Itbox Tournament

Anyone on here posted a decent score on the current pyramids tournie?

Scoreboard is starting to look like Vaginalbobgate with the regulars in one Sheffield pub all seemingly the nuts at this game.

No, although I have noticed it. Is it confined to Enterprise Inns or somesuch? It's not a quiz game is it?

Yes is Enterprise inns only. It is basically solitaire a la format of triple towers.

Its completely pointless although did have a couple of cracks at it and with a week to go I think was in at #7 which must surely hold for at least £25. Think the top 50 cash but I am deeply sceptical from prevvious national tournaments that they ever contact you.

oh they will contact you, many years ago i won a couple of their S&D (sorry Cool, stand and deliver) super T tourneys and they sent the cheque, they phoned me up after the second one to check i wasn't a robot or something.

apologies for my ignorance but what are enterprise inns? can you point me towards one? i'd like to have a poke at it.

I've PMed you with a location which runs this game.

Dont tell him that'll make it harder for me. It had struck me that the other reason for the being lots of scores from the same pub is that there are actually only about 3 pubs in the country running the comp!

Anyway where have you pointed him to?

after the presentation Jamie Lee was dismayed to find that the prize of a holiday for two in Crete was just that.......... The two Zoo girls had a great time!

well the tournie seems to have closed with me sitting circa 7th place for a £50 cheque... let's see if the buggers actually phone me

good skills NM, let the board know if you don't hear back (but i'd be surprised).
