Thumper........

Oddly enough I was going to post something this morning to the effect of "you do an incredible job and it seems that the only time you get told that is when somebody points out a mistake and then adds.....but you are doing an incredible job."

So I will have to save THAT post for another morning.....because it turns out that I do have a question this time.

Yesterday the lines went up late.....and before they went up, Stump posted his plays.....unsure of what the posted line would be. In his post he copied and pasted the -1.5 lines as well as the money line. When the lines went up, his post was copied & pasted into the picks thread (I assume by a moderator). Now I realize that if a post includes the totals line and the money line the post is invalid.....but in this case he copied the money line and the runs line....and since the runs line is never part of the contest, there should have been no ambiguity in the post. Since the post was copied by a mod, that would seem to validate the play.

Sooooo.......(and I admit I have an agenda here because I have been chasing Stump all season)......I'm wondering if his plays yesterday should have counted (?)

Oh....and by the way....

You are doing an in-CRED-ible job !!!!

There were a few other times that the ML's were put in by accident and people had copy/pasted them in. Since hey were up late to start, I would say to let it stand. Since we never use ML's, it is understood that they wouldn't count.

Thanks for pointing it out, I didn't noticed it was the RL. It was overlooked, I was thinking it was both lines which would make the plays invalid.

Sorry about that Stump, I'll have your plays added before tonights grading goes up.
