2006 FORZAMINARDI.COM CHALLENGE - NURBURGRING - RD. 5 (05 MAY-07 MAY)

2006 FORZAMINARDI CHALLENGE: RULES:

1.0 Predict the following exactly and gain points each round:
a. Pole getter - 2 point (pole getter is defined as the one who is on pole
when the race is started)
b. Winner of GP - 3 points
c. Second in GP - 2 points
d. Third in GP - 1 point
e. 1st car out after the race has started under the green lights whether
through DNF or DNS (through stalling for eg.) or through DQ (by black flag
for eg.) - 1 point (point given even if DQ is appealed)
f. Name the ex-minardi driver who finishes in the highest position in the race amongst all ex-minardi drivers - 2 points

All predictions above must be EXACTLY correct. Should any driver pull out
before the race weekend, his replacement is not automatically substituted in
the bets...the bettors MUST exercise the edit right as provided in clause 6
two days before race day.

2.0 Prize for the winner with most points at end of season:
a. one very attractive racing teeshirt...plus whatever additional prize R-J
or the others may want to throw in. :-)

3.0 The organiser is FactyCrab.

4.0 The qualifying and race results first published by formula1.com will be
used to judge the bets placed. No appeal to organiser's decision which is
final.

5.0 If the organiser cannot make a decision, he will consult R-J and/or
Minardi4eva who shall act as referees.

6.0. All bets must be submitted in the above 1.0 a to g order and must be
submitted before the first quali session start. Any bets submitted after the
first quali starts will be invalid. All bets MUST be in by before the first
quali but no editing of any bets placed can be done after the end of friday
practices (or in the case of Monaco after Thursday's practices). This is
because when a post is edited, there is no time stated when such edits have
been done. it just says which date the edit was done.

7.0 DQ means disqualification during the race. so any disqualification
resulting from not starting the race does not fall under this descrition of
DQ.

8.0 Any additional rules can be added to aid clarity but not to change the
bets format and the points as and when deemed neccessary.

9.0 The referees of this 2005 ForzaMinardi Challenge are FactyCrab,
Forzaminardi and Minardi4eva. A majority decision from these 3 is required
to settle any dispute. if the dispute concerns the referee's bet, then the
other 2 referee must adjudicate and arrive at a decision unanimously.

    well done, minardifan2002, champion of the ring...and new leader neil_s who leads the championship after rd.5...

    hasek2 and SuperRoo took a break this round to make it more interesting for all of us... :cool:
  • Facty, No I didn't take a break. I couldn't log onto the site on Friday. After several attempts on Friday, there was no joy. I got the message that there was problems with the site.

    I demand....................................................something!
  • what a round for me, well its revenge for what happened at imola. stupid me missing it.
  • roo, the site was back up some hours before the qualifying and max, forza as well as MINARI (hic) managed to put in their bets...been out drinking i see...

    anyway good to get a handicap from you nevertheless.

    ;)
  • Dear Boy, do you forget where I live! Friday my time is Thursday Forzaminardi time. When I left work Friday 5.30pm (which would make it aout 8.30am Friday Morning UK time) I was still not able to to log in ( after 20 attempts). I wish I had a beer.

    I demand all point for this round to be null and void. It's the only fair thing, or I get an average of this weeks points.

    RJ, adjudicate!!!!
  • Bad luck Roo........;)
  • another good round for me thanks to Schumy!
  • where do you live, roo? is it not ozland?

    minardi4eva was amongst the last to lay his bet when the site was up at around malaysian time 5pm on saturday (3 hours before quali started)...that makes it ozland time 8pm or thereabouts...

    yup, forza and 4eva, please lend roo your ears and adjudicate!! :)
  • I do not internet at home Fifi.

    This is a conspiricy!

  • RJ, adjudicate!!!!
    tough one but i'd say that the site was back up at least 24 hours before the start of qualifying or am i wrong?
  • vi or va it's time for a decision. we will soon start placing the drivers for next GP this weekend!

  • site was back up at least 24 hours before the start of qualifying
    Yes, that's 9pm Friday for me. 3.5 hours after leaving work.

    You know, in a F1 tipping competition here, if for any reason someone does not put their tips in for this weekends race, their tips automatically default to last race's tips.




    Just thought I would share that.





    [Edited on 10-5-0606 by SuperRoo]
  • The first bet since the site went back up is by Telstar and he placed it 22 hours before qualifying !!!

    So, ...... quit whining !! :P
  • just place bets as usual for the next race.

    i do agree that some people might have been compromised by the downtime. if someone, apart from roo agrees we can scrap last race. people, like minardifan2002, who got exceptional results, would be able not to bet for barcelona and have their nurrburgring points count towards that race. that would be fair and solomonic, no?
  • Rules are rules:


    6.0. All bets must be submitted in the above 1.0 a to g order and must be
    submitted before the first quali session start. Any bets submitted after the
    first quali starts will be invalid. All bets MUST be in by before the first

    because when a post is edited, there is no time stated when such edits have
    been done. it just says which date the edit was done.


    I'd love to null and void the bets as i had a bad round, but it just isnt fair on everyone else who submitted their picks in time. For the Aussie race i couldnt get on the board, so as a backup i sent a PM to FactyCrab just in case i couldnt get on before qual started. In which case it wasnt needed as i managed to get onto the board in time, but i suggest for others to do this in future.
