@JakartaToon The new rule: is it saying we're have 3 weeks where we can have double points or 3 lots of 10 consecutive weeks or that once you've played one you can't play another one for 10 weeks?

You're right. The Double Points Play (DPP) is very confusing. It is hard to believe that a DPP could be confusing and incoherent on here!!
@JakartaToon 6. No copying (apart from Chippy) Does this mean that only Chippy is allowed to copy or that we are only allowed to copy Chippy? Asking for a friend.
You have 3 cards that you can play at any time. You will get double points for the next ten games after that card. Only put this in case I post up a weekend set and a midweek set at same time and someone thinks they can play a double points card and get them for all those fixtures. It would probably be @the #Cans Master.
Obviously its only Chippy is allowed to copy. Its not feasible to expect him to have the time to shag Pouchy’s wife and come up with 10 original predictions every week.
cheers Jak. JRG need to stop beelin and accept how things work around here. Lots of work goes into copying people. He can barely click the ‘post’ button. So screw hom. He collects stamps.
Can you play your card on a Saturday night to get the Sunday games and then the following games next week to make it up to ten? Could you even take it a step further and play your card midway through a day to get the late games after the early games have kicked off? If either of the above are allowed, what happens if, say, you get 2 late Saturday games, 4 Sunday games, a Monday night game and then 6 games kick off early the following Saturday? Who would decide which three of the final Saturday games counted towards the ten? Have you thought this through Jak? Have you? I mean really thought it through? You know Trev will find a way of cheating the system and then putting in an appeal for more points than he deserves. You'll get bogged down in appeals and trying to work out which games count.
You make an innocent post which gets turned into WW 3 due to poor use of the English language by the Manc and even weeks later your character is still being assassinated. Disgusting post JRG, quit beelin’ as the Spelling Bee would say. I’m sure the Manc will make the rule crystal clear so that we all are able to understand it.
