    Think Xavi is doing this today.

    Currently the scores are

    1. Xavi6 51
    2. Zebra 38
    3. eagle eye 35
    4. CARROLLER 34
    5. gustavo 32
    6. redout 24

    I think if we're doing a league system we could do it so that 1st gets 3 points, 2nd gets 2 and 3rd gets 1.

    Just suggestions

    eagle eye said he would take part if it started after the gold cup which is a 3.20 start. So maybe a 3.40 start for us??
