That then goes out to everyone who has 'followed' him (currently 1335 people)

1335 people see that tweet, and if there is something likeable they will retweet it to all their followers ... so @asfcofficial then forwards the message to 40,000 followers, @officialassc forwards it to 316 followers, @murraydawsonSDA forwards it to 718 followers, @RobRuss forwards it 21 followers etc etc
Thanks Rob, that does make sense, though I still won't be playing. Presumably if I followed @AndyHolt and @asfcofficial and @officialassc and @RobRuss my smartphone would go off 4 times in about 10 minutes with the same bit of info (if I had a smartphone that is)?

You've also made me wonder why at least 38600 people who never turn up at the Crown follow @asfcofficial
