Hi Big E
A question?
4 players have whacked a bomb.
1 player received 12 points
3 players received 0 points.
Why no points for the other 3?

Hi, Peter

I mentioned Catfish's 12 just in passing; the other players will get their points at the totting up.

But you have illuminated an anomaly (say this after a beer) I hadn't thought of: what to award a player who's whacked a bomb but who hasn't scored anything so far... and I think the fairest way to address this is to give the whac-a-bomb a nominal and middling value of four points for a new unrated player. This means that if that player goes on to whack another bomb (as indeed HW3 has done in this game) they will simply get a doubling of that nominal score of 4.

Here's the state of play so far:

Bomb at post 1411: Catfish gets 12 for his previous whack at post 1400
Bomb at post 1421: Buddababy gets 10 for his previous whack at post 1414
Bomb at post 1443: HW3 scores 4 (no previous whacks)
Bomb at post 1460: Peter gets 14 for his previous whack at post 1451
Bomb at post 1478: HW3 gets 8 for his previous whack at post 1444

I can't see any holes in that (unless HW3 cuts up rough about it) but please forward any comments to the management up the usual tree

"(unless HW3 cuts up rough about it)"

No problem from me about it. I just haven't been on here in time to catch any of the others to whack.
