The Scoop

Here's the deal.

As you might have known, the servers went down this week for two days. Unfortunately, it happened before I got to score everything and then post the results, so this thread is relatively late. I mean, really. Thursday night at midnight? Yeesh.

And I'm going to be away for the weekend, getting back Sunday afternoon.

So this week is a mess. I'm going to post a bare-bones entry, because I'm running out of time this evening.

Week 7 Results
1st place - Nick/Star (2x)
2nd place - Toni/Dallas (1.6x)
3rd place - Terence/Sarah (1.2x)
4th place - Ken/Tina (.8x)
5th place - Andrew/Dan (.4x)
6th place - Kelly/Christy (0x)

Mini-Results

Unfortunately, we had a couple players bust out of the game. Thanks to Max Headroom and mrc to playing the game. You guys went for all the marbles and it didn't work out, but it's better to go down in a blaze of glory, I say.

Yogi and michel leapfrogged over the top few scorers by getting the bonus right. Actually, they bet on different pairs, with one picking Nick/Starr & Kelly/Christy and another picking Toni/Dallas & Andrew/Dan. No one got the Terence/Sarah & Ken/Tina pick.

Week 8 Payout Table

5th place - 0x

Max Individual Bet - 50 points

This week's table is called "Mini-Payout."

A couple notes

As you've noticed the Max Bet lowered considerably this week. It's because of such a short time-frame this week (3 days) and in case people have been trickling back to the boards slowly. We'll make this week count, but we'll slow down for this week... Just in case.

No bonus, but I promise a nice one next week, to kick-start the game again.
