Scores seem to be all wrong. All points scored in the Derby appear to have been added twice to the totals.

As far as I can see the doubling of points should only apply to Champions Day. :?:

They also seem to have allowed new entries to the mini-league after the deadline as I'm sure Chris hadn't entered his team on Friday when I looked :?

A minileague deadline is pretty insignificant this early in the competition, but an apparent major mis-scoring should be sorted. Sometimes fiso mystifies me, a games organiser gives, or doesn't give a particular KC/assist and posters are complaining all over the place about a very minor, and even subjective issue, but here a major mis-scoring seems to be of no concern. :shock:

If I've got the double point thing all wrong please let me know.

I think there was a major points screw up a couple of weeks ago that is still uncorrected.

I think you have the double points wrong.
I got 30 points for Andrew Balding which is correct as he had 2 runners.
I had 26.05 points for Aidan O'Brien which is also correct.
It is 10 points for the 2 runners and 3.05 points for the winner and 13 points for the 3rd place.
For some reason the trainers show multiple times in the points breakdown but you don't get them each time.

I think it was sometime on Thursday/Friday I added my team in. Don't remember exactly when and didn't know there was a deadline as one wasn't mentioned on this thread.

Used a pin to make all my selections and just picked outsiders for the races which recently have come good.

Anyone checked that you can't change your jockeys/trainers which should be fixed from the 1st race after you enter your team?

No I haven't, at least not in the respect that you are suggesting.

If you look at your daily points (shown just below your selected team of jockeys and trainers) you can only achieve that total by adding the Coronation Cup points once and your Derby points twice.

They've now corrected everything and the points are all right. One effect has been the the fiso league has leapt from 25th overall to 23rd overall. :)

Plenty of action at Royal Ascot this week. Three races on Tuesday plus a race a day through to Saturday. Selections are open for Tuesday but the others can't be made until 48 hours before the off. Seems no point in picking Frankel at 1/5 :!:

Got on to this way too late so targetted the categories - 3rd in Sprint after the KS. But I find the points totally baffling can someone explain why for the KS trainers got the following points

Cowell 75 (3 runners)
Collet 20
Ryan 20 (2 runners)
balding 15
bell 10

All runners were unplaced. Its the same in other races with unplaced trainers/jockeys getting different points. What am i missing ?

Trainers and jockeys are in different categories and each trainer/jockey gets points for each runner and these vary depending on the category they are in.
