The 2012 Melbourne Cup Sweep!

[Ricochet]

I'm going as fast as I can so I can catch up with the races, but with so many entrants its taking me a while to write it all up, not to mention getting the results.

Paitence please while I get these done. :)

you are doing an awesome job c4!   ;D

am at work as no public holiday in WA ...    :(      ;)

i know how you feel mate! why can't they just make it a national holiday

[c4v3m4n]

are there points allocated for all positions, or just for placing?

I was going to do it for just placings, but to make it more interesting, points are allocating on ALL positions in reverse order.

Did I sleep with random.org's sister? I'm getting slaughtered so far. :'(

You tell me, did you? ;)

Well, with the announcement of the Melbourne Cup sweep, you'd be a little happier I imagine.

Yes, that's right, the Melbourne Cup sweep has been announced!!! :o :o

Good luck to everyone.

Going to start working out the leaderboard now before the race! :D

Whoever wins the Cup basically wins the Sweep.  :-X

Hardly Torp. ::)

Yeah you get 48 points if you win, but if you do really well in other races like some have, then they don't need a great finish in the Cup.

I reckon that you have to finish top 5 in the Cup to be in the running for the sweep. Will have a better idea after the Leaderboard though.
