    2017 Pickems

    The following is a suggestion only. It may will be that continuing with our current pickems is preferred option of forum members.
    eWRC-results.com website has a pickems section where you need to predict top 10 drivers for each WRC event. In addition for each round you need to pick top 3 from a support category. Could this be used for our forum pickems ?
    Advantages - (1) it already provides a results calculation system (2) it is free to join (3) it has a groups functionality and we could be a group
    Disadvantages - (1) it uses a different scoring system (2) each group is limited to 50 players.
    Here are the rules for eWRC pickems http://www.ewrc-results.com/pickems_rules.php

    Ewrc doing a good job. But couldn´t we stay on this forum for our own Pickems competition? Knowing it´s a hard days work to get it going for Mintexmemory and others. What do they say about this?
    Anyone?

    I can easily make some processing program and upload the results somewhere, as did makinen_fan, it just need all pickems to be in one place to be more convenient. It's not impossible to process them as they are, but it'll take more time to write it.

    Or you can still manage with Mark pickems system direcly here in forum, I think that in ERC it was working without problems last year - http://www.motorsportforums.com/show...nner-harriswrc

    This is the route I'd favour (as we had more than 50 regular contestants).
    Happy to do the inputting by event if Pluto could just show me how to get this off the ground.
    You may remember we went to our WRC method when the site system was hacked and damaged.
    I know this route would take the strain off Makinen Fan who will be fully occupied ensuring Seb Ogier gets a 5th straight WDC (or selling R5s)!!
    Kris Meeke got fired -PSG so terrified they quit!

    If needed I want to take care of the pickems. I guess it's not very time consuming with build in system like used for the ERC.

    I gave my advices to Mintexmemory by PM and it looks like he was trying to take care about it. But I dont know the result.
