FIM Winners Game --> Assen
Sixth round of this game. Rules are:
---------------------------------------------- Object of the game: You have to guess the winner. You can put one, two, three or four riders as winners. Scoring: If you put one rider and he wins, you get 4 points. If you put two two riders and one of them wins, you get 3 points. In case you put 3 names and one wins, you get 2.5 points. If you choose to put four names, and one of them wins, you get 2 points. If you fail to guess the winner, you get 0 points. Time limit: Guesses can be done until one hour before the first race (125, 250 or MotoGP, whatever it is). Usually it will be one hour before 125 race. Remarks: Every FIM GP three guesses can be entered: for 125cc, 250cc and MotoGP. Those are three differents games, so you can enter only one or two categories if you like. Appart from the three classifications (125, 250 and MotoGP), I'll put a "global" classification adding all of them. The key of the game is to predict the winner putting the least possible numbers of candidates. But if you put too few riders, you risk getting 0 points! Example: Let's suppose in Jerez you had put these guesses: 125 = Simoncelli, P.Nieto, Lai (you get 2.5 points for Simoncelli) 250 = Porto, Dovizioso (you get 0 point, you failed) MotoGP = Gibernau, Rossi (you get 3 points for Rossi) We will do a final classification in the middle of the season. after that, we will evaluate how the game has gone, and in case it is OK, we will do another classification for the second part of the season. |

motogp Rossi
250cc Pedrosa 125cc Simoncelli That sounds like a good idea Schummy, those who didn't start the season have a go at winning the second classification Then I might change my guessing style. As it is, I have big points to catch up on... |

I'm afraid the classic Saturday schedule in Assen will catch out of this round some people.
According to yahoo, there is 90% probability of rain in Assen today... where is Barros and West when we need them? Anyway my bet: 125: Kallio, Pasini, Simoncelli, Luthi 250: Pedrosa, Stoner, Lorenzo (this guy is verrry quick.. if he keeps in the black part of the circuit) MotoGP: Rossi (surprise!), Gibernau (I don't Gibe up...) I think Melandri could be a dark horse shot, and if it rains Barros would be interesting. But I'm not going to guess that many people! |

For the second competition of this season ("Autumn Cup") I am considering a change in rules consisting in "forbidding" those riders who wins too often (typically Rossi, Pedrosa). This way, guessing is more open, but, on the other side, things can be somehow more confussing for occasional play.
We will talk about it when season reaches midpoint. I'd like to know if someone has opinion about this. Just to be more concrete, if we were using this rule Rossi and Pedrosa would be "forbidden" in guesses and as winners, because they have more than 50% wins. (An interesting point arises if we drop any rider: if we drop Rossi's wins, Sete becomes almost dominant with 3 virtual wins out of 6 GPs, we almost have to drop him as well! In 250cc, after Pedrosa's drop, Stoner becomes near dominant with 3 of 6 virtual wins, and if we also drop him (c% then Dovi reaches the almost dominat status with 3 of 6 virtual wins. What a mess! ) |

I'm really sorry, Dani, but rules are rules and this has been infamously "enforced" formerly
The time limit is one hour before the first race. Ask David, for example, about this particular issue Rules are the tasteless side of games. I beg people to understand I'm not a dictator , just I try to do the best thing I think |

I think Rossi is the only real dominator so maybe 2 points for correctly guessing him (instead of 4) and normal points for the others. What do you think?

My lazy nature has brought me to wednesday to put the results. Frankly speaking I don't know how you are able to live all these days without knowing the score. You all are heroes
Some of the regulars could not put guesse in this round , but, on the other side, the rest of us used this to gain positions in the Champioship! How shameful of me to say this! marcus was the best in Assen (except Valentino Rossi, of course), he was able to guess a Talmacsi win, apparently without smoking any herbaceus substance . He was the only one to get any points in 125cc, nobody got anything in 250cc, Porto's win caught all us in the backstep. In MotoGP things are becoming boring: the only difference is if people put some name in addition to Rossi in their guesses. Everybody scored 3 or 4 points. Code:
ASSEN: 125cc: marcus 3 250cc: Zero, null, nothing, etc MotoGP: DavidStH 4 beau1 4 asha 4 SALEEN 3 marcus 3 Schummy 3 Total: marcus 6 DavidStH 4 beau1 4 asha 4 SALEEN 3 Schummy 3 In the Total classification, Bleu and Schummy are closely together in the two top positions, Dani and SALEEN are close and now beau1 is approaching the head of the table. BTW, someone knows how to make a "code" without those "windows", to be able to see it complete? (grrr... I dislike this "window" feature! ) Code:
CHAMPIONSHIP: 125cc: Bleu 10 Schummy 6.5 gomick 4 marcus 3 beau1 3 SALEEN 3 Dani F 3 x_dt 3 asha 2.5 Hazza 2 250cc: Bleu 12 SALEEN 11 Schummy 10 Dani F 9 beau1 7 asha 7 DavidStH 4 Ascii 4 gomick 4 Wingman 4 Hazza 5 MotoGP: Schummy 17 Dani F 16 SALEEN 13 Bleu 12.5 beau1 10.5 marcus 10 DavidStH 8 Ascii 8 asha 4 Hazza 4 Total: Bleu 34.5 Schummy 33.5 Dani F 28 SALEEN 27 beau1 20.5 asha 13.5 marcus 13 DavidStH 12 Ascii 12 Hazza 11 gomick 8 Wingman 4 x_dt 3 |

I was on holiday and could not pick but luckily I stayed on top of rankings in overall, 250 and 125.
I watched the races from tape on Sunday evening without knowing the results (or even the grid except Kallio's pole in 125) I "made" own picks just before those but of course I knew they are not eligible, probably like this: 125: Kallio, Talmacsi, Simoncelli 250: Lorenzo, Pedrosa MotoGP: Rossi |
