LeMale got a reaction from Xcout in NAPS COMPETITION - PROPOSED NEW RULES VOTE
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.)

LeMale got a reaction from Kingdom for in NAPS COMPETITION - PROPOSED NEW RULES VOTE
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)

LeMale reacted to harry_rag in NAPS COMPETITION - PROPOSED NEW RULES VOTE
The trigger for having the vote is that there will no longer be any bookies offering BOG the night before. The thing that is not realistic is the ability to take a price before BOG is available with any bookies (whether the night before or first thing in the morning) but still have BOG apply to the selection. As a fun competition there is no obligation for the rules to be ultra-realistic but the issue has been raised to see what people think.
With around 56% of the votes so far (if my quick tot up is correct) it looks like the status quo will prevail which is obviously fine. If that creates an edge that doesn't exist in real life (taking a price early but still getting BOG) then it's an edge that's available to everyone should they wish to try and exploit it.
I favoured scrapping BOG from an authenticity perspective (not available to me with most firms) but there's a lot to be said for leaving things as they are if the majority of people prefer to retain BOG rather than ditch it altogether. So unless my #banthebog Twitter campaign gathers unexpected momentum it looks like it will be very much "as you were" but we've all had a bit of fun wagging our jaws and arguing the toss!

Yes bummer - I have account with Bet365 - Coral - W Hill and Skybet -(never use for multiples due to no BOG) - I thought I had a place also till I checked that W Hill only did 3 places on that race - guess where I placed this bet ??
I will have to be more careful in future - I went for the 28/1 instead of 25/1 and got stung 😀

£3.56 from trixie and £1.60 from singles gets enough for a pint....i think!
Alhabor unplaced, Tathmeen 2nd and NS 2nd. Both were getting there NS should have won, jockey knew it, but hey-ho.
