Deek Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 I thought the rule was that an individual could make any guess but only one at a time until confirmed either way. Just what I have been doing, I guessed Hughsie earlier on, he has since posted but not said if he got my pressie or not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boof Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 Assuming that's a 'No' my next guess is Deek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shaun.lawson Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 Tams bird for the peoples champ Id like to stick up for soops, for someone has has been keeping a close eye on the thread I can confirm he hasn't "cheated" at all Really? How close? There's no updates between these two posts here: http://www.hmfckickb...00#entry3316962 http://www.hmfckickb...50#entry3317048 jambo71's complaint that Soop was choosing for her didn't eliminate that guess for Dunks, did it? And there's no update between these two posts either: http://www.hmfckickb...50#entry3319085 http://www.hmfckickb...50#entry3319133 But before Ulysses dons his black cap :'>, first, it's unbelievably confusing keeping track with it all. And second, both Sooperstar and Pull Shapes were mightily brave to have made so many guesses while, at the time, they still hadn't been outed. Mightily brave - unlike the complete and utter coward typing this. PS. How cool would it be if Morph won? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaka Demus & pliers Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 Shaun, I'm pretty sure that the rules state only one guess at a time and subsequent guesses will be ignored. It could actually work in someones favour as the guesser thinks that its a no when in fact the guess has been ignored. Anyway its only a game ffs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ulysses Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 Incidentally, point of info: I thought no-one was allowed to make more than 1 guess at a time, ie. until an update was given on whether it was a successful guess or not. Is that right or wrong? Correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mightily brave - unlike the complete and utter coward typing this. PS. How cool would it be if Morph won? The first one was clearly a joke! But fair play, you have me on the second one, there were definitely no updates between my guesses. Except this one. Update No correct guesses since my last update Carry on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulysses Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 That is right, but confirmation of the guess being right or wrong can be from any player. Who cheated? This is incorrect. Confirmation that the guess is right or wrong can only come from one of the organisers or from the player whose name has been guessed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sooperstar Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 This is incorrect. Confirmation that the guess is right or wrong can only come from one of the organisers or from the player whose name has been guessed. Fair enough, would just make sense really that if someone makes a guess say about a player who has already been eliminated, then another player points that out, then the guesser could be free to carry on. Anyway, I think we're all over analysing this a bit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulysses Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 would just make sense really that if someone makes a guess say about a player who has already been eliminated, then another player points that out, then the guesser could be free to carry on. Yes, they would be free to carry on - the fact that someone has already been guessed or eliminated is there on the thread for anyone to see, or to point out. What we don't want is people using their excessive analysis to tell people that something is the correct answer or must be the correct answer. You should keep your spreadsheets to yourselves, in other words. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ulysses Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 Anyway, now that the debate on the Regulations Governing Procedure In The Competition has been concluded, here's what I think is a full update since Geoff's post at 10:24 am: Four Secret Santas were outed! Jambo Ian 1874 got a present for The Peoples Champ! bighusref got a present for The Comedian! shaun.lawson got a present for The Doctor! jamboinglasgow got a present for HmfcAndy!

Ulysses Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 I will be taking the slightly unusual step of pausing the game - which I don't think has happened before. The thread will be closed in a few minutes and will be re-opened about half an hour after today's game finishes. Ho Ho, it's a football forum Ho.
