H e l l o ! :wave:


First off, I'm aware my gamehosting hasn't been winning me any awards this season (not entirely unlike previous seasons, mind you, though this time I've really outdone myself), and I'm truly sorry for that. I WILL post all the missing game results - every single bit of them - before the qualifying for the Brazilian GP starts so you'll get a chance to be strategic, desperate or whathaveyou about your guesses if you want to.

Edit: OK, so the above won't be happening after all because new threads are the bane of the earth, i.e. banned. But I have updated the overall standings and posted them in this thread - reply #21 or thereabouts. Feel free to admire your success there and strategise as appropriate.

Anyway, welcome to the final round of 2007 F1 Pools. We arrive at Brazil in a situation where the F1 Pools championship is still very much up for grabs, just like the real thing. It's almost a three-way battle, too, just like the real thing. Leading the pack is shays, but his three(ish)-point lead over second-placed snark is hardly secure - particularly when playing it safe is not an option unless they both want to be beaten to the title by scheivlak who's no more than a point further back and in a perfect position to sneak past the top two should they falter. The official F1 Pools benchmark for excellence, reigning triple champion dnbn runs the risk of being beaten - for the first time in his F1 Pools career - but he's still an impressive fourth and might, with a bit of luck, even steal his fourth consecutive title. It's not looking particularly likely but it's possible. Who'll prevail in this battle of titans?

Here are the duels:

You know the rules.

Deadline: start of qualifying

Format for guesses: anything goes but something simple along the lines of "XXX XXX 121 1XX" would be nice.

Good luck! Posted Image

I was thinking maybe thirteen? That should be plenty.

But seriously.. I'm almost done; tomorrow's the big day. Or that's the plan, anyway. :)

OK, so it turns out we're not allowed to start new threads. I was planning to start a gigantic F1 Pools Hall of Shame/Fame thread that would've covered most of the season, but I guess it's best to wait until the ban for new threads is lifted. Instead, I'll post the current F1 Pools Championship standings here - just in case someone comes looking. Here you go:

[COLOR=teal][SIZE=4][B]F1 Pools 2007 - Overall Standings After Round 16[/B] [/SIZE]  



[SIZE=2]1	shays 				 147,51

2	snark 				 144,46

3	scheivlak 		 143,70

4	dnbn 				 140,50

5	fisichella_2001	  139,46

6	LB 				 137,56

7	D82 				 137,21

8	f1dave 				 133,92

9	Moanaman 		 133,89

10	Apex 				 133,51

11	Estwald 		 133,41

12	Makarias 		 133,13

13	an1res 				 127,95

14	KWSN - DSM 		 125,23

15	Xig 				 124,98

16	magicalonso 		 123,53

17	AussieF1 		 123,08

18	Zawed 				 119,21

19	Alapan 				 119,16

20	kismet 				 115,66

21	garth_b 		 111,78

22	skylark68 		 102,90

23	DeathMasteR 		 78,50

24	Crazy Canuck 		 72,51

25	armonico 		 50,45

26	richardowen 		 41,57

27	brunopascal		 16,51

28	THE HUMAN MAN		 11,96

29	ivanh 				 10,15

30	Kooper 				 5,11[/SIZE] [/COLOR]

That should be correct - ish - but I'll go through the results again and doublecheck things if/when the powers that be lift the ban on new threads so I can proceed with the mother of all results threads.

Until then: :wave:
