Well this is awkward but best just won because of the 50k bonus for not using your 1 chance. People wanted this bonus added a few seasons back. I didn't really add it with the intention of it affecting the outcome at the end of a season but I guess I should've expected that.

Up to you guys if we keep that bonus in going forward.

WHAT!!!!  I am outraged!!!!  Beaten on a technicality by someone who wasn't even trying to win!

Hahaha!  Och well the rules are the rules, dumb rules but still rules!!!  Obviously I say we get rid of this but I dare say if it was the other way round and I got the win because of this rule I'd be all for it!

@mikey yeah I hear ya kind of sucks because if you just sat back and played it safe and didnt bet you would've still won.


So what do people think should we remove that bonus completely? Lower the amount? Maybe only 10k instead of 50k? Should we get rid of the bonuses all together? Thoughts?

@poirer I'd get rid of all the bonuses altogether. 
Making it just straight betting skills. I'd also get rid of the last chance.  But that's just me.

@mikey sorry bud. I feel for u.

Damn, guess I didn’t read the rules either, I didn’t know this.  I’d say ‘remove the bonus completely’ & last chance too.
GJ to the top 4 ( bestscp68, dtrain24, ripple, mikey1903) & Phil with the lead that went all in & lost it all at the end. Tough break @mikey.

All I can say is Congrats bestscp68!  New Champ!

Can we keep the last chance but with a rules that you should re-give the amount you win + 10% at the end of the season? Like if the last chance is a bank loan?

I'd rather either keep it as is or scrap it all together I think

I would've kept the last chance but get rid of the bonus.

But I definitely say get rid of the 50k bonus. So If that means getting rid of the last chance then I'm for that

I voted No, for a few reasons. Firstly, it makes the game more realistic. Secondly, it removes the ability of players to hit lottery wagers and overtake people who have made better and lower value bets consistently. And thirdly last chance is just something else Poir has to think about and adds an extra dimension of administrative ****yness that he has to deal with.
