Maybe we could up the minimum betting stipulation to at least 5 bets a month?

 

[Philby]

I'd be fine with upping the limit.

How about "at least 4 per month" (roughly 1 per week) and each competitor can play one mulligan if they happen to miss out one month?

Updated the T&Cs above.

If anyone has any objections or other suggestions for the comp then sling them on the table for rigorous assessment by Sunday evening.

Four bets placed at one time qualifies you for the month?

Four bets placed at one time qualifies you for the month?

Yes, four individual bets placed at any time in the month.

We'll leave it to people's discretion (...and sense of shame) to avoid sub-1pt nuisance bets just to hit the monthly threshold.
