Mail for help.Help!!

Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

You should have received an email inviting you to join the league - I think you have to 'activate' it

Just need @Kooky to 'activate' her email and we are a full team of 10 and ready for the 1st race at Soelden on 22nd October

Technology failure on the men's race for me! I think I forgot to save the pick somehow- anyway we are off and running. Interesting that Lindsay Vonn won't be around for a while- hope the season isn't marred by injury again like last year.

Good to see Marcel starting on form and Shiffrin back again.

Lots of DNFs and a notable DNS. But a great result from Dave Ryding.

@lynnecha, Lake Louise, Killington and Beaver Creek are all currently in jeopardy due to lack of snow.

Scores for Sue's Hopefuls after Levi

The overall scores are calculated by adding the scores for the first four races and dividing by 4 but due to the technical issues mentioned earlier Kooky and Lynnecha have only put in 3 race scores but they are still divided by 4 which skews their overall averages.

This will even itself out once 5 races have been included because the overall scores are based on the average of the best 5 race scores

Hawkwind - 317.33 - 107th
Dr Che - Almost Paraguayan -317.00 - 110th
Briand6868 - 307.17 - 183rd
Queen Bodecia - queenie - 288.75 - 369th
Davkt - Goingbackwards - 283.75 - 428th
Codyaitch - 282.17 - 444th
EarthWindandWater - Danny Simpspn - 274.67 - 524th

I believe team numbers are limited to 10 so I cant put you in as a late addition

I am not sure whether you can follow individuals if you are not in the team

Try clicking on the 'social' tab and search for the Snowhead team Members under 'following' - it might work

Bad news. I just saw Fritz Dopfers season has already ended, he suffered an shin and calf bone fracture in a trainings accident at Zillertal:(
Looks like he will be out at least 6 months.

@codyaitch, Thanks - I'll see what I can manage. The social bit of the app doesn't seem that user friendly compared to the other bits.

EDIT: Actually, it was quite easy to follow each person individually - I was just failing to find the team to follow.

The system scores for this week are all over the place and just wrong - I will put up the correct scores later

EDIT : I have completely lost the plot on how the scores are calculated

For the past few years it has been the average of the best 5 scores - so far I haven't a clue and I can't find a contact email address to ask.

I will let it run for awhile in the hope the system scores will be corrected.

Eurosport is a pile of poo. I set it to record the skiing at the weekend and I got snooker and tennis. Confused

@ajpaul, it didn't work at all last weekend. From what I can tell nothing was live as it was all usurped by snooker and tennis. But I did manage to catch the highlights from Killington.

This weekend VDI purports to be live, but Lake Louise is anyone's guess.

UPDATE - edited to correct the scores

The scores for last weekend are now on the FSR site and it appears that they have changed the calculation from the average of the best 5 scores to the average of the best 3 scores - I can't say I understand the logic !

I have added the lowest (LS) of the best 3 scores for everyone which you need to improve on to increase the overall average

Cracking start for queenie - 4th overall on the FSR list

Queen Bodecia - queenie - 424.83 - 4th overall - LS 413,00
Kooky - Elanski - 389.00 - 116th - LS 353.00
Hawkwind - 384.00 - 201st - LS 345.00
Dr Che - Almost Paraguayan -371,33 - 445th - LS 365.00
Briand6868 - 366.33 - 546th - LS 358.00
EarthWindandWater - Danny Simpspn - 361.00 - 662nd - LS 352.00
Lynnecha - 342.00 - 905th - LS 312.00
FastCarver74 - 334.33 - 961st - 311.00
Davkt - Goingbackwards - 332.67 - 976th - LS 292.00
Codyaitch - 303.83 - 1133rd - LS 298.00
