You look like you are guaranteed last place for the season as long as you enter the last 4 races picks. That's 400 points.

In case you didn't realize that.

Proposal For Changes To 2019 Format

Whilst we are all still here let's have a discussion about what changes are needed for next year.

Do away with the Last Place Prize?

If so, add that 10% onto 1st place to make prizes 60%, 25%, 15%?

Does anyone want to do away with 3rd place prize as well and make Prizes 70%, 30%?

----------

Season Pool.

I don't think it's a great idea having to pony up 250 points at the start of the season for this.

We averaged just under 1500 points per race pool this year. 54000 points over the season.

Right now we have 4000 points in the season pool, or about 7.5% of total points wagered.

If we add an 8 point weekly entry fee we would end up with the same prize pool at season end.

Would this affect the number of people who would play weekly? Particularly toward season end?

Maybe leave the Last Place Prize in place just for the season pool?

----------

Segment Pools.

Increase entry for each segment to make those pools larger?

We had 16, 14 and 14 in the 3 segments this year. The prize pool average is about 1450 points.

If we make it 250 each segment the prize pool would be around 3750

If we make it 350 the prize pool would be around 5250

Thoughts?

**jrgum3** · 10-22-18, 02:52 AM

I'd rather 1st, 2nd and 3rd place be rewarded and last place not get anything so I'm for bumping up the payouts for the top 3. As for season long, I'm willing to go along with whatever you guys decide but I'd probably be more willing to play for 8 points a week like you suggested than ponying up 250 points at the beginning of the season. As for the segment pools maybe make those pools larger so the payoff is bigger at the end of each segment.

**LT Profits** · 10-22-18, 07:17 AM

Personally, I would be in favor of eliminating the last place prize everywhere.

As for the middle proposal, even if we keep last place prize for season, those in the middle of the pack would still have no incentive to keep anteing up the 8 points every week. Maybe divide the year-long payment in three parts payable at same time as three segments? Also leave open the option of pre-paying in full at any time.

And yes, I am in favor of raising segment fees.

**5mike5** · 10-22-18, 07:22 AM

Def have to lose all last place payouts but no opinion really on anything else

**reigle9** · 10-22-18, 08:37 AM

"Autodonk didn't enter pool, so Reigle takes last."

wow

**Derailer** · 10-22-18, 10:20 AM

The 250 could be eliminated if the real money contest stays the same otherwise I would say keep it. I think 250 is too high for segments but good for year end. It is hard to lose and put in weekly as it is and I am surprised as many participate in the segments as they do. That will be a lot to afford and you are going to do well weekly if you do well in the segment.

People do not participate at the end due to burn out and lack of points with football and nothing is going to change that.

I would get rid of third and last place in return for a higher payout for first and second. Third is pretty small. You need more than one winner weekly but three is too many. Otherwise, I would keep things the same

**yisman** · 10-22-18, 01:22 PM

Get rid of last place.

As for number of places paid out, it should depend on # of entrants. More entrants=3 places paid. Less=2.

**Auto Donk** · 10-23-18, 08:42 AM

shit, took last and could have netted five points.... I give up

**reigle9** · 10-23-18, 09:41 AM

take all points from winner, give it to last, still shit on winner cause he has more points than you in the bank

lol but really, we usually get enough to pay out 3rd if last isnt getting anything, just make it enough to get your points back maybe and give the bulk to 1st and 2nd

**reigle9** · 10-23-18, 09:43 AM

or maybe donk and cholo can have thier own side pot for last lololol

With a 1500 avg pot, 15% = 225, 25% = 375 and 60% = 900

If we just want money back for third 10% is enough. As all races but one have had over 1000 in the pool.

Based on 1500 point pool;

65% 975
25% 375
10% 150

?

70% 1050
20% 300
10% 150

?

Now you started it, which ratio do you like better above?

**5mike5** · 10-23-18, 01:08 PM

I like that 70-20-10 split myself most to winner but really not much of a difference at all

**reigle9** · 10-23-18, 02:18 PM

hey, lets just hope we're all here next year to play

/drug induced hippy faggotry

**yisman** · 10-23-18, 04:52 PM

I prefer 65/25/10

**rickie65** · 10-23-18, 07:07 PM

I'd agree no last place prize

segments I think are good as is, except I never win one

I think we need the upfront season points to keep some interested in playing every week.

3rd gets their points back and rest of pool 70-30 for 1st and 2nd

**jrgum3** · 10-24-18, 12:41 AM

You have to enter a lineup every race to be in the running for last.

It's between you and Noles.
