Re: 2017 Daytona 500 - Sunday Feb 26, 2017
I'll man up and take what Earnhart dished out Sunday. But if we go with a "wreck", I'd wouldn't mind tossing a 37th finish to start the season.

Since guys may have been deterred from picking by the update outage, my suggestion was to keep picks that were submitted, but to discount the 43-point penalty for missing a pick by half or some other amount -- maybe it costs only 25 points this one time.
I'll go with Kurt's call.

It looks like we have all of the regulars from last year plus we picked up some new guys too!!Beverlx wrote: ↑Mon Feb 27, 2017 10:06 pm Since guys may have been deterred from picking by the update outage, my suggestion was to keep picks that were submitted, but to discount the 43-point penalty for missing a pick by half or some other amount -- maybe it costs only 25 points this one time.

I like Bill's idea with a little bit of a twist on it. For those who were not able to get in on the first week or were deterred due to the site being down, we will give you Jamie McMurray in the #1 car who had a 28th place finish. That will put you in the middle of the pack.
Same rules would apply that you will not be able to pick McMurray again until after the Chase starts (week 27).
That's the proposal. Let me know what you guys think!! With the wreck fest we saw this past week, I don't think it will matter much 35 races from now.

Re: 2017 Daytona 500 - Sunday Feb 26, 2017
Well a 28th is fine for those that missed it, but give the same points to those of us that finished past that, no sense penalizing for picking early

Good point. It's a long season so anything that happened in week one probably will not matter in the end.kamsquared wrote:I don't think it will matter much 35 races from now.
Focus: Cones and flats from Michigan, South Bend, and Fort Wayne. Foreign cans only if I bought them myself in the country of origin.

Re: 2017 Daytona 500 - Sunday Feb 26, 2017
I'm not trying to penalize anyone, just trying to get more new butts in the seats to make it more competitive (and fun). If I don't hear from anyone who wants to join that was deterred by the RB forum outage by COB on Wednesday, the points are what they are!

one suggestion is a second drop race. Just throwing it out there.

Ok, I didn't receive any requests to join up from any other members so I will leave the points the way they are. I'll have the results posted shortly, along with the Atlanta race pick thread.
