Re: F1 game
Only two races to go.
The scoring system this year makes it really difficult to decide what would be most "fair play" way to make players to rechoose for last GPs, but I've come to the conclusion that...
MO, please choose a driver other than Hamilton or Rosberg; preferably Massa or Vettel, or for real long shot Button, Magnussen, Alonso or Räikkönen, or if you absolutely want to, Bottas or Ricciardo (but for game reasons, preferably not those two; and Button and Magnussen are tactically better choises than Alonso or Räikkönen).
If you don't (by saturday), I'll just flip coin between Vettel and Massa. But I really hate doing that - call it a matter of principle or OCD - so do me a favor.
You could (in a very theoretical case) still win the whole game this year.

Re: F1 game
I'm now doing something almost unprecedented in this game.
I'm reversing my earlier judgment.
Because Mo would've suffered from me forcing her to change choice and because, due result of the race, there was no decisive effect on winning any part of the game, I declare that my previous comment is void and Mo did have her former choice (Rosberg, who won).
However, that creates a new problem for the last race. I am competing with Leo and Barb of winning driver game and that gives me priority to choose Rosberg. Therefore I also have Mercedes.
Simelius and Mo are competing with me for winning team game so, to have chance of winning they must choose (driver of) different team than I and each other. Simelius takes Bottas/Williams so...
MO, I would really like you to make a choice that may even decide you winning a game:
Vettel, Button or Magnussen (or Räikkönen or Alonso, if you insist).
Again, if you do not choose by saturday (next week), I'll flip coin between Vettel and Button.
(And this time I won't take it back because it's the absolutely decisive last GP.)

Re: F1 game
The season is over and so is the game! Final results (for more details see the Game topic in Sports):
Driver Game:
Li0nh3eart: 78
Kaunisto: 60
Barbara: 36
Morwen Oronor: 24
Simelius: 18
Petal: 0
Team Game:
Kaunisto: 69
Simelius: 57
Morwen Oronor: 47
Li0nh3eart: 37
Barbara: 30
Petal: 0
Total Game:
Kaunisto: 25+18=43
Li0nh3eart: 25+12=37
Simelius: 10+18=28
Morwen Oronor: 12+15=27
Barbara: 15+10=25
Petal: 8+8=16
This is the first time Leo wins a game (of 11 so far), proving late entrance is worth a try.
This is second Total Game win for me, putting me even with Petal and Simelius (except mom has one individual game win more than us).
That's it... for three months.
See you season 2015!

Re: F1 game
You know the drill, people. Like U2 says, "just give me what I want and nobody gets hurt".
Just choose one of these drivers (or preferably, you can choose 2 or 3 drivers and I'll see you have them alternating through season):
(world championships)
Favorites (Mercedes):
Hamilton (2008, 2014)
Rosberg
Top challengers (Ferrari, Red Bull):
Vettel (2010, 2011, 2012, 2013)
Räikkönen (2007)
Ricciardo
Kvyat
Dark horses (Williams, McLaren):
Massa
Bottas
Alonso (2005, 2006)
Button (2009)
This year game is the simplest kind, you get the points your driver does in each GP.
Just name a driver or two or I'll be begging next month and half. Then you won't need to do anything more till November.

Re:
I'll stay with Ricciardo. I think he'll improve this year.

Re: F1 game
I wouldn't bet so, but then again I certainly didn't expect him to do that well last year. And now he's Red Bull's #1 driver from the start, as must as the team has one.
Thank you for participation.
One down...
