Vegas & The Aftermath - Diary

[tikay]

Just give mine to the Blonde coffers.   Failing that a big orange Mantis balloon flying over Blonde towers would be good.

Why are you multiplying by 1.05?  Don't people normally just add all returns and refunds and just divide by 100 to get 1%.   I have no idea how Mere used to do it though.   Guess that doesn't work well for those that have put in a fixed amount.

Hi David,

The 5% equates (approx....) to the 2 missed Tournaments. Bit of a weird way to work it out, but it's correct, I think.

Also, I noticed an error in the maths, as ($362 + $876 + $805) comes to $2,043, not $2,243 as stated, so the returns were overstated by $200. I'm going to leave them at the $2,243 I stated though, so at least the suffering Stakers got a little bit of value. As in they lost slightly less.....

Staking Returns are now being processed.

The following very kindly suggested their returns be paid to Reece or blonde running costs. These have all been paid to Reece, as follows;

horsey £17.77

booder £17.77

Marky147 £17.77

G2L £35.54

SteveSwift  £17.77

engy £17.77

Sue & Save £35.54.


That lot comes to £159.93.

As in past years, & not to bore you with the details, I have sent the money via Tom, as he has Reece's Bank Account details. The £159.93 will be with Tom by now, & Tom will conform that in due course.

Very kind of all of you, so on behalf of Reece, thank you.

doobs & Regards asked that their returns be put towards blonde running costs, thank you guys.

doobs had 2% & Regards had 3%, so that's 5%, = £88.85, gratefully received, thanks chaps.

[tikay]

I'll now start processing all the other returns.

I should be able to sort most of them today, & will confirm that later.

Won't be paying 1 or 2 of them though, as they grimmed me for the stake, so they ended up losing less than everyone else. Bastards.   

[tikay]

Yay, all the Staking Returns (except, see below) now paid, & should be with you now.

Need updated Bank Details from animalpoker please, the one I have is OOD.

2 players who each had 2% both got paid 2.5% as I got confused.  Treat yourself to something nice. Like a choc ice maybe.

Finally, 2 chaps, as far as I can tell, never paid, so I've not sent them a bean. Most satisfying, especially as one of them is a complete tosser. I probably owe him a few bob anyway, as I've purchased his action for years. Even got a return. Once.

So I think that's me up to date. Amy omissions or complaints, hit me up please.

Shame I could not get you guys a decent return this year, but I'm not gonna make any excuses, sometimes it just goes like that. As in, painful.

On we go.

[Chompy]

I had 1%, paid up front.

Let me know where I stand ta.

[tikay]

Let me know where I stand ta.

[tikay]

Chomps is, of course, incorrect.

He had 2% (TWO PER CENT) paid up front.

And I paid him £35.54 this morning, so we is square.

[tikay]

I miss Jeeves.

2% please ffs.

BUMP for those who don't keep records.

Bloody Mr Pie.

Hi Tikay looks like I’m one of the chosen ones who were paid too much. I was going to buy a iced mocha frappe but my conscious got the better of me. I have shipped the whole lot back. Can you send onto Reece please.

Cheers

You Sir, are a Gent, thank you.

Can confirm that I received the repayment, & have now sent it on, including the overpayment, to Reece. (via Tom, as explained yesterday).

Hi. Tosser here

So if I send you £171.56 for my 2% you have to send me £35.54 for your outstanding performance?

I guess the sensible thing would be for me to just send you £136.02 to square us up.

Absolutely zero chance you're having the satisfaction of not sending me anything though so you'll be getting the full amount. I'd like my return immediately please or I'll send the boys round.

PS: I owe you some money for something else that you will have almost definitely have forgotten about. Don't hold your breath for that one though.

booder knew.

The other debt you still owe me is £200 for a last longer, unless my memory is playing tricks.

PS - £136.02 safely received from "Blind Squirrel".

Hey I believe I owe you twice! Once for you and then once for bergeroo (who I paid for us initially) let me know where to send and I’ll square them both off tomorrow. Unlucky! I followed silently from Russia
