Dear N-Prizers,
As you know, the current deadline is looming (again). I know of a handful of teams who are, with a bit of luck, pointing in the right direction and almost ready to light the blue touchpaper; but, at the same time, I know that no team is likely to win either of the prizes by the current deadline of Sept 19th 2012.
Therefore, I am making a final extension of ONE CALENDAR YEAR, taking the deadline to September 19th 2013. This will be the second and absolutely definitely final extension, and I am still hoping to be poorer by £9,999.99 (or, ideally by £19,999.99)! Heck, if nobody wins the prizes by Sept 2013, I'm just crazy enough to try myself.
Remember also that both prizes are still first-past-the-post.
IMPORTANT: Although currently-registered N-Prize teams will be able to compete for the prizes until Sept 19th 2013, the N-Prize will be CLOSED TO NEW ENTRANTS from the current deadline of Sept 19th 2012. So, if you're planning on a last-minute bid for the stars, you will need to register in the next few weeks.
Yours,
Paul
