Gonna be away in future weeks?
Future scoresheets will always be available on the site so while you’ve got time you might as well get some scores down eh?!
Or, why don’t you be ultra-modern and use your phone to submit your scores! Dan H has worked tirelessly to enable & improve access via mobile devices so it’d be rude not to…
That’s it for this week – oh, you on Twitter yet? Follow us on @PabsPAS and remember to add the #pabpas to see your tweet on the site!
Cheers,
Pab
ps – please be aware Week 2 kicks off at 5 o’clock on FRIDAY!
pps – a message from Gareth M – “How’s things going? I’ve just launched a new website – may not be everybody’s cup of tea – but thought i’d flag it up to all PAS members – It’s outdoor sports and travel. Running, surfing, climbing, cycling, triathlon, travel, cool photos and interviews, that kind of thing.
Hola!
One game to go (which is already in progress) so we’ve cranked up the super-matrix so the valves heat up nicely in order to generate the Week 1 results for posting tomorrow…
We had a few minor problems (natch) but from 75 entrants, 66 of you managed to enter scores with the other 9 genuinely “forgetting” or “tactically leaving it to Mr 2-0″….so, well done you! You make me sooooooooo proud!
Still a few payments to come in but we’re nearly there – once everything is in, we can confirm the prize money splits (it’s looking good!)
You should all get this on your chosen email addresses but if there’s any you wish to add (or take off) please let me know.
Week 2 (and 3) scoresheets are live on the site but all you early birds out there please note Germany are playing Rep of Ireland not Norn Iron as it appears at the moment. The superbot responsible for fixtures has been decommissioned and a big thanx goes out to Charlie H and his eagle eyes…
Full round up coming soon – we did it people, we did it. #throwoutthemagicmarkers
Cheers
Pab
Hola!
A few teething problems but i think we’ve smoothed it all out now – here’s a quick simple guide to get you started (please refer to the FAQs sent out the other day for more help!)
1) make sure you’re logging on to the “live” site (not the “beta test” site) – www.pabspace.co.uk
type it in if you’re not sure, bookmark it & then delete any other bookmarks you may have for PAS!
2) username = initialsurname (pfernandez)
3) password = weird set of characters sent round the other day – all previous passwords used before this email will NOT work. If you’ve forgotten or deleted the email, get in touch & we’ll do you a new one ASAP
4) make sure you have a vote on “Bet of the Week” (green panel on the right) – this will determine where the bet money goes to hopefully add more money to the funds. Do it! It’s easy!
5) get predicting! remember to click “save” down the bottom once you’ve finished & remember you can chop & change as much as you want as long as it’s at least a minute before the kick off time!
6) if you’re still baffled or confused we’ll be online all tonight and from about 7 tomorrow morning…
Cheers
Pab
ps – looks like 72 entrants which is fantastic – thanks for all your enthusiasm!
We kick off on saturday morning (12.45) so get yourselves logged in and familiar!
Remember to vote on the “Bet of the Week” panel – it’s easy & it’s important!
Ok, just in case you’re stuck – here’s some useful info…
1) where’s the website?
www.pabspace.co.uk – your one stop shop for all of your predicting needs!
2) how do i get in?
you can view all of the tables, BotWs and roundups by just visiting the site however if you want to submit predictions or cast your vote for “BotW” you will need to log in!
so, just enter your username and password!
forgotten? then just click here to enter your email and request a new one! then log in, change it to something you can remember and away you go!
3) username? what’s that?
for most users it is your first intial followed by your surname (paul fernandez = pfernandez) however this may not be the case if someone has already stolen your name so if this doesn’t work worry not!
just email [email protected] to request a reminder if you need one!
4) password – what is it?
when the website was first launched you should have received an email from [email protected] with a new password.
however if you have forgotten your password just click here to reset it by entering your email address.
5) can i change it?
of course, just click edit profile and enter your new password.
remember! don’t choose anything too simple, it’s a big bad world out there full of e-cutpurses & thieves!
6) how do i do my predicting?
click on ‘my predictions’ and choose the week you wish to predict for. don’t forget you have the choice between a traditional table layout or a new style so predict it your way!
