Well, Hell's Teeth, Strike-a-Light, and Blind Old Jacob, (to borrow a few of my Mother's favorite expletive's), you are absolutely right Pip.

I was being so careful to add an hour because of British Summertime that I did it Twice. (And had to delete a lengthy post about BST/GMT/MA time in which I attempted to show that it was you who was wrong.. lol)

Which is a bit worrying, as I was sure there were other teams out there in the process of posting their entries...

Having re-read the initial post with the mob-list and the time frame, it is conceivable that there is ambiguity: The time stated is clearly "12:00" but Hurrikane does make reference to a "Tuesday night/Wednesday morning changeover".

Some people may have read into this that the cut-off point was midnight.

Of course, anyone keeping up with the posts in this thread would have seen it stated clearly that 12:00 today was the deadline...

So, I am inclined to allow any late entries at this point, but let's see what people think...

To All WPS Teams:

If you have entries, Post them here quickly, please. I may be forced to allow them in the interests of competition.

If you had a WPS team, but have failed to acheive all 5 globals, please post here stating that this was the case, so we know.

WPS WoF England 2009 Team, If you have strong objections to the above please also post. Technically at this point you have won Round 3... but you also have a few hours in which to improve your scores if you wish.


It could well turn out that every other team had problems getting that elusive Kingfisher Old global. Rest assured that Round 4 does not feature anything quite so tricky, but should prove much fun, nonetheless...

WoF England had recently noticed the midnight ambiguity...

Hurrikane's post does seem to imply a midnight deadline, and your post yesterday was a bit late to change deadlines really. Given the situation, it'd be unreasonable of us to object to the deadline being extended back to midnight I think.

Probably wouldn't have been so much of an issue if there was a 48hr rule though <cough> <laugh>

[First post also suggests posting entries in another thread, is it OK not to repost now that you've accepted our entry here?]

[Chopper]

Thank you Jimmy - the voice of reason, sanity and fairness, as ever.

Any entries submitted up til midnight tonight MA Time (1am tomorrow UK), will be accepted, and this includes WPS WoF England 2009 entries which improve your score, provided all rules concerning mob/location/team etc are adhered to..

I am going to give some serious thought to the "48 hours to post your screenies" rule for future rounds... It's not exactly a tough deadline to meet, it would keep the thread alive, and keep the competition alive. Teams who thought they had turned in a decent score would have to reconsider when they see another team turn in something better. They would have the Opportunity to improve their scores, and the winner would still not be certain until the very end, so the excitement is not lost...

SO...

Round 3 ends at Midnight tonight (Tuesday 15th July 2008).

Results will be posted a few short hours later...

Round 4 will commence at Midday sharp on Wednesday 16th, and may include the 48 hour rule



Reply to Edit:

There was a "Post your screenies here" Thread, used in the first round...

Bit pointless really, I'd rather see all round 3 screenies posted in the Round 3 thread, call me odd.

I was careful to check that no-one posted round 3 entries there, and they haven't, quite correctly in my humble opinion.

Feel free to edit out your screenies from earlier, I acknowledged that they were valid, but under the circs I have no objection to you removing them, and posting again later...

Good luck improving on those scores

It didn't seem very likely. Presumeably that's what made me stop and check, with my cursor hovering over the Submit Reply button...

Thanks, as I understand the rules, if we did get more we could just repost higher ones which would override the original screens?

You certainly can, that is correct. The first global you posted had the entire team on it, so that is the one which confirms who the members are. After that feel free to post as many Improving scores as you like. The best 5 will be used in the end, provided they were all obtained by members of that original team.

Even that Phasm global from the first screen could be improved upon, as your team is already registered...

Makes sense?

Yeah cheers Chopper, that's what I assumed but I was going to check it for next month's competition anyway

[Jimmy B]

Couple of improvements:


198 PED Phasm Young


256 PED Kingfisher Young


60 PED Kingfisher Mature

Total: 738
