Found 4 Drafts from the 8th March in my Gmail bin. Must have been a laptop or Gmail problem. Would post the screenshot but the flickr app isn't very helpful for forum links.

Gather up all the info, forward it and I'll take a look at it mate.

Sent an email to the usual address.

Damm, pretty dissapointed with my choice, but hey ho, all part ofthe fun.

Good work as always dj.

Northern Light.

Probably the worst one I've had so far.

No £50 attachment so failed to open, just sayin....

Personally, I'm ashamed mine scored two... But on the plus side this was a hard round! (My local had no Mikeller alight and the viking beer the gf would have been amazing by if it existed in our little world)

DJ, I might have to be over in Norn Iron come the last round, nothing to do with the final scores or anything...

Let me know mate

Bah. Didn't get round to this. I planned on going to the store this morning but couldn't. Had a Bud Light last night too at a friends house but didn't use it because I thought someone else would. Argh

Agreed, cheers DJ.

The_Abyss How lucky were you that my Tesco didn't have any of those on the shelf today

I took a punt and changed tactics from choosing obscure beers to something that's dead common (around these parts anyway!). Phew - joker round too!

Mine was a main supermarket purchase so to only clash once I suppose is a bonus.

Kuros · 13 Mar 2016 at 10:16

Well, for me, Artisan light ale was without a doubt the worst drink I've ever had the displeasure of drinking. Must have been a reason for it being 75p in the local asda.

Well having spent the night thinking about this I have decided to let the present result stand, no entry and therefore no points.

I do genuinely believe that you had a valid entry and for whatever reason it wasn't sent. Sent is the key word here, it is something that you alone can check and it's completely different from say a failed delivery.

Sorry mate

Anchundan · 13 Mar 2016 at 10:57

I always BCC myself, so I know if I receive it, it's definitely sent!

Good idea

I think me judge probably feels harsh making the call. I think it'd be different if it could be proven it was emailed before the deadline.

FAO: deej

You have now twice entered two rounds in a single email. Luckily both times I have already entered by beers (not sure if this is why you're doing it). Will you please follow the rule of a single email for every entry.

If you enter 2 or more again and I've not entered that weeks, I will have no option than to give you zero points.

Cheers

Russinating · 13 Mar 2016 at 11:16

This was the hardest round so far, so happy I got 5! I went into so many offys and up until about 5pm on Friday all I had was a Corrs.

I'm surprised nobody had the one I entered as well.

Gilly · 13 Mar 2016 at 11:17

Yes I struggled too.

R-evans · 13 Mar 2016 at 11:28

DJ, was what I sent you enough proof to show I attempted to send my entry on time?

Still unable to send my entry again until later this evening as it's on my laptop.

EDIT: Ha, just seen the above comment. No worries. I would say it's not much different to the problem the guy had while skiing, but ok.

It's the fact that it wasn't actually sent is the problem. If it had been mailed but not received then that is different.

I know this maybe feels harsh and trust me I don't like doing it, but I have to be fair to the others who are playing and entered their beers.

What happens if someone else forgets, where do I draw the line?

If anyone believes I being unreasonably harsh about this, please feel free to voice it.

R-evans · 13 Mar 2016 at 11:57

I thought the draft from Tuesday which appeared 4 times in my bin shows something obviously went wrong with Gmail when I hit send. I guess I should have checked but every other entry arrived fine so I didn't think there'd be a problem.

I am fine if that's your decision, although I no longer agree with the ski guys been counted, even though I was one of the first people to support his error.

Sorry I was typing and missed this edit.

It is different. Russinating had mailed the entry but it arrived late (after the results has been posted). More info here.
