I think that what Andi is trying to say is that he has picked this twist as it disadvantages his main challengers in some way, just as 'not being allowed to leave the network' is supposed to disadvantage Andi.

So he is trying to screw over his main challengers as Matt said then...

My point here as what last time was to make last time zone 1 to actually run and think of out of the box thinking seeing as im unable to take part in this round thanks to BERC timetables i hope its a sadistic as it can be with lots of running :lol: .

plus the point is my top score can only be 48 points at maximum so unlikely to be a winning score at end but i can effectively if at top in 5 rounds ie in top 3 can score points of other challengers and make it a very interesting challenge at end. hence the signature i dont need to prove my point i cant contest so can enjoy each and every round 2-6

nope according to BERC rules my maximum score can be 48 ie that is 4 wins out of the 5 yes i can score therotically 60 5 wins (unlikely) but would have to drop 12.

so already knowing this fact i think i enjoy it more that the fact that i have to play catch up from round 1 can actually just go out and try things differantly with new runs planned for random 15 twists.

Yeah, Andi you can still score 60! If you don't compete in all 6 rounds, dropping a score is meaningless as you are taking away zero- no change.

4.1: Within the current season (six rounds) the maximum score any challenger can obtain is 60. Within each individual round the maximum score that can be obtained is 12, this means that if you compete in all six rounds of one season you have a little bonus, you can discount your worse score.
You only drop a score if you compete in all 6? If Tangy has ruled otherwise just for you it's a bit of a farce
well that is what he says so i abide by the ruling shame he didnt give more time wise as i wasnt rostered to work sept 21st i took the offer of more work before he stated the date.

So let me get my head around this:

Everyone can drop there worst score, so for someone who completes in all 6 rounds then they can drop their worse one. However, for everyone who does less rounds then 0 gets dropped effectively.

EXCEPT for Andi, who has to drop a score despite not taking part in all 6 rounds?

WHAT ON EARTH? Surely Andi is just another competitor so just comes under the normal rules of dropping ZERO.

This seems a bit of a mountain out of a molehill - you keep your five best scores :)

Which isn't what Andi is saying though...

You keep your five best scores. So if Andi does five rounds, he can't drop anything, so surely his score is his score from those five rounds, and that's it?

Well yes in theory but to me it seems as though Tangy says he has to drop a score anyway...

So everyone's score is their best 5 from 6, but Andi's is his best 4 from 5?
