2014 Fantasy Commonwealth Games
Yes, I know. People are still pondering their line-ups for the quarter-finals of the World Cup, but there are other sporting events happening this summer. I'm not saying the Commonwealth Games will be bigger or smaller than the World Cup, but there are more participating countries than at the World Cup, and there's more than 1 sport being contested.
To mark this memorable occasion, I've gone back to the 2012 Olympics competition I ran, and I've cobbled together a Fantasy Commonwealth Games competition. The web-site with all the entry details & bits and pieces on is here and I think the only thing to say is that if anyone picks a country that gets thrown out of The Commonwealth between now & 3 weeks time when it all starts, you can change your entry, but after the closing date, then it's tough luck.
The judges decision is final.
Good luck everyone.
Edit : Should have also said that the competition is open to non-FISO people, so if you know anyone else that would like a go, then that's fine.

Re: 2014 Fantasy Commonwealth Games
Right, so that's 1 entry (and a valid one). At this rate, there'll be 21 entries by the time it all kicks off (or whatever the first event is).

Re: 2014 Fantasy Commonwealth Games
I always get this when I set a competition. Even though it's tough, everyone has the same entry form, and with only 5,806,512 different valid entries, 1 of those will be the best.Knulpuk wrote:Tough pricing!
All entries received are valid, and it goes without saying that if anyone does put an invalid entry in, I will let them know as soon as feasibly possible.

Tough pricing but not moaning I would rather it was that than a cakewalk to pick a team.
