Sportsbabble had a good debut season last year, finishing 6th out of 10 forums.
If you haven't played before, the points system may sound complicated, but it's not that difficult to play, just pick the top ten and pole for each race and have a wild guess at what the pole time will be.
Zdkf1 has finished moving to its new server; hopefully there won't be any teething problems but if any returning players have problems with logging in please tell me, zdkf1 aren't always great at helping quickly
so it may be easier to start a new account if you do run into problems.
Here's my usual opening post spiel...
The season is about to start, so it's time for you to make your predictions for this year's interforum league!
There's not long until the first prediction deadline
, if you are late joining, don't worry, you will get some points for each race you missed (usually 20), and you can still help the forum in the league.
How to play:
In addition to helping the forum fight against other f1 forums for the (poorly photoshopped) league trophy, you will be competing for individual awards including:
individual champion (most points on zdkf1);
6 tenths award (for most league points scored);
quali trophy (for best pole time predictor);
and the much-coveted bernie medal (for most victories).
If one of your selected drivers doesn't race, then his replacement will be used instead with the same driver class.
Driver classes aren't up for Australia yet, but will presumably be added soon.
Slightly late predictions can be emailed to support@zdkf1.com and will be included at zdkf1's discretion but if you post them on here too I will at least include them towards the league.
Good luck everyone!
