I'm looking for people to join my team for the Langley Knights Competition, which is being promoted by Groundspeak. I am not totally sure how it all works, but teams can also have sub teams, i.e. you join my team and anyone who joins your sub team also becomes a member of my team. A bit like a pyramid system.

If you wish to join my team, click here and register, you can then recruit for your own sub team. I think that it is only fair to say that you can also register to run your own team.

It also advertises that the 3 largest teams will win a prize. What that prize is I don't know.

The actual competition is this weekend. apparently you have to find real knights hiding in parks and a couple of virtual knights as well. It is a FTF comptetition with a £1,000 per knight found, which is divided between the finder and team leaders. How you search for them isn't quite clear, but you will have to use google earth/maps.

I got the highlighted part wrong. The winnings aren't divided, the finder wins £1,000, the person who recruited them gets £500, the person who recruited that person gets £250 and so on.

So if you are part of a team and are first to find a knight real or virtual you get £1,000. I hope that makes sense?

There is most certainly money up for grabs with this. Maple leaf from Down South found one of the Cyber Knights, she has won £1,000 and I should win £500 for being her team leader.

If anyone knows anyone, family or friends who live either in Folkstone or Felixstowe, it is believed the last knight is located in one of the parks there. get them to register using the link above and to go out and search. They could win £1,000.

They are looking for someone dressed like this - click here
