If I win it, I chuck it in the litigation slush fund anyway, so it is only the fun of the game for me.

I also am in the comp for a bit of fun. My chances are winning anything are somewhere between nought and zero.

Whatever the rules say has to be accepted.

How are you going to lock in the price when it's in a trading Halt @divs4ever? ----- or do you mean once it comes out, next week?

well unless there is an announcement earlier lifting the TH the price will not rise or fall , unlike many others
at the open being in a TH looks like a negative , many rivals may rise , but the CLOSE is what counts , and much can happen in a trading day
next month that is a different issue somebody may be inconvenienced by the TH

Ticks off folllowing :
Mum,
All the wifes who didn't take me to the cleaners,
My first teacher Mrs O'Shea,
Chartists everywhere,
Australian Institute Of Company Directors for assistance in making Australia just behind Syria a bastion of good Corporate Governance.
Board of PEN,
Taylor Swift,
Mum again,... unconditional love.
Fellow members of ASF,
Richard Goyder and Alan Joyce,
Oh how bitter sweet if @Dona Ferentes ' dog gets a takeover offer within the next 4 hours.
All the best to the 3 or 4 stocks which overtake me this afternoon to leave me counting chookless.
And then for CVN next month.

At the moment @Garpal Gumnut PEN is about 56% so he looks pretty safe for a win, at the moment.
Well, we all know @noirua BUX is stuck on 40% today and that won't change.
The other one in the mix that is close to BUX for 2nd or 3rd Place is @bux2000 BOE which is hovering around that 40% also. Bouncing a fraction over and under that level as I text. Going to be close for 2nd & 3rd.

End of the September Monthly Tipping Competition. Not a good month for the market with the XSO down -4.70% while the ASF Team Average did a lot better only being down -1.21% for the month.
1st Place: @Garpal Gumnut PEN 59.34% had a great week up 31.82% to be on top of the podium at the end of the month
. Congratulations GG, that takes you up to 3 monthly Comp wins 
.
Thank god @peter2 got in early and pinched CVN off him, I guess he must be due for a $ or two
.
2nd Place: @noirua BUX 40% was in a Trading Halt today and just had to watch BOE jump above and below him all day but in the end grabbed 2nd Place. Well deserved after a strong month.
3rd Place: @bux2000 BOE 39.77% also had a good month and was unlucky to only get 3rd Place, he had 2nd until the last minute of the day.
@sptrawler PDN 30.18% came in 4th Place, another good effort. I'll leave it there as @Joe Blow will be along shortly to make it all official.
Thanks everyone for another entertaining month. Good luck for next month and don't forget to enjoy your weekend Folks.

Oh did you have to mention that / remind me !? Lol oh that time ages ago in a shopping centre walking along & stepped on a fresh green 100 note! - but didn't think of bending down to pick it up so as not to look desperate lol haha
only for a beautiful woman walking my way to do so lol (gave me a cheeky smile in the process as if to say too bad it's mine now finder's keeper's).Still waiting for that second chance of seeing another green note on the floor somewhere/anywhere lol haha but guess karma was good to me since as misplaced/lost my wallet, phone & car keys etc. numerous times and have always had them returned back to me (last count 7 times at least lol).

Congratulations to the three worthy winners of this month's comp, though i would have liked to be one of them.
As much as I have tried, I could not source a trumpet or bugle player to annouce the winner of the lowest rung on the ladder.
So without further ado, to Dona your trophie await you, the much cherished Wooden Spoon and the Certificate of Do Much Better Next Month.
