First to 100000 in the 2015+ Tumbleweed contest. Winner of a few rounds of a diverse range of quizzes/games. Some decent times in alternative challenges as a fiftysomething who merely walks briskly. Briefly led All The Actons.

Re: Tumbleweed Scores
I did say don't, but it seems that Tube Geek has got his maths wrong, 675 is 9 Bells, which I am surprised at, as I claimed 16 Bells at 06:00, meaning there was 10 Bells excess, or I made a mistake!DavidC wrote:The scores are based on the claims made during the period, not the hours during the period that are being claimed. The first claim on Sunday 14th referenced a longer period from Saturday 13th than the dead time and the left to carry forward into the next period after the last claim on Saturday 20th.

Re: Tumbleweed Scores
No, as the amount of 'dead time' plus unclaimed time at the week comes to less than the ten bell 'excess' coming in as unclaimed time at the previous week.Tube Geek wrote:Sorry, i did get my maths wrong. but does that mean i was right first time then?A Challenge wrote:I did say don't, but it seems that Tube Geek has got his maths wrong, 675 is 9 Bells, which I am surprised at, as I claimed 16 Bells at 06:00, meaning there was 10 Bells excess, or I made a mistake!DavidC wrote:The scores are based on the claims made during the period, not the hours during the period that are being claimed.

It was an invalid claim, followed by a spoiler, which you lose 15 bells worth of points!A Challenge wrote:And that makes a difference because? That was an invalid spoiler!Iain wrote:ffs, the time on the previous post changed when I logged in
(Copied and pasted from the rules section)
If a player makes two or more spoiler posts in a row, then only the first spoiler will reset the clock. All consecutive spoilers by that player will be ignored and have no effect on the clock.
Invalid points claims are NOT counted as spoilers. Typos made when claiming for weeds or bells are counted as spoilers, so "40 weef", or "2 bellsd" are SPOILERS, and not invalid claims. Note that a "typo" refers to the mis-spelling of the non-numeric part of a claim. If a player accidentally types "30 weed" instead of "20 weed" when only 20 weed are available then it will be counted as an invalid claim.

Re: Tumbleweed Scores
I am currently unable to post the scores as I have no WiFi after the lightening storm on Thursday night, and can only post on Mobile Data, so not the scores, which have to be done on my computer!
