[CUCBC Contacts] BumpIT and instant results

[1st & 3rd TBC webmaster]

Dear all,

*BumpIT is open!*

Our bumps predictions game is now into its fifth year. See
http://www.firstandthird.org/frames/results/edit/bumpit.phtml for
details of how to play. There are two versions of the game: 4-day, for
predicting the complete men's or women's bumps charts, and Daily, for
predicting each of the five days of the Lent Bumps.

If you've played in the past, are a member of First and Third or are
at Homerton and use the lard system, then a user account will already
exist for you.  Otherwise, you'll need to sign up for one (don't
worry, it's free!) at the above address.  Some new users seem to be
having problems with the email verification system.  If you've entered
and made predictions but don't appear on the list at
http://www.firstandthird.org/frames/results/edit/predictions.phtml?view=3,
or if you have any other problems, then please get in touch with me at
webmaster at firstandthird.org.

*Instant results*

We'll also be running our usual instant results services: live updates
to http://www.firstandthird.org and by SMS as soon as results have
been received by the control desk. On the day of the race, text 'fat'
and the division in which you are interested to 60300 and you will
receive a text message with the results, immediately if the race has
already happened, or as soon as it finishes. For example, if you text
'fat w2' then you will receive results for the second women's
division.

The text you send is charged at your normal rate and the text you
receive costs 12p. For more details, go to
http://www.firstandthird.org/frames/welcome/wapinfo.shtml.

Good luck for the bumps and, more importantly, for BumpIT!
