    Formula 1 Sweepstake Game - BRITAIN - 11/07/10

    On the WEDNESDAY before each race I will post up an excel spreadsheet from which your randomly chosen driver(s) will be revealed.
    There are 24 drivers competing in the 2010 F1 season, however, the spreadsheet contains 25 slots.
    24 of the slots quite obviously contain the 24 drivers’ names. The other slot contains the SAFETY CAR.

    Anyone is welcome to join the game at any time.
    There is no limit to the number of players, only the number of F1 drivers !

    Points will be awarded to players as follows:
    At the end of each race, players holding the names of the points scoring driver(s), (the first ten finishers), will score the SAME amount of points that are awarded to their named driver(s)…..

    1st = 25pts
    2nd = 18pts
    3rd = 15pts
    4th = 12pts
    5th = 10pts
    6th = 8pts
    7th = 6pts
    8th = 4pts
    9th = 2pts
    10th = 1pt
    The player holding the SAFETY CAR will have 20pts ADDED to their total if the SAFETY CAR IS deployed during the race.
    However they will LOSE 20pts from their total if the SAFETY CAR is NOT deployed during the race.

    WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO
    Each day between Wednesday and Friday before each race, players may pick and post ONE number between 1 and 25 here on the game thread (first come first served).
    Players may continue to pick/post ONE number each day (first come first served) until ALL the numbers have been allocated.
    Players may NOT post retrospectively, ie if a player fails to pick/post a number on, say, Wednesday, they CANNOT pick/post two numbers on Thursday.
    Only ONE number can be picked each day.

    I will then PM (or Email) you 2 PASSWORDS.....the first (SHEET PASSWORD) will give you access to the Excel spreadsheet, and the second (NUMBER PASSWORD) will correspond to the number you have chosen.
    Open the spreadsheet (attached below) and copy and paste the NUMBER PASSWORD into the appropriate cell and your driver's name will be revealed.

    At the end of each race I will post an updated Results and Leaders Table.
    The player who has amassed the most points at the end of the season will win an Amazon Voucher.


    IMPORTANT....PLEASE NOTE
    Select 'READ ONLY' if prompted.....this shouldn't prevent you from pasting your PASSWORDS into the spreadsheet to reveal your drivers.

    I would also suggest that if you get the 'DO YOU WANT TO SAVE CHANGES MADE....' prompt when you EXIT the spreadsheet, you click 'NO' in response.
    If you click 'YES' and haven't deleted your PASSWORD from the sheet, then other people who subsequently access it will see your PASSWORD and selection.
    The choice is yours.

    GENERAL
    If you want to keep your selection(s) to yourself, that's fine.....but if you want to disclose/share/discuss your selection(s) with other players, please feel free to do so here on the game thread.

    PLEASE EITHER CHECK OTHER PLAYERS' POSTS TO ENSURE THAT YOU ARE NOT GOING TO CHOOSE A NUMBER THAT HAS ALREADY BEEN PICKED BY SOMEONE ELSE......OR REFER TO THE LIST BELOW TO SEE WHICH NUMBERS ARE STILL AVAILABLE FOR SELECTION

    Numbers Still Available For Selection - RACE 10 - BRITAIN:




    Good luck to you all.

    ANNOUNCEMENT

    This announcement is directed at those players who choose NOT to reveal the identities of their chosen drivers.

    From now on, at the end of each race, if your driver(s) finish in the points you must reveal yourself as the 'owner' of the driver(s) concerned in order to get the points awarded added to your score.

    If you fail to identify yourself as the 'owner' of a point scoring driver then the points will go 'unclaimed' and no points will be awarded.

    If you have revealed the identity of your drivers before/during the race in thread posts/discussions, then there is no need to identify yourself again at the end of the race.....points will automatically be awarded as appropriate.

    ANNOUNCEMENT

    Just to clarify the announcement I made above:

    You only have to declare your driver(s) if they finish in a point scoring position, at the end of a race.

    The choice is yours whether or not you reveal the name your driver(s) before the end of a race.

    (If you have revealed the identity of your drivers before/during the race in thread posts/discussions, then there is no need to identify yourself again at the end of the race.....points will automatically be awarded as appropriate.)

    3
    8
    9
    10
    12-15 inclusive
    17
    19-22 inclusive
    24
    25


    So, ANYONE who wants to pick ONE number for Thursday from the list above.....please feel free.
    This includes:
    a) anyone picking a number for the first time
    AND
    b) anyone who picked a number yesterday (Wednesday) & wants to increase their chances of scoring some/more points with a second selection.


    Make sure you confirm that numbers you would like to choose from the list above have NOT been picked in posts made after this one.........alternatively refer to the first post of this thread for a more up-to-date list.
