Why - were they listed already?

Totting up my 3DM points, alas got the wrong stage (twice)

yeah they were. but they might have just been r rather than sr, not positive.

i'll win either way so its cool

Mardy, on Feb 10 2009, 03:13 PM, said:

OK, I've had a think about this and I've come up with the following. Hope you all fancy playing;


1) choose 10 bands you think will play Glastonbury

2) Choose the stage you think those bands will play in and write it next to the bands

P - Pyramid
O - Other
JW - Jazzworld
DV - Dance Village
AC - Acoustic
JP - John Peel
AV - Avalon
PK - Park

3) The total number of albums combined by ALL your artists must not exceed 35. We'll use wikipedia as a reference and only studio albums will count, live albums and compilations are not included in the total. Scrapped, due to popular demand  

4) Only include bands which are 'rumoured' or lower (ie no reference to them) on Neil's efestivals page on Friday 13th Feb midday (Otherwise it would be a bit dull and everybody would put Franz Frdinand, Neil Young, Springsteen and Blur   ) Go for some wildcards, why not?

5) Scoring is as follows

Band appears at Glasto  - 10 points
You correctly guess the stage - 10 points
Band plays multiple sets on different stages- You get 10 points for each appearance and 10 points if one of the appearances is on your nominated stage

6) entries to reach me by Friday 13th feb. PM them to me.

7) I'll do the maths etc (more or less) and the winner will get a bottle of vodka that I'll bring over from Russia, or cash equivalent (1.70p)

8) My decision is final (hahah the power, the power)

9) Example entry

The Cure - P
Glasvegas -O
Spiritualised -JP
James Taylor - AC
Billy Bragg - AV
Tom Jones - P


etc etc etc

Any problems, just shout.

Hope that's all OK and clear enough, good luck and please enter  

cheers

Paul

Is it worth doing a tot-up at this stage Mardy? See who was provisionally the most spot on?

Sorry, can't be arsed to do the totting up myself

(Just gutted I didn't go for Status Quo in my line-up, was certainly considering them)

[Mardy]

ah, sorry yes, been busy lately, but you're absolutely right, will do some adding up later and tell you the score.

cheers for reminding me

I am interested I have been looking out for the winner. I thought i must have missed it as I am not on here every day of the week.

We should get 5 bonus points each for our vibrant enthusiasm  

[Mardy]

OK all, sorry for the dealy.

Now, I've totted up the scores but before the Z list celeb with the cavernous cleavage awards the trophy, I have to say, these are only provisional. A lot of it depends on whether the Klaxons play, and which stage they play on. Could go right down to the wire this...


at the moment, provisional standings are as follows:

Carlos the Mackerel: 80 points
timespeedsup: 80 points
stutheblue: 20 points
thisiswhereIstand: 60 points
ToxicJesus: 30 points
olive 123: 80 points
theboytaff: 50 points
jollynolly: 50 points
ampersand: 50points
Marathon-Man: 90points


Nailbiting stuff. A couple of people could still sneak it, depending on if the klaxons play, and where....

[ampersand]

i;m chuffed wi 50 points after looking back. i didnt think i had that much  

[Mardy]

anyway, everybody who entered, come and find me at a meet and we'll share some vodka together.

That's very dangerous.

Where will you be again?
