Welcome Robber.

There will be a new thread put up early each week for the race. 22 points per week there. You end up in 3 games. 20 goes to the weekly prize, 2 goes to our regular segment long pool, and obviously your 100 puts you in the main segment 3 pool.

Good luck.

**mikejamm** · 09-02-12, 03:51 PM

I'm in for the last segment guys! Thanks and good luck to everybody!

Good to have you Mike. GL.

Segment 3 of the Weekly Picks Game will start at Atlanta next week. We will still do the same 2 points per entry segment long competition as we have with the first 2 segments.

But we will also have a side pot similar to what CD does with the ESPN fantasy game for the segment.

Pros: 100 points
Non-Pros: 20 points

I am throwing in 500 points and a couple of Pizzas to start it off so we have a good overlay. Hopefully the points pot should be over 2000 points.

1st: 33%
2nd: 23%
3rd: 18%
4th: 14%
5th: 12%
Last: Free Pizza (Must play at least 11 of 12 races in segment, including Homestead.)
Most Race Winners For Entire Year: Free Pizza

* Non-pros paid 20% of points prize amount. (you get a full pizza) Any left over points will be distributed to the top 5 finishing pro players in same proportions as main prize pool.

Please add your points to this post to play by 8th September. (non-pros may take a week longer if needed)

Leadfootfred and Luvtogamble tied with 5 winners as best for last season btw.

I'll post a leaderboard with overall season totals after the Bristol race. Just for bragging rights.

Also thinking of a 16 man knockout comp for the last 4 races of the year. 8 knocked out first week, 4 second, 2 third, leaving 2 for the final race.

Atlanta Results

21 players = 42 points added to regular prize pool.

Players in the 100 point competition are in Blue. 20% players are Purple. Everyone else is Black.

A reminder of the rules for new players.

We will end up with around 500 points for the regular pool prizes.

1st Place: 60%
2nd Place: 25%
3rd Place: 15%

Number of correct race winners picked during this segment will be the tie breaker. Split points after that.

Only each player's best 11 results per segment will count for scoring. (so we can miss a week without penalty)

I will post the final prize breakdown for the 100 point competition after next week's race when entries close.

Hey Mike, did you realize that you need to play the weekly game in a separate thread each week? Or did you just miss this week?

It's ok, as you drop your worst week anyway, but i'll send any new players a reminder next week I think.

Thanks, but you forgot your 22 in the game thread if you see this.

Richmond Results

19 players = 38 points added to regular prize pool. Now 80 points.

Vegas continues on with his high scoring ways to take the segment lead, and stretch his year long lead.

And his fellow non-pro bretheren dominate the top of the leaderboard after week 2. If it ended this way prizes would be paid all the way to Avs in 11th

Players in the 100 point competition are in Blue. 20% players are Purple. Everyone else is Black.

**Optional** · 09-10-12, 05:00 PM

19 players. 15 in for 100% and 4 in for 20%

Chicago Results

19 players = 38 points added to regular prize pool. Now 118 points.

And another low scoring race keeps things tight. Avg score of 2.2 is equal lowest for the year with Atlanta 2 weeks ago!

Either I am on a roll picking tough matchups, or team NASCAR sub forum has lost it's touch.

Players in the 100 point competition are in Blue. 20% players are Purple. Everyone else is Black.

LOWEST SCORE HAS BEEN REMOVED FROM EACH TOTAL

**Vegas39** · 09-16-12, 08:50 PM

I will go tough Matchups and running. Out of gas

I just updated the table so the scores reflect worst score ignored. (was different when you saw it a moment ago)

**Vegas39** · 09-16-12, 08:59 PM

You have made it a challenge like Ragan vs Mears

Just confirming you are all paid up from last week's winnings BG.

last year there was a separate prize for picking winners, right?

Yeah, we did not do the segment prizes last year, so it was just for year long.

It's 220 (pizza) for most winners among the side pool players this year. (rob isn't in it)

Dover Results

19 players = 38 added to the regular prize pool. Now 194 points.
