Re: Withdraw not counting as score posted in ready go

  Just a quick question, did a brief forum search and couldn't find this answered anywhere else. So if someone is marked as WD in a ready go, they have withdrawn, correct? I don't think this has ever changed. In the ready go I have played in earlier today, 29 people have posted numeric scores and there have been 20 withdrawals (so 49/50 scores are 'submitted', parsay). So why on the top of the leaderboard does it say 29/50 scores posted? Shouldn't it be 49/50, as a withdraw is technically posting a score and can't be changed?

  Adding on to this question, say the 50th person in my ready go submits a score (so 30/50 numeric scores, 20 WDs, but all 50 scores are submitted). Will the tournament award its payout then or will it wait until the end of the submission period?

  wd's don't count in the final tally and after 30 there are no payouts so when you see 49/50 and there are in the end 20 wd's the payout is top 30 and with there only being 29 who have posted , as to the submission period nothing gets paid out before the 12 hrs has expired ,      well that's  what i have noticed so far but i could be missing something, the 49/50 you see is players who have entered but not to say all have posted a score, in the end its only those who have actually posted a score weather it be all 50 or only some of the 50

  1. My point is the people who have WD marked on the leaderboard have withdrawn, right?

  2. If so, why doesn't that count as a posted score? It's not like they can finish their round.

  3. As for when payouts occur, I'm just confused by the language on the leaderboard saying 'max time left before ending'; it seems to imply that it could possibly end earlier. I would assume that once all the scores are posted and WGT gives it a check they would just pay out. Unless it used to be this way and WGT changed it to 12 hours all the time and just forgot to edit this out.

  1. Correct

  2. It´s not a posted score because they haven´t posted a score, they have withdrawn. It does however count for a completed attempt at that tournament

  3.An RG will settle early if all 50 players have had their attempt at that tournament, either by posting a score or withdrawing

  a lot of times players will enter a tournament and not play it right away,it's posted as an entry NP ,but not as a final score ,so they give it some time for these players to complete it and post a score before the payout can begin,if they fail to post  they are considered WD,
