Missing an A grade event is worth "half a loss". So Simon would have to lose sunday and not turn up to two A grade events (I'm informed but can't find the website that South Island champs is only one A grade day). Also if Simon only losses to one person on Sunday and that person doesn't go to the next two events either...then he hasn't lost to them, so he doesn't lose the shield. He does lose to everyone when he doesn't turn up to 4 in a row. But anything less depends on his competition.
I'll explain it better when I get some time, but basically if you turn up and race your better off.

due to certain people from auckland not attending i would place my money on simon, although the pressure of holding such a title may case him to falter. Watch ciaran as a dark horse (neil note the spelling of ciaran).
girls will be close, too close to call
i hope that everybody is going to do the mountain bike rogaine

there are no betting type persons involved in orienteering. It is a clean, wholesome sport full of fine upstanding characters like Neil Kerrison, not full of gamblers or drinkers or Exclusive Brethren.
Students missing provincial championships because of exams? Well, that's a new one.
