New Process

The Footy Naps admin has been a bit of a mission the past couple of years, but I think I've finally cracked it with the help of the awesome Google Docs software.

You may have noticed that the Jotform link doesn't have a week specific URL any more, which is because we will be using the same one every week and the selections should be fed automatically into a fancy new document I have created.  This will be the link every week:

http://www.jotformeu.com/reevio/footynaps

It will still need a bit of manual intervention in order to prevent revealing all the tips until Saturday - and to plug in the results - but generally will all be quite neat and more automated.  Typical that we have a lower turnout this year then!  You can access the latest tips list and table via the top "sticky info link" on the left of this page.

A couple of things that will help me out when completing the form each week:
  1. Remember to put the correct week number on the form (although i'll try and autopopulate it with the right number each week)
  2. Enter the odds in the correct format - so [number] / [number].  Evens is 1/1
Once I've checked out my account for the monies and chased up any stragglers (Brookes brothers?) I'll let you know what the payouts will be.  If you know anyone else who wants to get involved then they can still join on -£1 which I don't think is much of a handicap (as half the field are in that spot already anyway!)

Good luck!
