Being TWPC, in fact, an "F2" Competition whenever the series it claims to be that, is opened this Competition alongside GP2 one.
This F2 TWPC will be opened to users of four forums: Ten-Tenths, GlobalF1, ClubF1.es and Thef1. As GP2 TWPC, this Competition will mantain two championships: one for individuals and other of forums. On Forums Champ, each forum gathers the points scored by their users but, this time, will be a sort of handicap, while only best four forum scorers will sum for their forum each round.

2009 F2 TWPC Rulebook
Here it is, the
RULEBOOK OF THE 2009 F2 TWO WORLDS PREDICTION COMPETITION Overview This F2 competition is opened to all users of four forums: ClubF1.es, GlobalF1.net, Ten-Tenths.com and Thef1.com, challenging all them about their accuracies in F2 predictions. Round to round, which can aboard a F2 weekend or a special F2 event, the concursant could enter their predictions in a period of time before that weekend or event happens. A small lapse of time after each round, the results will be processed and published, both in a round report and a Excel tablesheet. Each round will have a winner, and the sum of all rounds will give us a champion. There will be mentions for each best forum scorer, but there will be only one champion, who will be remembered with all deserved glory in our Hall of Fame. Is important to remark that each forum user represent not only themselves, but the forum they used to put the predictions. Then there is too a forum championship, where each forum scores in each round the sum of the results of all their users. Championship norms of both championships will be same as in users championship, but in this case it will be the forums that will go to a quest for glory. How to enter Before F2 season, there will released the first round and a special Championship round, described later in this rulebook; they'll have defined opening and closing dates, and in the period of time between them, all users of the forums involved in this Competition can post their predictions. During F2 season, each round will be opened twelve days before the F2 weekend, except in the case of two F2 rounds on consecutive weekends, where the opening will be seven days before. During this time, all users of the forums involved in this Competition can post their weekend predictions, until the day of the qualifying of the first race. In both cases, the deadline will be set on 8:00 AM GMT of the day when the round closes. You could check opening and closing dates in the calendar posted below this rulebook. You must all make sure to post your predictions in such a manner that we can understand who you are picking for which position. If we have any doubt whatsoever, your prediction could be partially or totally annulled. Above all though, this is a fun competition, so we will do our best to contact you if we are in doubt over who you have selected, and you will then be given the opportunity to clarify your predictions, ever before the deadline of the round where that happens. After posting your entry, you have the opportunity to revise your choices before the close of a Competition round. Please make it clear in any additional post (at Ten-Tenths) or edited post (at the rest of the forums) on the thread that you are revising your choices. If you are unable to post your picks in the predictions thread for technical problems, you can send it to me via e-mail to this direction: gp2twpc@yahoo.es. If you are going to be absent, and thus not be able to post your predictions during the period when a round thread will be open, you can post your predictions in advance, either in the previous predictions thread (EG: post predictions for Istanbul at Barcelona round), or send it to me via PM or email. In all these cases, received predictions will be posted on the respective round thread by the F2 TWPC Admin as soon as possible after their reception. Users are not able to post predictions in name of other concursants. Finally, a note about F2 weekend predictions: when a concursant predicts a driver who left his seat, in the predictions usually we will NOT consider his replacement in his position. The user then should check your predictions in that case, and amend it to have full possibilities before deadline. Predictions, Point Scoring and Results In this Competition, normally you have to predict all the main items of each F2 race weekend: it means, pole and top 8 results of the two races that constitute each round. In the race results, you got one point per driver correctly predicted, or two in each case this driver finishes in the position you predicted. In the pole position scorers predictions, you got one point for the poleman correctly predicted. In addition, before the 8 rounds about each F2 weekend, there will be one special round before the F2 season, about the top 8 drivers in the final standings of the 2009 F2 Drivers Championship. Point scoring of this round will be alike race result predictions (2 points for each correct prediction in correct position, 1 point for each correct prediction in other position than predicted). When the races/events involved in each round are finished, the results will be processed in an Excel sheet specially prepared to calculate them, and released in a result report; all in a period up to 72 hours after the definition of each round. You can access to the Excel sheet at this web address: http://perso.wanadoo.es/F2twpc/2009F2TWPC.zip, but usually you'll have this link with each round result reports. All round results will be based on the official F2 race and championship results announced on the official F2 website, formulatwo.com. Forum Matters Each forum user represent not only themselves, but the forum they used to put the predictions. If you're present in more than one forum involved in this Competition (like me, Mekola) you must decide which forum you'll represent. In my case, I'll be marked as a Velocidad-TotalF1 forum user. In case the forumer want to change forum representation, the change should be announced to F2 TWPC Admin, with the exception of force majeure, in case that forumer can't write again in the forum he used to represent. All points that forumer scored before forum change will belong to the previous forum represented. For identify reasons, forum users could be marked in two forms: his name followed by an abreviature put in parenthesis -User (##)-, in forum reports, or written in a certain colour, in Excel sheets. There are the identify codes: ClubF1: User (CB) or dark grey GlobalF1: User (GL) or dark blue Ten-Tenths: User (TT) or blue Thef1: User (TH) or magenta Championships There are two main championships on this Competitions: one for users and other for forums. On the first one, the users championship in each stage there will be round winners, and the sum of all rounds will give us a champion. But it could be more than one user with most quantity of points. Then, in case of tie, the break will be defined by the most points scored in a round, if the tie persists the tie-breaker will be the second best point scoring, if it still persists it will be the third best point scoring... until the champion arises. There is too a forum championship, where each forum scores the sumatory of the results of their users but, in order to favour forums with less quantity of users, it will be imposed a "net point" system where only the best four scorers will sum for its respective forum during each round. Nonetheless, more forum users involved in the Competition tends to increase the possibility of the forum to have a high score. Both users and forum championship are fun competitions to and it gives no material prize for the winner, only the glory to be the one who did the best profit of knowledge about F2 Series, and the right to be immortalized in our Hall of Fame. Conclusion and Acknowledgements This is a fun competition, that gives forum users the opportunity to improve their knowledge about F2, and know the possible F1 stars of the future. If you have any problems to understand Competition rules, you can send your inquiries via e-mail to: gp2twpc@yahoo.es. This Competition is not related to Formula Two organizators, even in this championship or the prizes, then they haven't any responsability about the development of it. At the end, I thank you the people that, with their interest, contributed to the existence of this Competition: - Bella (Ten-Tenths.com forum moderator); - Chris Allen (GlobalF1.net forum administrator); - Chunterer (Ten-Tenths.com forum moderator); - Exar-Kun (Thef1.com Actuality forum administrator); - SafetyCar (ClubF1.es forum moderator); - Winfield (ClubF1.es forum administrator); And all users who will enter in this Competition. Happy motoring... and GOOD SHOW!!! Mekola - F2 TWPC Admin |
