Hi,
i have been following this thread up for long. I can see that my country (India) has only one player so far :(
Cujee, please add my name as a player, but i am really not sure how much time i can give to shoot. I will try and participate in as many challenges as possible.
In case more Indians show interest, please mark me as a reserved member.
If the incomplete teams work up an alliance, then aslo, mark me as a reserved member

Cheers

The South Africa jerseys have been posted in the other thread. Maybe this will entice more to sign up. :)

Is the plan still to have 3 points allocated for 1st, 2 for 2nd, and 1 for 3rd... because the one problem I see with this system is it effectively means that 2 silvers (4 pts) is better than 1 gold (3 pts), but 2 bronzes are only EQUAL to 1 silver. I don't have a problem with saying 2 second places is better than a first and a last, however, the same should be true of 2 bronzes vs a silver.

If you want to do the points thing a 4pts, 2pts and 1pt system

OR

You could adopt a Formula 1 type system i.e.
* 1st: 10
* 2nd: 8
* 3rd: 6
* 4th: 5
* 5th: 4
* 6th: 3
* 7th: 2
* 8th: 1

Just some more food for thought... :)

Don't discuss further, because we have already won.

Two daft questions (I'm far too lazy to read all 26 pages in case you've answered already ;-) )

-Has the UK Team got a captain yet? Any volunteers guys? I came along first and did some pm-ing to get others involved so I'm quite happy to be a captain but won't be offended if someone else would rather be captain.

-When are we starting from? Are the four challenges open for submissions likely to count?

In order for you to win 2 silvers you have to enter 2 challenges. IF you enter 2 challenges and you win 1st place twice you will have 6 points. Therefore 1st place is still better. :)

I vote for SoulMan1978 as our Captain.
I assumed we would be starting with next weeks Open challenges. Could be wrong of course.
