As far as I know, I don't know, but as far as I remember in a PM it's only if it is from the internet and has a link

Hmm, I was hoping to write out the teams randomly and send photo to admin for safekeeping, and to prove there was no shenanigans taking place (not that I would be interested in that type of thing).

So, maybe if all concerned is happy enough, I could instead write teams out in a private message and send to admin.

Then when all players have chosen their two teams, admin can copy and paste my message up on the thread. And everyone can then see what teams they have chosen.

What do you think? Does that sound sound?

Sounds dodgy to me.

Write them on an envelope (stuffed with used 20's of course) and I'll get my man to meet your man and collect the envelope. That can then be held in trust in Red Ned's until the games commence. Or of course until the 20's run out. Well they will need betting slips after all!

Alternatively your plan sounds like a sound plan so that's be sound, man!!

Everything sounds dodgy to you :D

Things will hopefully be put in place soon. Picking teams won't commence until tomorrow (at least) so to give everything time to get home safely from Westmeath.

So, keep an eye on this space, as the plan is that numbers will be chosen on a first come first served basis.

OK, so we have our 16 players (above). The list containing all 32 teams randomly numbered will be sent soon to @Admin1 for safekeeping.

Rules are fairly straightforward:

Each player has to chose 2 numbers between 1 and 32. This will be on a first come first served basis. When you have publicly posted your choice of numbers, just check previous messages in case of duplication (readjust if necessary).

When 15 players have chosen, the two numbers left will be allocated to myself. When all 32 numbers have been chosen/allocated, @Admin1 has agreed to reveal the list publicly on the thread. Each player can then see which two teams they have for the Sweepstake.

I will be starting a new thread tomorrow declaring the Sweepstake opened. After thread has been started, you may chose your 2 numbers.

Any queries, give me a shout.
