Read post #462 HFFP for an explanation of how it's being handled. Your predictions post was submitted before the Walsall & Barnet games kicked off, so they will be counted in your score for the week.
Sorry about the name change, I left a note on your page again to apologise though. Tickler should have points deducted for this, thats what happens in football
Once the error had been detected, post #462 went up with instructions on what posters before and after the adjustments to fixtures should do. It's everyone's responsibility to follow the instructions. You didn't - you edited your original post. Tickles made a mistake - many have done the same in the past. Countless times I have asked that the first poster after the first appearance of a new week's fixtures should validate accuracy of the fixtures set up against Ricardo's Rules (first entry on this thread), particularly the kick-off time restrictions on fixtures. That is intended to prevent the sort of mess that has occurred this time. It seems this suggested early audit is being bi-passed all the time. The vast majority of punters understood post #462. I do not enter individual poster's predictions at a match level, but have to rely on not606's time-stamps to validate posters submissions against the prediction thread rules. You lost out unfortunately - not Tickler's fault as you clearly read post #462, yet edited your original submission, for which I have no record. Obviously when results of matches are known, predictions can't be accepted. Multiple posts by the same individual are also not accepted, the first post is used providing they have not been edited in anyway that they violate the established rules - critically the time of submission (or final "edited" time-stamp. Tickler will not be penalized any points. Feel free to take the piss out of him mind If people read the rules & followed them all of this crap could be avoided. Caveat emptor Long winded I realize. But it's my wasted time.
WEEKLY REPORT (weekend of Oct 17th/18th - ROUND 9)- Sheff Wed Away. PLEASE CHECK YOUR SCORES. It's been a pretty confusing round this weekend - with a number of misunderstandings of the Prediction League Rules and intermediate adjustments. Before contesting your posted results, please read post # 462 for rationale for scoring the multi-fixture situation and any subsequent explanation posts made by me. It's taken me probably an extra 4 hours of work all told to respond to various comments etc during the process of logging & scoring. ellewoods is this weeks winner with 12 points - well done Mr. 2-1,1-2 - it worked for the first time this season. (Note: There will be no appeals for incorrect logging of results if they are lodged more than 2 weeks after the round in question). Cheers. I'll post season-to-date stats for everyone at the end of this month. WK 9 ...........................Pts....City (Sheff.

I make it 9 points for me (correct scores Leeds and Barnet) but will happily accept you ruling on this.
UNDER CONSTRUCTION - please wait before I remove this line before you inundate me with questions !!! Hahaha oh for the blind xx
The mind boggles Sir Ben. I can't be bothered to even reply to the daft sods. This track sums it up..
I did read it but thought changing my predictions to the new ones would sort it out so not sure really whats happened there. Tickler needs disciplinary action though I reckon!

Thought it had been decided that the weekly winner selects the next set of fixtures? Just saying like.
I missed that memo. Ok Ben - just after the last 2/3 weeks of debarcle and extra posts and collating for tigerincanada sic, that I would provide a stress free fixture list. anyway Ellewoods won & that would be like Tickles all over again.
