I would say 1 is the fairest.

After an oversight by myself, which I apologise for as it should have been stipulated better from the start, there are a few options:

1 - The 3 of us continue on until there’s a winner.
2 - donate all to charity
3 - open up to all again. Anyone can pay £10. Half to the pot. Half to charity. £115 added to the winners pot

With fairness and integrity a priority, I’d prefer 1 or 3.

Everyone who paid in deserves a say.

Thanks all

3, mate. Let's open it up again. Raise a few quid for charity and have a bit of fun. I've known these things to go on for ages. It always starts again if no last man standing. Nice pot for someone and decent dough for your worthwhile charity, pal

I think this is a very sensible option

The general rules of last man standing is it goes again if it goes bust so number 3 to me is the fairest , if anyone wants to go in again they can , happy to let others join too who didn’t partake as surely the more In the bigger pot for the charity so it’s a number three for me .

Option 1 from the 3 posted but why not this as an option?

Quote from: Barneylfc∗ on April 10, 2021, 07:55:10 pm

Or even split the pot between the 3 of you to start a new one next week.

I don't think option 3 should be considered. Only 3 got to week 4, so everyone else shouldn't get that pot.

Barneylfc∗ · « **Reply #165 on:** April 10, 2021, 11:07:07 pm »

Although just asked a couple of mates that do it. One of them is in 2 competitions.

First one said they roll the pot over and all back in.
Second said for 1 of them they do the rollover, and the other they split the pot between the last few if all knocked out at the same time.

Barneylfc∗ · « **Reply #166 on:** April 10, 2021, 11:15:26 pm »

I've changed my mind and voting for option 3.

When you're out you are out, and there is no one left standing so no winners. Roll over. Hardly any game weeks left

AndyInVA · « **Reply #167 on:** April 11, 2021, 12:07:24 am »

My 10 cents (as they say in the states)

Technically everyone did pick losers so I don’t thinks it right to hand out winnings.

I think the last three should get a free pass to the next round this time but new rules would have winners winning only.

Half of this pot goes instantly to charity. Half goes in to new pot.

Whatever you think is fair mate, I’ll go with that

Hard to predict the results this season

sameold · « **Reply #169 on:** April 12, 2021, 09:43:53 pm »

So in the interest in trying to find a winner, who’s up for going again? It seems to be the general consensus...

£5 to re-enter. £10 for newcomers. Half to the charity and half to the winners pot. £115 already in the pot.

All gameweeks will be used including midweeks. And no matter how many are left at the end of the season, prize money will be divided equally.

Who’s (back) in?

Barneylfc∗ · « **Reply #170 on:** April 12, 2021, 11:25:12 pm »

In effect a new contest so you pick from new , even teams you had previously chosen are back in the choice
