Great selection there Burks...which reminds me of something i thought last fantasy league season - that the monthly champion should be the one scoring the most points in that single month. Not the one highest in the overall standings. Really after i messed up selections for laguna seca any interest in scoring points went - ie no hope of prizes and low down in standings. With the monthly prize being actually monthly would keep the interest all year.
I did though create my own interest by starting a... ...juniors team where i could only select rookie riders - eg guintoli and a replacement rider. So meaning i concentate on team/engine selections rather than riders (which is of course the usual to focus on). So now putting team green in at motegi i've had my highest points score of the season leaping into the 20s... -------------------- Avatar © www.ospix.co.uk

It was my suggestion to Ben that we offer a monthly prize, and in hindsight we should have given it a little more thought. Little point in making posts about it, as we can predict pretty much who out of a few will win. Next year eh?

Assuming there is a next year of course...unlike the British GP 250s! -------------------- Avatar © www.ospix.co.uk

Well it's not paid for like the intent was at the start of the season. So is done voluntarily so you never know... As for 250s there was a british 250 championship this season - not run at Bsb tho - and the turn out ended up being poor so won't continue next year.

Well, yes, that is true. But it's hard to tell if some other orders I have had are from guest viewers. I check my web stats and have regular hits from this site....only a few, but regular. Making a website work is just a nightmare to a novice like me, but this year I have had a steady trickle of Rossi orders. Now that's progress!!!  I have made a few sales to members, is it Roger's birthday very soon? He better not have opened it!!!! And of course there is Jumkie (Sam), and the soon to be wed Chuy. Not only do they own a 'Burky', they have become valued friends on the other side of the pond. It's not all about money. Hopefully we'll refine it, and see you next year. I know this is of personal interest to you, if you wish to PM me about it, that would be cool as I could use all the input and help I can get. -------------------- www.davidburk.net

Right right! One sec, working on it now! I'm champion of September as well!

Whereas Darwinism would suggest that you are just an accidental and somewhat random evolution from a bunch of apes. The evidence would suggest the latter. |
