2017 NASCAR Pick A Winner Rules!!

#1

Post by kamsquared »

Alright!! It seems the majority of participants favor the rules to be unchanged from the 2016 race season so we will leave them alone.

Here are your OFFICIAL 2017 NASCAR MONSTER ENERGY RUSTY BUNCH PICK a WINNER RULES:

- Rusty Bunch Members Only
- There is no entry fee!! Anyone can enter at any time!
- Each week, pick the DRIVER who you think will win that weeks race.
- If the 18 car has 20 different drivers over the season because Kyle Busch sucks, then you can pick the 18 car 20 times!
- You are picking the driver!!!
- That DRIVER's finishing position will be added to your total, the 3 LOWEST totals at the end of the year will win a prize.
viewtopic.php?f=296&t=41695
- You can only pick a driver once for the first 26 races (Don't pick Dale Earnhardt every week!!)
- The last 10 races (the Chase) you can pick a driver again, but only once.
- New players can "buy in" at any time, but will get 43 points for each race missed.
- If you miss a week, you get 43 points.
- If you pick the driver twice, you will get 43 points and a penalty of 10 points (53 points).
- If you "Pick The Winner" you get 0 points.
- Entries must be in BEFORE the green flag flies at the start of race.
- If you want to pick early for any race during the season because you will be out of town or for whatever reason, just PM KAMSQUARED with your picks.
- Heck, if you want to pick a driver for all 36 races before the season even starts......go for it!!! In fact, you'll probably win!!!

GOOD LUCK!!!

How about one drop race ? You know, for us idiots that forget to pick one week, or again, like me, who picks the same driver twice in the first 26. I blame both on alcohol, btw.

I like that suggestion!! What does everyone think about dropping your worst finish in the first 26 races including a missed race.....?

BTW HeyMabelBlackLabel......never give up!

I think deducting your worst finish after the 26 is interesting....but not a missed race.

What about a double pick drop? I think dropping your worst race will make it very interesting.....

Hmm that's not a bad idea...better that the missed race, so the double pick would be once only during the first 26 right?

But the problem with the double pick is it could be abused close to the end of the 26.....just saying.

I would not like to drop any races. I look at it like it is my responsibility to pick every race and I should not, in essence, be rewarded for shirking that responsibility. That is not fair to someone who prepares and picks every week.

Keep it the same. I missed one last year while on vacation out of internet range in the mountains. Should have picked before I went.
If you're going to take away one of the worst finishes from everyone then take away one of the best too.

agree, it is about commitment and sets of rules. you should be able to remember who you picked and commit to picking every week, what happens after that is out of your control

What he said.

I messed up several times last year (darn Saturday night races!) but that is my own fault. If I cannot prepare properly each week, I should not win.
Focus: Cones and flats from Michigan, South Bend, and Fort Wayne. Foreign cans only if I bought them myself in the country of origin.