7) can i change my scores?
so long as the game hasn’t kicked off you can change your scores as often or as little as you want. not too sure if you will be back in time from the pub, try submitting on a smartphone! or if you’re from london, on your tablet that’s housed in a gucci cover…
8) how soon to the kick off time can i submit a score?
as close as you are willing to cut it!
however, we would strongly advise you submit no closer than 5 minutes to the kick off time! just to play it safe…
9) can i see my scores after all the kick off times?
access your old scores in the same way you did to predict the scores but note that you are now unable to edit the scores (cos that would be, like, silly)
10) i like paper – how do i print my scores?
just click on the print button.
please be sure to check the print preview to avoid any 20 page shocks! we like trees here at pas towers…
12) how do i play a joker in the cl/cup?
just choose the tick box next to the game you want to be your joker and keep your fingers crossed…
13) where’s the league table?
just click on the name of the relevant competition to view the tables. the main season table will always be the homepage though to keep everything nice and easy to find. cos we’re nice like that!
14) can i get updates sent to more than one email address?
of course! just email [email protected] with your name, username and the additional email addresses you want to receive updates to and we will do the rest!
15) how do i get in touch to complain, whinge or praise?
just click on the contact box and let it all pour out…naturally the more constructive your feedback, the easier it is for us to go about improving the site for you! and the more we’ll like you too…
16) where are your scores? don’t want you lot cheating…
our scores will be available here every gameweek at 10am for public scrutiny/humiliation. ahem….
17) what’s that “utc” all about?? have i missed the kick off time??!
think of UTC as an hour ahead of GMT and you can’t go wrong, well, you could, but i’ve just told you how not to…
hopefully we’ll have it all fixed proper like, before the clocks go back (but then it falls in line doesn’t it??!)
18) is the internet, like, magic?
getting information off the internet is like taking a drink from a fire hydrant…(“that’s tekkies for you” – el presidente)
Hola!
Are you ready? I think we are…
We need you to do AT LEAST the following AS SOON AS YOU CAN! (yep, it’s that important i’m cyber-SHOUTING!)
1) You’ve had your log-in details – have you logged in? Go to www.pabspace.co.uk (bookmark it!!!)
Have you changed your password? You really can you know & you need to cos those new ones are quite devilish aren’t they?!
Then log in again & get used to doing it cos it’s gonna happen a lot over the next 13 weeks or so. Oh, and make a note of your new memorable password & keep it somewhere safe!
2) Have a play & explore of the site – we made it all for you!
Stick some scores in just for the hell of it, maybe put a 10-0 in for a laugh, a Man Yoo win or a loads of 2-0’s – yeah crazy stuff! Fear not though as you can change/edit them as many times as you like until 1 minute before the kick off time! (but maybe leave the Man Yoo one hehehe…)
3) Check out the new “Bet of the Week” that EVERYONE contributes to!
Follow the instructions on screen and we’ll do the rest (but cast your votes well before 10am on Saturday please as that’s the point where we get the abacus out to see where the money is going)
4) PAY YOUR MONEY!
If you already have, thanks, you’re a star! If you haven’t, get a wriggle on and get it sorted as soon as please!
5) Any questions, queries, praise, criticism, insights or ideas please send it all to the following email address
[email protected] – we’ll get right back to you!
Any banter or any of the above you want to go public (in 130 characters!), remember to use #pabpas on your tweets!
All good? Muy bien – you’re about to make history, be proud of your bad self…..
Cheers,
Pab
…congratulations to Gareth Morgan on his CL victory – surely the only Sp*rs fan with a smile on his face!
That concludes the season, once again, thank you all for taking part – we’ll see you in September…
Cheers,Pab
Congrats to Paul Campbell completing only the second ever League & Cup double!
I’m sure he has his beady eye on the CL next season.
Speaking of which…
Cheers,Pab
PASers,
This year’s PAS Cup Final will be contested by last year’s losing finalist (and this year’s CL finalist!) Gareth Morgan & our current League champion, Paul Campbell.
Potential doubles all round then…!
Attached is the scoresheet just in case you’re curious… & you’ll be updated on the result.
Cheers,Pab
PS – FYI Mr 2-0s &#pound;20 went to these guys yesterday – MCRs homeless have had enough PAS money of late!
Thanks again for taking part – I would say it’s been a pleasure but posting my lowest finish EVER put a dampener on that :-(
Congrats to all the winners – your prizes will be with you soon!
We really are *this* close to going fully online next season – imagine, no more Word docs to fill in & send by email!
For definite, we’ll see the Top 32 (for PAS CL) in September when kick off PAS Lucky 13 Winter 13, hope the rest of you will join in too!
Remember, spread the word and get all your people involved for next season – have a fab summer!
Cheers,
Pab
PS – Wondering what the weekly “bands” were? Wonder no more & make a playlist!
Follow! Follow! Follow! we are on Tw-it-ter… @pabsPAS
