    I’d be very surprised if an ASX dividend or not was the difference to doing well in the comp... from history as. one needs least one pick to boom 100%+ now dividends not much yield on the ASX think 9% is about as high as your find

    Only thought of that one as last year I almost got caught out when my 1c stock dipped below threshold prior to opening and created confusion (for me at least)

    i do not know why this is a rule other than it was a rule before i started helping out and it was carried forward - does anyone know?

    dividends are put in - at end of year - occasionally mid year - the only real problem is collecting them manually - 300+ dividends manually hence done once or twice

    if not in by that date bad luck you are out - plenty of notice given

    Don't mind either way re dividends if easier leave them out
    if rule 11 then that is when the grace period is usually given - 1 / 2 days to correct or next alphabetic ticker given - BUT rule 11 has NOT YET been included - these are a SUGGESTION for discussion 2 months before end of year

    there is some form of memory that the prior person running the competition - possibly shrewd-crude - was hand calculating and it took forever - or - perhaps it was thought that 0.1 cent to 0.2 cent (100% gain) was too easy. anyone know?

    The late great Duncan McGregor played with that idea on the NZX comp but I dont think that it paid off.

    on the subject of 1 cent margin - because i use software it is straight forward and relatively easy to handle any form of difference such as the guests above.
    if required it is possible to organise categories
    such as below 1c; 1c and above; and the like .
    it makes no real problems in the computations.
    it may be a problem in reality if a 0.1 cent becomes 1 cent or above that is an outstanding rise.
    as i do not trade these - not my concern.
    this is just a thought to the competition entrants that a separate division is possible . as is a combined one .

    over to the group

    I won it with TRS at .1c ..
    It finished the year on .2cents and I was the only tipper up...
    It must have been in 2007 or 2008
