If I understand the rules correctly, it seems it would be an advantage just to wait until week 4 to enter. Then, for just an extra 100 points, you could pick 3 poor teams who won the first 3 weeks and have all the top teams remaining.

I split the pool last year in I think week 8 or 9. There are no easy wins no matter when you enter, re-enter, save a team, use a team, big fave, home team, divisional game, philosophy/strategy. Get in in week 4 and the only difference is there won't be but 20 or less entries. Only advantage to waiting. Picking the team to win straight up is the hardest part.

I'll take it in consideration and if there's a disadvantage to current players, will make an amendment to the rules after the end of this week.

you cant allow people to join later unless they only go against people and the pool of new points.. obviously not against the people and points who have been losing teams and advancing since week 1

If I want to rebuy my 2 out entries, can I not just.pick previous teams? What is this "submit previous winners?"

Might be a valid point. But up to week 4 if you play continuous weeks and have to rebuy for double the original buy in seems fair. I do not understand the implication that you can wait to week 4 without playing the previous 3 weeks for a 200 point buy in. Hey Spider: How will this work. Is my rebuy still in play for the big pot?

[spider]

*** There will be no more late entries for this pool.


*** there will be a new pool starting for w5 , for those wishing to
join or those who are eliminated.


*** persons eliminated this week (w2) and next week (w3) will be able to re-buy @ 200 pts, and will keep the teams they've already chosen, (in the first 2 or 3 weeks).

*** you can only re-buy the week you are eliminated,not later.

*** if you re-buy an entry and it gets eliminated again, that entry is out.

[spider]

you can re-buy @ 200 pts. you don't have to make any picks. what you've chosen previously stays. you can only re-buy in the week you're eliminated, not later.
please note that you if you re-buy and lose, you cannot rebuy again a second time.


the reference "submit previous winners" does not apply to you. it was intended for late entries, (which are now closed anyways).

yes your rebuy is in play for the big (only) pot. please note that if your re-buy loses,
you cannot re-buy a second time.

Ah whoops so I lost an entry week 1 so I'm only eligible to buy 1 in before Sunday.

Thanks
