I'm out on the 4th July in Turkey.
11th July would be best for me.

Well the 11th is looking favourite at the moment, but I guess we wait for The BERC to confirm......

I can do the 4th or the 11th.
I probably won't do either, because I'm fundamentally lazy. But I'm available for both.

It looks like the 11th is most popular, sorry Al.
One possible idea on points scoring is that only your top 5 scores count toward your final points total, similar to the ATP Tennis rankings, I think the men take their top 20 results from the season to give their final points tally. Therefore missing one event won't heavily penalise anyone that much, any thoughts on this suggestion?

My preference still lies with one of the joker options either, by nominating before the start of an R15, that you wish to use your joker or when you hand your time into the BERC. I suppose the first option relies solely on your luck, whereas the second option does at least give you some clue on whether its a good time to use your joker.

I like the joker option, but only the second option as at least you should have a reasonable idea if it is worth playing once you have finished.... Also on the last R15 I knew we were ahead of a couple teams at some point, although of course this can change during the event!
Also I am happy to go with the top 5 scores system.....
