Fantasy F1 Teams?

[Ultra]

Any of you wanna get involved in some Fantasy F1 race teams?  Lots of websites to do this with.

I'm in.  We need a few others to make it viable.

Anyone?

[Otto Puzzell]

Though I usually suck at this, I'm happy to participate as the back marker!  :D

[Carnut]

Me too.
I used to have a couple of fantasy teams some years ago and enjoyed it hugely.
So I'm in, but the circus starts 3 weeks today so we need to get on with it...

[oko94]

Count me in.

Give me a couple days and I'll have us all signed up at site.

Gentlemen,

http://badgergp.com/

Our league name is "Autopuzzles" without the quotation marks.  The code needed to join our league is 7459234

I'm already signed up.  It all awaits you guys now...

[oko94]

I've registered as oko94 (how original). How can I join the Autopuzzles league ? I can only create a Fantasy GP Team, not join one. Do I have to receive an invitation or something ? Do I have to subscribe to a £5 Rookie membership ?

[Otto Puzzell]

After creating your team, you'll need to click the "Friends League" link on the right, and enter the code (I had to enter it twice).

Scuderia Utz is built!

Ecurie Rouge is ready to compete !

[Otto Puzzell]

Excellent!

C'mon, guys, we need more than three teams on the grid! With my participation, you are guaranteed to not finish last! :)

5 so far.  Let's keep the recruitment drive up!

After a long hiatus, the Flying Burrow Owls have returned! Expect the unexpected!

[Otto Puzzell]

I do, and shall!

What, exactly, is a flying burrow owl?

[Stephen M]

What, exactly, is a flying burrow owl?

I'm not 100% sure on this myself. I think I wanted a "Flying ____" -type name where "____" was something not particularly known for speed or flight. I don't recall how I settled on a burrow owl.  ???

[Paul Jaray]

Excellent!

Perfect...now I know who I am racing against: last place has to be mine!
This is the first and only online game I ever joined and I have no clue about how it works.
I hope suggestions and heads-up will be posted here for those, like me, who will miss things there.

When you join you're given a budget ($75 I think) then  you get to choose your teams and drivers.
But of course you can't just choose the top ones otherwise you exceed your budget..
You might get one top team and driver but then you only have enough money left for the back-markers..

When the race is run you get points according to how your teams (3) and drivers (3) did; at the end of the season the one with most points wins!

It's great fun and really gives you something to wish for on a Sunday afternoon; and it's not always wht you'd want if you weren't taking part!

I couldn't have said it better.

An important bit of information - there are big points available for how many places a driver pics up during the race, so a slow but steady driver may be lucrative, especially in a high-attrition race.

[Paul Jaray]

Thank you...can't wait!

Gentlemen, the last minutes of time before the F1 season begins are upon us.  Get your teams ready.  It's gonna be a lot of fun.  Best of luck to all you second place finishers!!   ;)

We've got 6 teams in the league. I wonder if we can get any more....

Nicanary, your our Host, care to join?

I just tried to, but it kept refusing my log-in details. I'll have to find time later, if just to keep face as a motorsport enthusiast.

PS It's Bernie's Flying Circus, not a sport, but you all know what a miserable curmudgeon I can be..........
