Fantasy 2018 Commonwealth Games
Greetings pop pickers.
OK, so I got that wrong again. There are exactly 6 months until the start of the 2018 Commonwealth Games which are being held on the Gold Coast. In the next few days I shall be drawing up another Shaggy-type competition with a chance to rule the Commonwealth, as opposed to ruling the world with the Olympic competition or the Winter Olympic competition (also coming to a FISO thread shortly).
So, safe in the knowledge that the Aussies will choose their favourite 7 sports as the extras to add into the medals, brace yourself for competition (in 6 months time).

Re: Fantasy 2018 Commonwealth Games
Guess what I did this lunch-time.
Here is the web-site.
Entries by email or pm. The countdown clock starts now.
... and before people moan that it's too hard to pick an entry, there are 21,607,581 different valid entries. Plenty to go round everyone.

Re: Fantasy 2018 Commonwealth Games
First entry received.
Doubt I'll get as many as for the Winter Olympics, but still going to proceed as normal.

Just produced the first league table & put it on the web-site. My spreadsheet still needs a bit of playing around, but it'll do for now.

Need to watch the Australian shot putter to see if they're sandpapering the shot to get a better grip.

Re: Fantasy 2018 Commonwealth Games
Well I've had a busy day trying to automate everything. My best attempt is https://1drv.ms/t/s!AmpJOQ47MfwJgVqECxEs0rgpIE6m
It should update every time the medal table gets updated on the Beeb web-site. Obviously it's not changing at the moment, since it's 4:07 am and there's not a lot happening, but I'm quite confident that it should work. If people can have a look when there's actually something happening I would greatly appreciate a pm.
Muchos thanks
