Matthew Tassier

Matthew Tassier I can see the targets, but they do appear to have been randomly sorted so I suppose we'll have to guess which one is ours.

Mark O'Regan

Mark O'Regan Yes - I’m not sure why Matty has such a lower target than me when we have a similar score

Fiona T

Fiona T bo8 is 5 games...

Adam Latchford

Adam Latchford wd saving on admin time :D

M S R

M S R That was a filtering error, has been sorted. Five games works fine for here. Testing=tinkering, so I'm glad errors are coming out now :D

Ian Volante

Ian Volante Is it the best of our five scores?

M S R

M S R This round on-going for the best of the scores

Ian Volante

Ian Volante I'm not sure what that means!

M S R

M S R Yes, the best of the five scores will count

Andy SC

Andy SC Oh we weren't playing to get our target score in the least mumber of rounds possible?

M S R

M S R -You're playing to reach the target in the least number of rounds possible
-When looking at that, I take best scores, and work backwards

Testing=tinkering, so apologies for anything that isn't quite clear!

Andy SC

Andy SC I just thought it would be from the first game played and blanked rounds once I reached my target.

Fiona T

Fiona T yeah I assumed the same - didn't make much effort after I reached the target

Dan Byrom

Dan Byrom I only played one game because I assumed that was it. I'm lucky because had I played more I probably would have focused a lot less under the assumption that the remaining rounds/games were meaningless (although let's be frank I'm not gonna beat my first one)

M S R

M S R That wasn't communicated as well as I'd have liked-down to my own incompetence I hasten to add xD

(Apologies for confusion. As said, the testing is there to help get the format right!)

I will make sure to outline anything else being tried in fuller detail. This is good-will help make the real thing in 2024 better

Andy SC

Andy SC I would say taking it from the first game would be sensible

Matthew Tassier I agree, letting people have multiple attempts at a race is losing a lot of F1ness, Though I'm sure a lot of drivers would appreciate being given 5 chances to overcome Verstappen.

Ian Volante

Ian Volante I feel that working from the last game would also work quite well.

M S R

M S R OK, OK-the people have spoken. I will revert to that going forward. I'm sorry for any confusion

M S R

M S R Drury takes P1 in the race, with Byrom and Maus close behind.

Drury P1 on 77 having galumphed ahead-but this round was narrow, and the chasing pack are tight. Byrom on 46, Carey on 45, Cappleman on 41, with Latchford behind on 28. Anything can happen, and we're on this blest isle next. To Silverstone!

Ian Volante

Ian Volante Didn't I make it in 38 rounds? Not that it makes much difference.
