Okay, I'm not serious about this game.
It's a little piece of fun.
And on the Cellar we didn't specify rules; in fact I remember objecting to a late entry before and being over-ruled.

However.
We used to play at work, for money.
£1 in the pot (metaphorically speaking) winner on points won the pot.
One joker to be played every year (under 50 or Clive Dunn).
Lists fixed by 1st January no changes no substitutions.
The best year came to about £12 as I recall - high stakes indeed! No, I never won.

Now I know that is not how we play here.
But my knee-jerk reaction is still that if someone is working on information received after 01.01.12, then they have an unfair advantage.
Of course it's not for money, and not even for bragging rights on here.

So I let it go. Have at it.
I just wanted to explain my reaction.
It's like going to someone's house where you win money on No Parking in Monopoly.
What, wait? You do it that way?
