Mega congratulations to Saleen S7R and Mekola, our joint champions, and I hope you'll all be back for the 06/07 season starting in October!

SALEEN S7R · 2 Apr 2006, 12:39 (Ref:1567814)

Congratulations also to Mekola and Marcus, has been a very close season.

marcus · 3 Apr 2006, 09:45 (Ref:1568840)

Hmmmm I could have sworn I won a round during the season ??

Oh well doesnt matter i came up 2 points short.

well done evryone on a great year and well done A1 GP

Should we have a count back between mekola and Saleen to see who rightfully came out on top ??

well done guys

**ScotsBrutesFan** · 3 Apr 2006, 12:19 (Ref:1568963)

Congrats guys

The first 10-10ths comp I've entered and finished in the top 5. I'm well chuffed with that.

strider · 3 Apr 2006, 12:47 (Ref:1568991)

I reckon we were 4th equal, ScotsBrutes Fan - sounds better! It was the first time I've done one of these, too. Hindsight's a wonderful thing. My failure was to have too much faith in Nelsinho Piquet for too long!

Congratulations indeed to the winners. It was a very difficult Series to predict. I think the maximum score available per round was 14 points, but look at yesterday - the round winners scored 3! I blame the Race Director and Stewards for giving all those false start penalties...

marcus · 3 Apr 2006, 22:02 (Ref:1569571)

technically you guys were equal 3rd I guess.

saleen and mekola were equal first , I was a clear second and you 2 were equal third.

is that how it officially works anyway ???

Miranda · 4 Apr 2006, 10:27 (Ref:1569945)

congrats guys! great job

SALEEN S7R · 5 Apr 2006, 12:43 (Ref:1571388)

Hmm, now there is a idea.

maltafan · 5 Apr 2006, 16:10 (Ref:1571510)

YAYY

I ended 7th, and starting 2 races late!!

Thanks to ASP for organising

Knowlesy · 5 Apr 2006, 17:24 (Ref:1571556)

Jeez, I'd hate to see your celebration if you actually won, SALEEN.

Congrats to all.

What do you mean IF?

Knowlesy · 6 Apr 2006, 15:32 (Ref:1572354)

Well, you were a joint winner.

It's different in knowlesy's book.

SALEEN S7R · 6 Apr 2006, 17:57 (Ref:1572460)

It's differnt in my book too, but unless the organiser of this predictions competition wishes to actually do a countback I am afraid there will only be a joint winner. In a tie breaker situation like this I would personally count back who has won the most rounds of of the A1 predictions competition to come up with a overall winner.

Knowlesy · 6 Apr 2006, 18:03 (Ref:1572468)

I'm only pulling your leg here SALEEN, you are a joint winner...which is a winner I think.

Just ignore my jealousy at having never won anything since some stupid fairground game when I was six. *sob*

Although I see Mekola won one round compared to your three, so just pretend you were better or something!

strider · 6 Apr 2006, 18:06 (Ref:1572469)

I wonder why SALEEN would want to do that then...

I forgot to mention this earlier, but thanks to Kicking-back initially and then to Asp for running this competition. It's been quite a challenge!

SALEEN S7R · 6 Apr 2006, 18:07 (Ref:1572471)

Woudn't you?

Knowlesy · 6 Apr 2006, 19:52 (Ref:1572545)

Hey, it's maybe a bit late now, but I reckon you devise a tie breaker for this competition. Come on, let's have a real winner!

They don't share championships in motorsport if there is a way of seperating tied competitors after all!

Let's have a fight to the death between Mekola and SALEEN S7R, or failing that a results countback!

SALEEN S7R · 6 Apr 2006, 19:57 (Ref:1572551)

I think a tie breaker isnt really realistic, a results countback however is, its easier to do too.

Knowlesy · 6 Apr 2006, 20:02 (Ref:1572556)

I agree, more or less.

luke · 6 Apr 2006, 20:29 (Ref:1572570)

Like in motorsport, if winners are tied, see who won the most wins?

Fight to the death, now that sounds cool.... Gentlemen, choose your weapons!

Seriously, I considered adding a tie-breaker, but that's best done on a "who will win the championship" idea (otherwise it just becomes extra round points), so obviously it was too late to do that.
As far as I'm concerned, you're both winners - it's only for fun anyway! Sadly there's no prize (this year...), so you can both have gloating rights until the new season!

Knowlesy · 7 Apr 2006, 15:19 (Ref:1573219)

Ah well, lesson learned for next season!

Give two tie-breaker questions at the start of the year or something!
