Enough said.
No more folly words.
Just opening the round.
I'll be concise, time is gold.
It's vacation time for many people, and they usually don't have a regular access to Internet.
Now, I'll put the "official" rules.
Not necessary any comments, in order to gain time.
After rules, I'll close the post and guessing can begin.
Welcome everybody.
Goodbye to people who doesn't participate any more.
Now the rules, sure.
(They are the usual set of rules, anyway)
I'm happy, I have been concise, for the first time.
No words at all appart the rules.
Cool!
I got it!
Now the rules, seriuosly.
Sorry, I meant "seriously".
Rules:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It consists in guessing the three firsts in F1 races. You do an ordered guess (i.e. MS-JPM-RS) and a score is given according to real podium results. The scoring system is as explained here:
Suppose you do the guess MS-JPM-RS.
If MS is 1st, 3 points
if MS is 2nd, 2 points
if MS is 3rd, 1 point
If JPM is 1st, 2 points
if JPM is 2nd, 2 points
if JPM is 3rd, 1 point
If RS is 1st, 2nd or 3rd, 1 point
It another driver makes a podium position, it doesn't give any points.
The key for this system is not "gambling" on the exact position but to do a realistic shot at the relative merit of each driver in that GP. For instance, you are not penalized for JPM being first and not 2nd, as the penalty comes by not scoring with MS's first position.
In order to have a reference I will enter two "dummy" players: Bernie and Max (the names were chosen randomly ). Bernie always guesses the firsts three qualifyers, and Max always guesses the firsts three classified in WDC current points table. Can you outscore B&M?
Any guess can be done before one hour before the official first start of the race. We will use the "official" Atlas Forum clock to resolve close entries.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After the rules, just goodbye.
No need to be longer...
Oh, God! I'm doing it again!
Where are my pills? I need professional assistance.
USET syndrome (unable-to-stop-explaining-things).
Help!
But goodbye, anyway

This competition is proving to be annoyingly difficult this season!

Sorry, I had to make *that* joke
When I sink from the top (that is likely to happen, knowing my trend to forget to put my guess), you can laugh at me. In fact I'll do it as well!

I think Zawed, scheivlak and me have won this round!
(Extracts from Writings of the Church of Schumminism:
Is Schummy a legend? Yes, he is.
Is he Enlightened? Yes, he is a Buda now
How he got transcendental Enlightened?
When he listened the wise words form master gerry nassar he reached Enlightenment)
