That is only true if the point count is reset completely whenever you get a point score of greater than or equal to zero - if you will recal, my analysis for people turning in turns made no mention of what order a player gets the wins in - a player coming in 5th, 5th, 3rd, then 5th is functionally identical to that same player coming in 3rd, 5th, 5th, 5th or 5th, 5th, 5th, 3rd. Likewise, timezone issues (as Fyron mentioned) can seriously slant someone's order chances.

Timezones are fairly permanent states, and could concievably cause such things.

There are no timezone differences of 72 hours!
If someone in one timezone is alone there and therefore submitts Last, he has the chance of being first in the next turn!
There are a net inflow of zero points unless two or more misses a turn, if there are 5 or less players the system will be abandonded. ( I haven't fully set myself into your calculations, Sorry, will do that later... )

The "free timeperiod" was a good idea, say 48 hours free period and counting negatives only in the Last 24?

Also, the supporters of poo on the stick seems loud, this might be the winning idea!
(As noone seems to be positive to the "turn submission league" I'll drop it )
