4th round of sportsmanship rankings

note Jon Smith is now using ancient british after he was called a wuss for not taking it in the first place... 

This round is based on submission of army list and its accuracy. And takes into account the time wasted by the list checker in trying to sort things out/understand the list submitted. Players scored 5 points if the army list was correct, other scores are explained below.

jon smith 5+bonus for bring ancient brits 4+25=34

marco baroni 5+ 26=31

nick Hewitt 5+ 26=31

john muir 5+23=28

 Ian mackay 5+ 21=26

roger greenwood 5+21=26 

paul dawson 5+ 21=26

george Dick -2+26=24 slight sporting error and just needs to work out which is earlier 460bc or 490bc

neil Howard 5+ 12=17

David Morrison -2+18=16

slight sporting error..... but nevertheless

Dave Redhead 5+11= 16

Bob amey -5+10=5

Too experienced to make the schoolboy errors he did...

robert taylor -10 + 9 = -1

He attempted to sneak in a dominate roman army list simply by putting the word principate at the top of the list! Then tried to blame the event organiser for rushing him. Time wasted by list checker on a friday night .....

more round updates in the coming days....
