Ollie posted 59 minutes after the last claim though so isn't valid!tubeguru wrote:Except that moley and GU both lose 75 points because they posted one minute after Ollie.greatkingrat wrote:35 weed (I think that is the first time 3 people all posted at once)

Re: Tumbleweed Game Thread
Hadn't spotted that.
So Ollie loses 75, moley gets 75, and GU gets nothing.

Re: Tumbleweed Game Thread
25 weed, and I was wondering if anyone would notice that. I saw moley poised to claim one bell as the minute ticked over, so I submitted my own post as soon as my computer clock hit six minutes past, and unfortunately the forum clock seems to be a few seconds behind so it registered as five past.

Re: Tumbleweed Game Thread
To be honest I have tried to claim before and you get a message that someone has posted before you... However with the same time claim as moley this afternoon it went straight to post no message... Did we both post within a nano-second??

Re: Tumbleweed Game Thread
Pass - I don't know how the forum does it. If you posted within, say, a second or two of each other it may have been too fast for the script to deal with it, and so both posts would have gone in "together". But normally the software knows to give you the warning that someone has posted as you are replying.
