    Yes, there's not a tier system for teams. This time round teams are being used to give latecomers something to pick. Since we don't anticipate huge swathes of them there wasn't much point in creating tiers. If someone gets Red Bull and another three get Hispania, Virgin and Mercedes then it's just tough titty really.

    In my opinion we need to try some variations of rules to see what works best.

    I wonder if the numbers will be greater this time? It seems there was a fair bit of traffic over the last weekend

    Yeah but I don't think much attention was given to the sweepstakes while they were around. Hopefully they'll return in the lead up to Valencia but it'd be great if they turned up for this.

    Can the mods do the revealing better this time. After Canada was a let down compared to Monaco, I feel that the one team thing again is a good idea <ok>

    What do you mean? The way we're doing it for Valencia is better or you preferred choosing both a driver (number) and a team (letter) as in Monaco?

    I liked it in Monaco - evil style, but I appreciate it requires a lot of effort and coordination on the mods' part. If BLS isn't here I think DHC standing in would be a good move.

    Well I liked when it was Cosicave and SilverArrow left and the 2 Red Bulls were left(in Monaco I think) and you made the text white and made everyone highlights it to see.

    Do that reveal for the Top three. It will spice things up.

    Basically just make it evil. <devil>

    <ok>

    Well that would be good but cant you just use the search to find it, by typing the words people will think you say. Or go to your posts.

    Good idea but many flaws.

    You probably already worked it out but in Canada, the mods made a table showing whose got who. And in Monaco they did one team by team every ten minutes or so. I didnt really like the picking teams that much <ok>

    Not sure what table you mean but maybe they can replicate it this time. Thanks for the feedback on picking teams. I preferred the Canada method where everyone picked both a driver and a team because it gave more scope for players to get someone worth cheering on. We need to try it this way, though, to see what players prefer. <ok>

    I'm not here but I preferred it when the revealing was slow and painful. Teasing you all is good fun, its such a shame I've got to go lie/swim/jet ski/eat nice food... in the sun <laugh>
