spoke to Lawrence today, he said he will not be overly anal about the weight, however,he obviously does not want the piss taken!!

i know this is a competition with emphasis on fun, but even still i will find it irksome to be beaten by a "heavy" rival what do you guys think?

I think it would be hugely petty to be bothered by being beat by someone weighing 105.8, for example. I cannot see 800g make a huge difference

That being said, it obviously would irritate a little, if someone weighed in at 105 dead and was beaten by someone weighing 109-110!!!

Personally, as long as I perform to my potential on all events, I will be happy

I agree 800g is not going to make a huge difference, but equally obviously you wouldn't let in somebody at 115, say. Where do you draw the line? It seems to me that, for an under-105 class, the line ought to be at 105.00 Grin.

It must be a particular issue for Maths teachers as I agree with Rickster - 100%

As Rick said, where do you draw the line 106kg, 107kg, 110kg?

If you have someone who simply misses the weight(for example 105.4kg), maybe they should be allowed to compete but just not get any prizes/trophies. A bit like competing as a guest. If they are anything around the 108kg+ mark then they haven't dieted hard enough and should be told to compete in the opens. But even with this, where do you draw the line?

maybe part of the problem is they cant get acess too some proper calibrated scales

or maybe not enough competitiors to be able to tell 2/3 people they are out because they are over by a kg or so

rules are rules, but common sense is also good

I think this is probably the reason. 105 competitors are thin on the ground this year.
