Cheers for that Blondie, well chuffed cos we improved on last year by two places

Gobsmacked to see we were only two points off equal first on the scatter, blimey that was close

[Frazzel]

59th!!!! quite impressed with that tbh being our first year maybe we can improve on it next year


(lets see how long it takes before simon n richard rub it in our face that they beat us by 8 points)

[Richard]

Did I tell you that Julie gets very competative..? She's already talking about "next year" so I can see her looking to improve.

Can someone please explain what/how scatter/orienteering/navigation are actually scored and how we're supposed to play? Are your marked up maps scored? Do you get more points for quick completion?

[Doodles]

There will be points for each clue you answered and each letter board you collected enroute. If theres a time limit on the section and you go over then you are penalised but no bonus for fast completion as a rule. The John Wayne quotes were supposed to be worth a fortune but dont know how many points.

As to the actual scoring methods, its shrouded in mystery

I was getting that impression looking back at the forum trying to work out what the categories mean.

How many John Wayne quotes did everyone see? We saw three definates (by camp site, digger bucket at Bala and telegraph pole on Westward route beyond the inflatable cowboy), plus a fourth guess (blur seen in corner of eye) on Eastwards route. We didn't put coordinates for the Bala one because we didn't have a map - or so we thought (should have used Navigator grids). We were beginning to think they were a myth...

[Richy V8]

Well done to everyone especially Team Spirals.

Would I rub it in Fraz that we beat you - oh yes ha ha- loser!!!!!!!!!

[Richard]

Cheers - I think Team Scrapheap have set the benchmark for 2012 though

I can't help feeling there's a high degree of alchemy in the scoring (and don't some people take it so seriously?? )

[Bill]

Aye richard thats why i emphisize on the fun element as it means we can chat withoot 'spying'
If ye know what i mean

I guess then that yer up for next years run then?

As to the actual scoring methods, its shrouded in mystery

I was getting that impression looking back at the forum trying to work out what the categories mean.

How many John Wayne quotes did everyone see? We saw three definates (by camp site, digger bucket at Bala and telegraph pole on Westward route beyond the inflatable cowboy), plus a fourth guess (blur seen in corner of eye) on Eastwards route. We didn't put coordinates for the Bala one because we didn't have a map - or so we thought (should have used Navigator grids). We were beginning to think they were a myth...

I think we got 5 or 6 of em but Ben will confirm that. Dunno how many there should have been but there was the one at the camp site as you say, there was one on a marshals car and the rest we picked up on the west run Saturday afternoon tue other ide of Finny on the side roads. There was one I think Barb got on the Thursday but we missed it Gave up looking on Saturday
