I'm sorry and i might be in the minority here, but i really don't see why all of a sudden, because one bookmaker amends their timing rules for BOG, why we are looking to make such a huge change to this competition. BOG is a part of betting, but if bookies decided to scrap it completely, then i can understand why it would need to be scrapped here, but it hasn't. Settling all bets at SP would, imo, be awful for this competition and unrealistic. I'm a strong believer in the saying "If it ain't broke, don't try and fix it!" so BOG should stay as is, or from 10am on the day, but it should not be scrapped from this comp while it is still available in the real world. 
The order that they are set out from 1-4 IS the order i would vote:- 
Option 1 (my vote)
Option 2 (if the time thing is really that important would be my second vote) 

Good day lads laid out £43 in £45 😂😂😂roll on tomorrow £32 of that was my bet I didn’t put up 😂😂 finger out boys 😂see you all same time tomorrow morning 💰💰💰👍👍

It was 1 of 2 of my L15 leftovers the other one had Diligent Harry as my only winner..

I hope "Bet365 scrapping BOG" is not what you mean and that you're talking about not offering BOG the day before?? If so, this now means no bookie offers it so, why are we in the Naps comp? Well, not that it effects me but, i thought this was still in place for all the members that are unable to post on the day because of work commitments. (or other reasons) Would seem a bit harsh on them imo. Other than that, what "current rules" do you think are unrealistic? It wasn't too long ago that you amended them. (Mclarke- No matter how i write or however many times i alter what i write, it always seems to come across that i'm being arguementative! I hope you know that this is not the case.)

Gold soak wins pays £32 for double down to use now got all back come on lads 👍👍

One of me own might have chance 🤞

Opps !

What a prat !
I told you I'm not used to these multiple bets

Tried that kept hitting the wall 🎯😂😂

Perhaps you should get the darts out like @BBBC 😁

Day off for good behaviour ….
I’ve still been around - I’m one of life’s unflushables - doesn’t matter how many times you flush the chain I will bob back up to the surface.  Had decent nap yesterday. And cleaned up on the Toon smashing the hammers @LEE-GRAYS  but not had any lucky 15s since last weekend. Couldn’t get 4 I fancied as prefer each way with extra places or wins between 4/1 and 10/1.
Reckon today could be the day though … (queues up 4 losers)

In fairness to you Micheal yes initially you showed a bit of snobbery but at least you didn't just dismiss the argument and had enough curiosity to investigate further and change a bit of your thinking and even set this thread up, it is far too easy for people to be dismissive if they have held the same views pretty much all their lives, i know at least one bloke that flatly refuses to acknowledge the use of computers and therefore the changing times. My main argument with modern day betting is don't waste data and or undervalue the amount of work that you do. The bookies use every tool (including your "trackers") and to beat them we must also use every tool available and that may well be more than one approach.

Yep, I'm probably one of the "snobs" although I do have L15s on the TV racing, nothing very scientific, I just pick the extra place races and then pick the horse on BET365 that is above 5/1 that is best priced on BET365. Not very scientific but there's a bit of logic to it and it gives me an interest in the TV races.
To be honest probably my most enjoyable win was a 10p 6-4-1 back in the 80s that paid £300

Agreed and it’s time to fight back I’m determined to make a profit 🍷🍷this Easter come on lads this thread needs you 💰💰

I have always detected a bit of ermm snobbery on here (PL) regarding lucky 15's. This thread proves they have a place in betting and that place is surprisingly simple. We all know the best/easiest way to win on betting on horses is the singles bet and that will always be true i suppose but it is obvious that you wont get very far with £1 ew on singles so you have to be brave and sure to bet to high stakes.
I will reiterate that lucky 15's are a good way to have an interest in the days racing especially now we have so much televised racing, old school suggest you should concentrate on one race per day for having a bet, well that was sound advice before all the TV coverage and computers but now we can watch, process and have access to so much information these days that "old school" no longer applies. I have two accounts the first one is for my serious betting that involves all the work i do each day on my speed figures and my bets range from £5 to £200 bets depending on how strong i view my figures in respect to the race in question. Now because i have so much "excess" data i decided not to waste it so instead of ignoring it i use it in following ways Forecasts, Tricasts and lucky 15/31/63 bets to small stakes and that is my point, most folks do not have the time to sift and sort all the information available so would never be able to formulate a strong opinion. However most people in that category still like to have a bet and would be fools to throw big money on what in effect would be a guess so the Lucky's are ideal for most of these punters, anyone that ever worked in a bookies will tell you that the average bet they take is around £3-£5. Yes we all knew that one bloke that has £50 or a £100 on a horse or dog and tells everyone when it wins and keeps very quiet when it loses. Micheal has said above "no wonder the bookies are so profitable" and that is true but they would make far more money out of punters if they the punters chucked £20 £30 £50 quid on horses they picked from anything less than educated and well researched data/information. For information purposes although i haven't made many large sized (only 10) bets since the flat finished I have made quite a bit of money with lucky 15's throughout the winter with that "excess" data which otherwise would have laid dormant until the flat got going again.
So for me the more that join this L15 thread the merrier, i really hope someone hits a big one or even one that just gets them a holiday or pays the gas bill or like the cash out kid @LEE-GRAYS a bokkul of wine.🍷 😁

Stats can lie - I have never managed to make a profit betting long odds on shots in my lifetime - however by being slightly choosy and with some luck you can make some profit from longer odds shots. Look at your thread for instance ODDS ON SELECTIONS TRIAL - has this ever made you a decent profit ???? No matter how hard you try.
By being selective to a degree however and with some decent luck odds prices 10/1-to over 100/1 have made me and others some decent profit in the long run.
Try a system by following all punters selections on the naps table over a period of time - say 1 month ( can paper trade if you like - but I find that actual small stakes cash will give a truer reflection)
- then take out all the non profitable punters - remove all the odds on selectors also - keep all the regular winners  that show a profit - see how you get on.
Adjust every month - take out non profitable punters - replace with some that perform better - rinse and repeat - works for me most times.
Keep stakes small and have a hardcore of around 20 that you follow daily - see how you get on.
Sorry to ramble on - giving away trade secrets - I may have to develop another system to replace - but getting on in years so not such a big deal for me.😀
Hope the above will give some clues/assistance to other punters on here - however I will stay away from odds on shots for the duration. 

Anyone quoting authenticity needs to consider authenticity in the context of the competition and not necessarily re bookies and betting in the real world, i say this because in effect the comp is as authentic as a nine bob note because where in the real world do 30+ out of 90 people bet on 100+ shots on the 27th 28th 29th 30th of the month? In effect the Naps comp is more akin to a fantasy football comp. Its a bit of fun that all people can have a go at at no cost. To support my argument try putting a rule in that says you have to prove you backed your nap to a fiver and see how many pick 66/1+ naps. Lets keep it as it is, a fun comp and just give everyone an equal chance of winning and like i and others have said if it isn't broken don't fix it.

No offence taken. I should have clarified BET365 scrapping BOG the night before. Members can still post the night before but will not be eligible for BOG, they either take the price or accept SP.
