Hi from Yorkshire

Just dropped by to say hi and introduce myself. I am a volunteer County Coordinator for Help for Heroes and am planning to take part in next year's rally with one of my volunteers who is in the Band of Sisters. I am sure she will be along at some point to say hello too!

Hi and

to the mad house.

Good to see next year is already being discussed, and just as good to see the points system is already in use .... Suspect

Evening and Welcome

Best advice I can give you is ignore everything , everybody other than me says !
They will only lead you astray(especially the organisers)
Also jealous you're already in minus points.
I was aiming(if accepted) for the highest minus score ever. Twisted Evil

Admin: 250 point deduction for singling out the organisers without mention about the marshals

New for 2015; Newbies start on 'nil' points. 2014 crews will start on -1000 points or more.

Rachel - Welcome aboard; don't listen to any of the crews comments; only the organisers!! Rolling Eyes

What's with this points thing then? Are we supposed to try to gain points, or to lose them? confused

Do we win a prize for having the most/fewest points? I like prizes...

Admin: Bonus 25 points for taking an interest, and asking questions

Hi Rachael,

Welcome from Yorkshire - (at last normal accents to speak to)

Ignore them all, listen to no one, especially the organizers, you know not what they are capable of.

Admin: 100 points deducted for encouraging teams to ignore us.

Can someone confirm if the goal is to accumulate or lose points, please? Just so I'm clear... Twisted Evil

The whole idea is that each part of the route is scored, the places that you can match to photo's etc, the more times you work out a cryptic clue, and at the offroad places, the more you do, and can get to all counts. But the admin on here deducted or add points leading up to the event, then cancel them all and you start with a clean slate. Except Tony Holland, cos he gets loads deducted just for being Tony Rolling Eyes

I personally don't agree with the points thing in the forum, it winds people up Rolling Eyes

I know - how very rude! I've met the organisers and can attest to the fact that they are in fact quite potty and no doubt capable of deeds so dastardly that they cannot be discussed on a public forum... Shocked

shshelly, you can have our 25 points in the interest of building inter-team relations and all that.

PS - I'm not from Yorkshire, I was actually born and bred in Cumbria, but don't hold that against me!

"Except Tony Holland, cos he gets loads deducted just for being Tony"

well Richie, you've done it now !
Not only was I going to buy you a beer, I was going to tell all the 'newbies' that buying you a beer would stand them well in the points table....
but now !! Evil or Very Mad

Admin: In the interest of fairness, and friendship, all points deducted from Tony are void, he is now in credit.
