Help with picking a winner.

Hi,

A few guys at work have been putting £1 each into a pot for a few weeks ow and it has £300 in it. We need a way of picking a winner rather than just picking out of a hat. Any ideas?

There are 6 of us.

Cheers in advance,

The Jackal

An equal split of the funds across the whole group

alternatively -

-a quiz,
-an office based assault course (first to complete it wins),
-a poker game (last man with chips wins the pot),
-a "football pools" like challenge (pick say 5 home wins, 5 away wins and 3 draws from the weekends matches and award points say 1 for correctly predicted home win, 2 for away win, 3 for draw and 4 points for exactly correct score in ANY game)
-a who hits the hardest contest (select the judge as you will but they're probably gonna need one hell of a strong chin)

How about a Rock Paper Scissors round robin event.

Each person plays everyone else each. The matches are best of 6 "fists" with 2 points to a winner, 1 point for a draw and Nil point for a loser. All 6 "fists" need to be played as goal difference could make the difference at the end of the league season

6 of you ?
£40 each on your favourite teams to win, then £60 on a single six bet.
F*** it.

Put 1-49 numbers in a hat

Each person picks one number at random.

See what the bonus ball is in the lottery on Saturday.

If no-one wins, start again,

Could go on forever......or end tomorrow!

(ooo...the suspense.....!)

Just craptacular....
