22nd September 2010, 12:22
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 "Singapore F1 2010" 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.

I have added a second spreadsheet "Singapore F1 2010B" below for those players who cannot or don't want to have to "Enable Macros" each time they open the main sheet.
This second sheet has just the 1 password needed to open it.
The password will be posted below and in the game thread once ALL the driver numbers have been picked.

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 NOTE: 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.

However, 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.

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.


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 15 - SINGAPORE:

19

Good luck to you all.

There's still THREE numbers left up for grabs (17, 19, 20) for those of you who haven't yet picked a number for Friday.

22 is the Safety Car. So what I need is a massive first corner accident that results in most of the field being involved in such a way that they can't continue, as long as Lewis Hamilton and Jarno Trulli manage to avoid trouble and finish 1-2. It could happen :crazy:

OK, that's your lot....

I can't even get all 25 numbers picked over 3 days by 11 regular players....says it all really, doesn't it? Another nail in the W2W coffin.

Please let it be known that your continued support in my games (you know who you are) is so greatly appreciated, and on this occasion I accept holidays are just a small part of the reason for the lack of support, but the stage has been reached that is it really worth the effort....I think not!!!!!

I will keep to my word and see the Formula 1 Sweepstake Game through to its conclusion in November....

So as Number 19 was not picked, the associated driver's points achieved (if any) in the race on Sunday, will not count towards any player's cumulative score.

OK....that's it....NOT all the numbers (19) have been picked.

Sat 25 September: Qualifying 1500 BST
