Well the criteria is pretty fact based isn't it? It's not an opinion. If you've tried to pick someone who didn't score 150+ cumulative runs you've cheated pretty much

Nah Greenidge should be on the disqualified players list..

However I've just noticed an even big a **** up on my part..Not sure how to really correct it as I passed someone for question 2A and the player they chose doesn't actually fit the criteria. I think I'll have to give them 2 more chances what do you think?

Sorry.
Yeah you'll have to.

Does the fail player have to be eligible for the question, i.e. to have scored 150+ on debut?
Yes they do mate.

I'll do question 3 in a second, still waiting on question 2 as I think I should give the person I passed incorrectly 2 more chances..

Yes sounds fair. (though not entirely, but that should be OK)

Good that you pointed it out yourself before publishing the results. Because reversing the whole thing after that wouldn't have been possible.

It was more of an oversight I think. Burgey had chosen Keith Miller with the averages one. He averages 36.97, Burgey has probably assumed when I wrote 32.00 to 36.00, it would include anything in the 36's, but I definitely wrote .00 to make it more clear. Then, I just for some reason passed it... Burgey do you mind attempting to select 2 more players for that question. I'm sorry, I know you wont get anyone as good as Miller..

I mean, I'm amazed this hasn't come up before. I would have thought there was a "if you try to pick a player who doesn't fit the criteria you get a sheep" rule in place. Or something like it

edit the fact it was Burgey strengths the case of making him fail imo

Yeah he should have gotten a FAIL. But in was his first pick, he should be entitled to 2 more chances like everyone else.

Do I need to pick two? I want Botham if he's available.

Haha overreaction much !

I wanted to make things faster in NUFAN's absence. I hope he wouldn't have said that Botham was available. BIG DEAL !
