PD, I will give you the benefit of the doubt that your rude posts were written because you actually thought my post was somehow a dig at you (goodness knows how). It wasn't. I had never noticed before a scenario where those on the same number of points were not listed alphabetically.


I now know the rule and will happily move on to something else in my sad petty little life. Begs the question can one happily move on anywhere in a sad life? Probably not. Sadly moving on doesn't sound right though.

To move sadly on might split an infinitive... which is sad.


And to say there is an element of luck is to cast a slur on my genius footballing nous viz this weeks results - the idea!


Just because it's true that any week I do well is sure to be one of unusual not to say silly results.


Yours,


Mystic max

I don't know if it's a reflection on the makers(?) of the game or what they think their players are like, but the 2nd tie-break rule is, after 'correct results' it goes to 'correct outcomes'. If points are equal and correct results are equal then correct outcomes must be...........

I thought you were using witchcraft or some such?

    • Sorry but I think it's best if people just check things for themselves when they buy things. In three shops/restaurants (from some years back) I just avoid the places concerned, as in all three  cases I was pretty sure it wasn't a genuine mistake, and in one place  it happened more than once and usually late at night.
    • Sorry Sue - me again. This has been on my mind all day, it's a big bug bear of mine. If you don't mind - please can you private message me some of these shops so I can cross reference / add to my AVOID list.  Thanks in advance. Let's make sure this doesn't happen this Christmas, particularly as we head into sales season. Even more problematic in my experience.
    • Pity you didn't quote what you are referring to, Mal. I didn't see the previous post, and my mind is boggling 😮
    • The Cherry Tree was absolutely excellent for a while when a youngish couple ran it and brought in a really good chef. It was them who renamed it The Cherry Tree. They were really turning it around. The chef did fantastic Scotch eggs, and one of the best roasts I've ever had. If memory serves the then owner,  for some reason known only to himself, took a dislike to them and what they were doing and sacked them all. And yes we weren't expecting a top class  meal last Christmas, and we left it too late to book anywhere else, but we weren't expecting it for a hundred pounds EACH to be quite as terrible as it was. Stupid us. Not sure why you are confused by my post, Jazzer? Did I misremember? Now it's got even more confusing because my posts have been merged and your confused emoji is shown at the bottom of the second one instead of the first 🤣
