Kathy 728 Posted September 2, 2010 CANARY CHALLENGE 2010/2011 Entry for this seasons competition has now closed. Thanks to all of you on the message board who have entered, and sorry for nagging. We had 247 entries which means we have raised approximately £350 for the academy. Well done everybody! How the competition works You will start scoring points from Sunday 5th September and every subsequent Sunday until the end of the season. Your predictions will be matched against the way the table stands at 9.00 am on the morning of the Sunday. How to find out how you are doing The Canary Challenge league table can be viewed on the NCISA website www.ncisa.co.uk .on the competitions page. Prizes At the end of the season, the top three places in the table are the prize winners. In the event of ties for any of the places, exact position predictions come into play, starting at the top of the table and working downwards. If there is still a tie (very unlikely!) then the entry I received earliest wins. Please feel free to email me with any questions, or if you feel your point score isnt right. There are occasionally teething troubles at the start of the competition, but I can usually soon iron them out. Good luck everybody. Kathy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes its a long hard slog entering all the teams at the start, but an anorakish fascination for Excel a few years back, has made running the thing a piece of pish. I just have to type the top six and the bottom three in, press a button and Bobs your uncle. Butler if you look very close at my cell formulas, relative cell references and nested ifs, you will see how its all done. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
