    Do you folks want to do the same Yahoo! game we did last season, or pick another one?
    Look around and let me know.

    Also, we need to decide ahead of time how we will crown our champion: total points, 'chase' points, total points plus drop the worst week from each segment, or what?

    My vote is NOT 'chase' points unless we have enough entries to make it worthwhile, because if we do the 'chase' points then we will need to automatically disqualify 75% of our entries when the 'chase' starts: remember the 'chase' races are just another 'segment', but only the top-12/14 in points count in it, whatever nascar decides.
    Whatever you decide is what we will go with, but don't reply unless you are going to be joining our group.

    sorry, didn't see this one :eek:

    I agree, no chase points. that defeats the first 3/4s of the season.

    I liked the yahoo league. I'd be cool with that one again. the only thing I don't like is dropping the worst races...I think it should be total cumulative points.

    I'm not voting unless we need a tie-breaker.
    I can go any which way, makes no difference to me.

    We can do two leagues, Yahoo and Fox or whatever, I don't care, all I know is FOX has the crappiest fantasy football site.

    who has leagues?

    NASCAR has one but I'm sure you get spammed to death.

    Yahoo, of course.

    FOX.

    anyone else?

    This is why everyone in the world has 'throw-away' e-mail accounts set up, and EVERYTHING that comes to them either gets sent to trash, or deleted outright once the 'confirmation e-mail' is sent and replied to.

    I have several too, but you still have to clean out those accounts every so often :eek:

    I saw you cross-posted in the NASCAR 2011 thread, may want to do the same in the NASCAR 2012 thread too. I had fun last season with 8 or 9 guys in the league, it would be pointless if it was just you and me.

    One thing we won't do: 'Chase only decides the championship'.

    Reason being then nobody even has to play, until September when the Chase starts.

    I'm in,
    Here's a thought, Section winners and then over all winner.
    So Spring, Summer, and Chase winner then we have an over all winner. Doesn't really matter though since we're not really playing for anything. :)

    I wouldn't mind playing for something... not necessarily monetary. maybe we can whip up a silly trophy or something.

    either way if I win a section I'm definitely going to brag about it :D

    I can chip in for a silly trophy as well. It just can't have a Ferrari logo on it. (Wouldn't go with any of my McLaren stuff)

    Bragging rights.

    I don't think we have enough folks to really make it worthwhile, we had, what, 8 or 9 last season and 2 or 3 'quit' early on.

    Yours truly, MR. Sir CHAMPION

    ha!

    I think a roving trophy would be hilarious. winner from each "season" then passes it along to the next; full season winner gets to bask in its glory all winter :D

    Laughing at you sitting at Applebee's by yourself. :D

    As for business matters, I say just stick with Yahoo, no chase points and no dropping worst race.

    Yes.
