Drunk Housekeeping

Occasionally I realise there are some things I haven't pointed out. Here are some that have occured to me:
COMMENTING ON POSTS
I had thought you didn't have to sign into this damn thing to simply comment on posts here, but seems they ask you all sorts of confusing questions if you're not. I think one option is commenting anonymously, so here's an idea: if you can't be fagged signing in, just do it anonymously and sign off with your name. Use someone else's name if you like.
MARGIN
The margin you're asked for while tipping is used as a tie-break. The smaller your total margin tally is at any stage during the year decides whether you sit above or below a Drunk on the same tipping score. We used to do it differently, with the Drunk with the most 8s taking the higher possie. But that was the good old days, this is now, it's not as good, but nothing ever is. Get used to it.
NON-TIPPING
In the old days we had the Sidey, or, for a year, the Trobby, as the default score for un-entered tips. This amounted to the same score as whatever the lowest score picked by a fellow Drunk was. GONE. I liked it because it's cruel but appropriate punishment.
You can't be fagged tipping, you can get on the ferry to Hell as far as I'm concerned.
But no, the new way, same as last year, means you get as a default the away teams. This unfortunately means you can do better sometimes by not placing your tips. How is this fair?
