My take-
I think you miss the point Kodiak, while insignificant, and not a reason for the RR boys to complain, I do think everyone should play by the rules and I do think everyone is experienced to know better then to edit posts. If a mistake was made, just point it out below.
As for the line shopping, same reasoning, IMO. We got to play by the rules or risk disqualification.
Look, If the forum boys are winning, these matters have not in any way materially effected the outcome. But the fact remains, everyone needs to post timely, with agreed upon book odds without any edits.
As for how Ham handles communicating his points, IMO Ham is nothing short of a genius, both in his natural logical reasoning skills and his witty comedic side. We cannot all relate to that, and he has been known to step on a few toes, but in principal, I see solid logic behind all his gripes.
That being said, if the bases boys win, they have earned it.
