Bump for the afternoon crowd...

We got 3 so far. We had over a dozen weekly active players last year!

 

[ultimatebob]

One more bump and run for this post...

Only four participants so far.

Only four participants so far.

Whoa! I was sure ATOT had more mouth breathers than that.

 

[darrontrask]

I'll try and recruit a few more. and Olds..Chuck you Farley! LOL! Jump in!

Kyle will win the cup! Or a race or 2 or not....who cares. Bring on the speed!

 

[ultimatebob]

I think that they just fear my dominate performance from last year

OK, OK... I came in third, but I'll do better this year!

 

[lupi]

I'll join this weekend.

wow is that site and chrome not getting along.

 

[todpod]

I got in with chrome

 

[ultimatebob]

Chrome worked fine for me... odd.

In

last night when I went to register it took about 20 minutes, pages kept hanging or displaying blank.

I'm in, not liking the set-up though. Prefer Yahoo's method.

Yeah... I'm liking that I can start my favorite drivers 12 times a season, though. I was out of good drivers by the chase last year

 

[lupi]

damn whoever started that wreck, had junior as my lead driver in both polls!



woohoo, 1st anyway!

 

[ultimatebob]

This system really seems to give a big bonus if your "captain" does well. I'm not sure if I like that or not... I guess I need to hope that my luck in picking drivers that finish in the top 5 holds out

 

[lupi]

Tried to log on to do picks, and the site gives under maintenance message. Haven't seen something this bad for a fantasy page in years.

 

[ultimatebob]

Weird, I didn't have any problems picking my drivers yesterday.

This sucks... I wanted to move away from Yahoo's site because of it's stability problems, only to end up at another site with issues.

Dang it. I had Morgan Shepherd on my team this week. I figured he'd be good for some bonus points since he qualified 42nd and his average finish in 9 races on this track was something like 19th. Too bad he went out with brake problems after 28 laps. Dead last for one whole point.

How much is the qualifying -> finish improvement bonus weighing into your picks? A driver who qualifies at the back and finishes in the top five could be worth more points than the someone who qualified AND finished top five with this system.

I wish there was an app for android!

It did for Daytona, since you can easily get from the back of the field to the front if you have a good car. It didn't for Phoenix, though, since you're stuck with a bad pit stall that will slow you down if you get in the back 20 spots of the field.

 

[amdskip]

I'm not liking this setup. It's pretty much only based upon qualifying and having a better finishing position. Qualifying positions don't have much weight but they sure do here.

 

[Paladin3]

Damn. 169 points. Another crap week for me.
