    If one of your players misses the cut (obviously your worst scorer) and is dropped do you still get the missed cut penalty? May affect who I pick.

    the penalty is added individually to each player missing the cut. so if he's your worst player, then it won't count.

    In both 2017 contests I have been in the top 3 after a couple of days, then all hell breaks and I am assed out. I have to choose some finishers and closers and not front runners

    there's no restriction on who you pick. it's never happened till now and if it does, and are in the paying positions, there will be a split. you can't expect everyone to go thru all the posts to see if they have identical picks.
