Yes whats happening Wizz? Interest is flagging a bit without regular updates. Are you onboard still or alienated with the divisive infighting re late entry attempt etc. Who needs that especially when you are donating your time and effort. Be great to know if this comp is alive still.Thanks JT.
Slight update:
CMM - Gold play trading at 6.8c, major shareholder just turned down 11.4c takeover offer
NTC - undervalued telecommunications equipment provider, takeover soon imo
LPE - energy for apartment units
SMN - structural health monitoring for airplanes
UBI - test strips for medical devices (below their soon to be cash backing)
NTC being taken over.
UBI will get a takeover offer Friday imo - have scheduled a very late “half yearly results presentation” after agreeing with Siemens not to touch the 29c-ish per share cash they have.
CMM takeover very soon as well - a small shareholder bent on accepting a previous takeover offer has managed to seize control of the board with the MD and CFO resigning today.
I have been a bit tardy myself. wizAlvin has been waiting for me to decide I think.
We never had issues like this in the past. People would respect the rules and it seemed to be clear.
This year we have had a couple of genuine mistakes which were let in then some others who just simply were late.
This is run slightly differently in the nz comp, They have an earlier end date with about a weeks worth of fix my fat fingering, late entries etc etc. It is a subtle difference but an important one I think.
I think we have made the mistake of fixing a later date with no extra week for lates, mistakes etc etc. It is unfair to not enforce the rules however. It is damned if you do and damned if you dont in this instance.
At the back of my mind all along is that the numbers are diminishing in this competition over the last few years and I do not know why.
I have stuffed this up this year and I will quit running this after this year. Any volunteers?
shrewdcrude has his original picks in
shrewdcrude late crypto changes out(because they were late)
lissica made a genuine mistake in
rabbi is late out
darkhorse made a genuine mistake in
bermuda is very late out
the outs can be in but not in the prize pool.
what pisses me off are the ones who come in late and promptly send money off to the prize pool.
