Incidentally, I will endeavour to run a virtual book (bookie odds) after each daily close. You can place bets before the next day's open. It is not for real money but the winner will be the punter with the highest winnings at month end. All a bit of fun. I will start it on both rooms on 31 January (if I remember!).

Cheers
Bones

Thanks Owl.

I'd like to thank my sister for lending me the pin to pick the number with.

I'd like to thank all my fellow BBers, here and in other places, whose combined wisdom has contributed to the expertise I have acquired in pinsticking.

I'd like to thank my fellow contestants, for leaving me the whole of the downfield to play in.

And I'd like to thank you, the returning officer, for running this election (sorry, comp) so efficiently.

I promise to wear the yellow jersey with pride, and to wash it before eventually handing it on at some later date. And also to not wear it when splashing concrete or bitumen or red wine.

Bones, - actually, a mirror does sound like a sensible token trophy!

One small enough to be easily and cheaply packaged and posted from one winner to the next each month, just like they do with The Ashes in cricket. For that very purpose of admiring ones winning self for a few weeks. Maybe one of those that usually hang in a birdcage ;->

Bones - 02 Feb 2003 16:30 - 32 of 447

Juzzle - I like it!

Remember, if you are wagering, the bet has to be posted before the open of trade on Monday. Fresh odds will go up most evenings I hope but it depends how bored I get doing it :)

I'll start it off with a 10 bet on myself at 66/1.

NB This is not for real dosh!!

Bones

Juzzle - 02 Feb 2003 17:17 - 33 of 447

Interesting that the two outermost bets carry the same odds as the adjacent ones, despite having a wide open 'upfield' and 'downfield' advantage. Presumably odds shown are based on a precise hit, whereas the contest prize goes to the 'nearest'.

Bones - 02 Feb 2003 21:22 - 34 of 447

Good observation Juzzle. Get your money on while the odds are available :)

Juzzle - 02 Feb 2003 21:34 - 35 of 447

Ain't got any money :-(

Sorry Jeroo, I have corrected the header

Thank you Owl - Not that I've a cat's chance in hell of winning.

Juzzle - 01 Apr 2003 18:43 - 103 of 447

Any fool can accidentally win one month. But to win two months running - hey, that's impressive. Make it three in a row and I think you get to keep the yellow jersey forever.

(Been away and missed the deadline , so no danger of me winning April)

bionicdog - 01 Apr 2003 19:17 - 104 of 447

any fool can accidentally win one month , but it takes a real idiot (who can't even be bothered to change his guess each month) to win twice running ;o)

Oh, what a surprise! Pity it won't last. Just logged on and I must admit that I am disappointed that the market has not dropped which I expected it to do today! Got some money burning a hole in my account and everything is tooooooooooo expensive. C'est la vie

midknight - 11 Apr 2003 13:00 - 107 of 447

owl,

It might be a better idea, to save yourself a lot of time and effort, if you posted the end of day positions only on the last five days before the final day of trading in the month. Just a thought!

little woman - 11 Apr 2003 17:53 - 108 of 447

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh,

but by posting often (even every other day?), owl can keep the tread near the top and keep reminding the rest of us that it's still happening!

Owl, if you are 'retiring' from this activity at the end of the year
and have not yet found someone to succeed you, I would like to propose Little Woman as your successor, if she is willing to accept the job. I am sure
she would do a superb job, just as you have done this year.
Anyhow, enjoy your 'retirement'!

little woman - 28 Nov 2003 12:54 - 385 of 447

Thanks midknight - I see you didn't put yourself forward!

I must admit I have considered it, but there are going to be quite a few times next year (a few days at a time) that I will not be able to do it - and there is a posibility I may have to go away for a few months (but this has been hanging over me for almost a year now, and as time goes by is getting more likely..... )

I agree owl, you have done an excellent job and wish you could take it on for another year????????

midknight - 28 Nov 2003 14:34 - 386 of 447

LW: I haven't put my name forward because I am away for several months every year.

Thanks for the comments but I am looking forward to my retirement. As for travelling, this is being sent from the Swiss Alps and I am looking forward to testing the start of the skiing season this weekend. Also trying to get to grips with this keyboard.

The December competition is now closed, the consensus view is 4415.5. It is nice to see a record number of entries (40) for the last competition organised by myself. Now where are those volunteers to continue the competition?

Owl, is there going to be a competition in January?
Perhaps, twelve people could offer their services
on a monthly basis to keep this competition going.
I would (provisionally) be willing to do it in November 2004.

It is up to moneyam and/or volunteers to decide whether or not the competition continues. It is a good idea to suggest volunteers on a monthly basis, lets see if there are any takers.

little woman - 22 Dec 2003 19:04 - 428 of 447

I did talk to Mike and said I was considering it - but he said moneyam wanted to take it on (and they are donating the prize!).

Go on you know you want to do it:-)

little woman - 23 Dec 2003 20:22 - 432 of 447

OK folks, it looks like Mike has twisted my arm (not really!) I'm going to take over the FTSE competition from January and will continue as long as I am in the UK!

I'll start a new Thread, but will carry over the previous winners details so you'll still see all the hard work the owl did on your behalfs. So as soon as it is up and running, please feel free to start posting your entries for Jan 04!

p.s. Mike are you no longer donating the prize?

midknight - 24 Dec 2003 12:13 - 435 of 447

Owl, thanks for doing a superb job and a 'happy retirement'
with all good wishes for the New Year. I think Bullshare
should give you a special booze voucher on the eve of your
retirement.

LW, pleased to see everything has worked out so well.
