into before the competition kicks-off.
Before you start to criticize something, have you tried to at least give it a chance to at least work. Humans in general do not like change.
The rule of posting ONLY the bet numbers will be looked into.....but that rule was made in the interest of everyone. (Some will understand & most won't).
At least, that is one rule that many people here are not favoured to because it affects ease of monitoring your opponents & other contestants bets (this can still be done via the MERRYBET platform) and also copying some good games from some good punters. The PROs & CONs will be reviewed again.
A decision will be made and will be made known. cc: merrybet, akraym |
