that exiledmanc,when placing his 7th bet,made an error.He stated his bank as being 527.52 units.Quite clearly,under standard arithmetical procedure,the bank total should have been 527.53 units - which invalidates the bet. SORREEEE
My only concern is will you overall score be high enough when the others get there 10 bets in a row!
I hope it is as you are certainly there first!
Man U will not slip up today!
to get ten on the trot at FIRST attempt takes some doing ! Well done.Don't forget,you can become Exiledmanc II if you want to re-enter
But I reckon a few more will get there before the end of May - whether 8 will make it by then is another matter.
Just to confirm - exiledmanc has correctly forecast Ten On The Trot and his starting bank of 100 units now stands at a total of 1463.04 units.Now that's not a bad little profit for 10 bets !!!!!!!
admit to not noticing you sneak past the post.Well done.I've checked back through all your bets and I'm happy with them all - no problem.All within the 'rules'/spirit of the game.Actually,taking Betfair rules into account,I think you've robbed yourself of a few points.So I'm quite happy to accept your figures (and we can revert to them again in the event of a 'tie-break' situation if it arises).
So - official confirmation for record purposes.Doogie has achieved Ten On The Trot successfully with a total bank of 1815.68 units.
Excellent - 2 out of 8 so far.Don't forget,31st May not too far off !!
I've been off-line the last couple of days 'cos my other 'pooter crashed (taking a bit of valuable info with it,so gotta take out its hard drive,check it,bla bla bla).Anyways.Me new 'pooter has been stolen fron the kids ! Tough ol' life - for some !!
It's an XP system which I've never had before.BUT,with all the new set-up,guess what ???? I can login at Gamebookers again !!! Won't I love telling them where to stuff it 'cos they never answered my e-mails,and withdrawing my millions.
Of course,the downside is that there won't now be any prize money for the Trotters !!
JOKING - it's not my style ! There's STILL £150 up for grabs.And I reckon some of you are getting bloody lazy !! Only 2 in the quarters so far ???? Call yourselves tipsters ??? Finger out please !!
Got to be very quick - this new 'pooter is shite ! It disconnects whenever it feels a bit tired - enough to drive a bloke to fucking swearing !
Z - officially confirm your completion of Ten On The Trot with a bank of 1830.88. So that's only 1730.88 more than my current bank.Congratulations !!
(Unfortunately,between this 'pooter and Tiscali disconnecting every 5 minutes,I'm never sure how long I have on line.)
(Fellas - take a tip ! NEVER let your wife have a credit card ! Unless it's backed by HER money ! Bless her - and all that stuff - but she bought this 'pooter which is a pile of shite from Tiny !!!! Now she tells me she has paid £600 for a bed which should have been delivered 2 weeks ago !! I ain't worried about the bed,just the dosh - but their contract is so well worded that she can't wriggle out without forfeiting 20%.Hey - but she loves me.She keeps making all these errors in judgement !!!!!!)
C'mon hoops - surely you're not gonna risk it on QPR ?
I think you will be ok mate but at the top i did say i was concerned at the size of your final bank but to be honest like you said there are 8 days to go and you will be well unlucky not to make it (my bank isnt that much bigger )
Yes i have tried to do a Zland2 today but 8 days is pushing it as somehow will need to do a couple in the space of a day, so will need some early and late ko's but my chances are slim
There are 3 of us so far and hoops and others are very close.
the original deadline is 31st May 03 for competition end date - PROVIDED THERE ARE 8 QUARTER FINALISTS.Currently,there are only 3.
Now,I'm thinking out loud only
My little brain is thinking this - if 8 players or less achieve 10 on the trot by midnight 31st May,those players will qualify to QFinals BY RIGHT (regardless of bank level).If more than 8 achieve 10 on the Trot,the bank level will be taken into account.
If LESS THAN 8 qualify by 31st May,those qualifying players will become QFinalists BY RIGHT (regardless of bank level),the deadline will be extended to allow time for other players to qualify under the original rules (but within the revised timescale).
Still with me ?? Wake up ! Anyone see a problem with my thinking ?
(Oh,got the old pooter up and running again.NEVER buy from Tiny.Since the old pooter got going again,Tiscali has noyt logged off automatically.I'm even tempted to consider them for my broadband provider)

Mulv,
Thanks very much for running this contest and for providing witty comments. Looking down the list of matches for tomorrow this was the first one that caught my eye. I don't expect to be around for the Q/F even if this one gets through, but at least I've shown how much little money you could make by getting nine in a row.
Any chance of picking the quarter finalists by goal difference instead of final balance ? (Tromso 8 ?). I didn't think so ! Never mind.
My hat comes off to all those that make 10 in a row, and Mulv, good luck on that £600 bed of yours when it arrives.
Finally, go with BTOpenworld for broadband if you can.
Just looked - hardly believe Slavia drew.Incredible.Really sorry.Can I say 'shite' on here ?? THAT is really SHITE.Sorry mate !
I know forums are changing and all that,but it ain't too late yet.I'm just about to give a 2nd bet a roll.AND - I make up the rules !! Could be a while to go yet (meaning,until I win the bledering thing,rather than a 'cunian !!) so keep banging in your picks.
Somewhere,there's a link to the NEW forum.To a simpleton like me,the NEW forum needs looking at again (and again and again and again) but if you are about average intelligence,I expect it's a doddle !
IMPORTANT - this message will appear on all Trotter levels on this OLD forum.
DO NOT POST TROTTER BETS HERE ANY MORE
Instead,Jhim has kindly set up a new section within the NEW forum - you will have to register (piece of cake !).And if you do not have it already,here's the link
