Anyways woukdnt expect you to cough up 35 dollars for the contestComment -
If you want to go back to worming your way out, here is the thread to explain yourself.
DS wants to know if/when you do pay it btw ;-)
A scumbag is a scumbag whether he cheats one person or everyone..Comment -
Not worming out of anything in my eyes we are all sqComment -
Yeah no way in hell i would play anything on NASCAR.com.
I doubt I play anything though without espn Doing theirs. But hey gives all u guys a much better chance of winning. LOLComment -
One thing if we do one . Need one that allows you to create groups. Much easier for CD to score each weekComment -
This place allows us to run our own Fantasy league, and set it up the way we want.
We can choose to have it with a salary cap like the ESPN game. With the same floating trade value system so you can increase your salary cap by buying/selling drivers at the right price. Pretty much exactly the same as ESPN I think.
It costs $55 for up to 50 players. And does not have to be paid until after the 6th race of the season.
That's equivalent to about 800 points... between 20 players about 40 points each.
Maybe make it worthwhile for the Administrator who coughs up the 55 bucks by each of us paying him 100 points to play for the year.
I had a good look at the setup options and it looks pretty easy.
Would you want to admin this (including paying the $55) CarolinaDaze?

Just reading everything now, let me look a few of these over, Opti I wouldn't have a problem with the $55, as long as the site is legit & a fun set up.Comment -
I notice you have to set up the Salary Cap for each driver, guess that means they don't change automatically every week either. Heres Quote from site:
1. Salaries - You choose the salary for each car/driver, the salary cap the teams must maintiain and the number of cars/drivers each team can draft.Comment -
Hmmm... I thought they set the salaries and varied them as we went. Maybe an algorithm changes them automatically based on results using our starting salaries.
Agree it is a bit of a pain if we have to set each driver's starting salaries without any guidance.
Do you want to ring/email them or should I?.Comment -
I'm off work this weekend, i'll look over all the sites we mentioned above. Hopefully I can narrow it down to about 2-3 game sites and we can chose from that list.Comment -
What's up guys? Are we starting a new league somewhere else?Comment -
I've played that contest for about the last 15 years. Always thought it was the best one around (that I've seen). But the entry fee keeps going up while the payout (used to pay $50k-to-win) goes down.
I think it's pretty tough to do well in it by only having three trades, which is what you get for $35. You almost have to have unlimited trades, which bumps the entry fee up to $100.Comment -
Yeah sounds like a waste of money honestly. Depending on # of entriesComment -
Why don't we just stick with what we've got? It's been work'in pretty good.
Comment -
Post 11 in the Ashes thread makes it pretty clear you were angle shooting from the start.Then by not responding to all of Opti's remarks about the exchange rate when you were clearly reading/conversing with him for that hour almost within the minute of a post further demonstrates that you were going to claim ignorance if you lost.Comment -
As for the Nascar contest I'm down for whatever siteComment -
Comment -
I sent an email to espn, to try and find out what's go'in on.
Comment -
They lost main sponsor for stock car challenge. Has nothing to do with Jayski as Jayski site owned by ESPNComment -
Such a shame as enjoyed playing the espn gameComment -
Fuk'in espn! They can't keep a fuk'in sponsor for shit! Same deal with Streak for the cash! It's was 50k a month now down to 20k! Those cheap bastards, they could sponsor the Nascar game on their own.

ok, my wheels have been spinnin' for a few minutes so here's my concept for our very own in-house SBR Nascar Forum Fantasy Racing League:
week 1 - the crapshoot known as Daytona, just pick any 5 drivers for your roster, and tie-breaker of # of cars finishing on the lead lap. 2nd tie-breaker is earliest entry.
week 2 and the rest of the season -- each driver has a salary based on their season points rank, so the driver that wins daytona will also be the points leader for the season and would have a salary of 1, 2nd at daytona has a salary of 2, etc. after each race the drivers salary will change based on their season points to date. With this method we don't have to make up our own salary's like the idea from above. And, each roster has to have a MINIMUM salary of 60 pts so we can't just load up with the top drivers every week.
You can only use drivers in the top 43 for the season on your roster, that way we can't load up with ringers on road courses (unless thay happen to be in the top 43 for the season).
the weekly thread will start with the season points ranking so there is no confusion on any drivers salary for the week.
I'm sure theres more details to add but my brains tired now. just a thought for our own if we can't find a good 3rd-party site.Comment -
Not a bad idea rickie, might be quite a lot of book keeping thought to keep up with everybody's stats. Maybe we could borrow the stats and driver points from another site like yahoo or where ever and just apply it here like you said and run it ourselves? So pissed at espn for not renewing this contest.Comment -
great Idea Rickie I like itComment -
I'm sure ill okay in any u guys decide.
Not it a bad idea there rickie, depending on how easy be for CD to grade and keep track of every week. I'm not even gonna look at yahoo, ect sites ill just probably play no matter what u guys decide to do. Cause none will be near as good as the espn we always have played so.
Only about 3 weeks til speed weeks are starting up boys!!!!!!
wooohoooooooComment -
Nice ideAs rickieComment -
stupid ass espn, that network suck balls!Comment
