Fine with penalties. GW used to apply them. They were laid down in advance and 0.1c or 0.2c depending on how late. 

This is 0.7c is a figure seemingly plucked out of Frank H's hoop. 

Given how tight margins are, it effectively counts me out of the annual competition. For being 9 hours late. When that lateness made no difference to my entry (as you can see, I'm at exactly the halfway point of all entries). Is it really worth continuing?

As for February its looking very mild indeed now. And I for one look like getting burnt by the fantasy GFS easterly.

I was only late because I didnt have an internet connection, and 0.7 is excessive. I have participated since the start and have never received a penalty for being a few hours late.
