Suspended Sun 1st Jun 2008 9:46am PST by mork: Suspended pending settlement

Settlement requested Sun 1st Jun 2008 9:46am PST by mork: June has arrived (market suspended)

Unsuspended Sun 1st Jun 2008 10:51am PST by nigeleccles: Compete doesn't update until at least 7 days after the month end there I have unsuspended this one.

Clarified Sun 1st Jun 2008 10:54am PST by nigeleccles: Just realised we are using ComScore data for this one. They didn't release their data until the 15th last month so I think the original suspend date is fine.

It's now the 3rd week of June. This should either settle (I can't find a relevant link) or void.

The last sentence in the article I believe is what we were waiting for but not totally sure.
