2014 Fantasy NASCAR: Round 36 Homestead

[MustangRyan]

I hated to lose the bonus points, but handicapping myself would be far worse.

New picks: 2/12/42, because deuces.

You didn't get the bonus points. Your previous picks were 12/29/42.

Isn't there a bonus for sticking with picks made before qualifying? That's what I was referring to.

Are you sure you're not confusing it with Justin's rules when the F1 fantasy was running? I don't recall @MustangRyan having the same rule.

It's highly possible I have been, and this would explain why I'm so far back in the standings, but hadn't thought about it because I usually don't change picks. My bad.

Yeah, there is a bonus for picking the pole sitter and sticking with him through qualifying

Yeah I know that, but it didn't seem like that was what he was talking about, and why Ryan is confused and corrected him.

 

[Jahgee]

I think Stewart will finish 2 positions above Jr. so switching them and giving up my pole bonus

Where do you think they'll finish? I picked neither even though Jr. finished 6th here last year and I'm a Junior fan.

I'd say Jr. will get 11th, and Stewart will get 5th, though I'm probably way off knowing my luck

4/14/48

I pulled a @Dolph Drago

 

[MustangRyan]

8/14/17.

Ugh.

 

[Jahgee]

8/14/17.

Ugh.

I'm totally OK with my/our picks sucking this race!

 

[Gerarghini]

5th , 12th , 23rd

 

[MustangRyan]

Yeah, but I'm not.

 

[The Bman]

1st, 9th, 17th.

 

[Adamgp]

1st, 5th, 17th.

Was hoping Tony would get a top 10 at least, but still a pretty good result.

 

[Spacegoat]

5th, 11th & 17th.

 

[Blitz24]

I got the win, but I have no idea where else my picks finished.

 

[Dolph Drago]

I pulled a @Dolph Drago

Sweet! I've got a saying named after me now.

Anyway, my picks were 1st, 8th, and 14th. I didn't get to see the race today due to work (as usual), was Johnson just not that competitive today?

It was like the All Star Race, he never competed for the lead

 

[Dolph Drago]

Weird. Well at least there seemed to be plenty of us who picked him. Just like last week...

 

[TheBook]

1st, 14th, 25th. I got another win and another CP, but gambling on Montoya definitely didn't pay off.

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

Debated between Kenseth and JJ...getting tired of always picking the wrong third driver.

 

[Anathema]

Finally got internet connection back (and a means to access it...)

Assuming my picks from last week were used this week (I know I lost a CP because Kyle finished the race last week, while Logano/JJ didn't...) I got 2nd, 5th, and... 14th?

 

[Furinkazen]

Did you get my picks Drop? (had to submit from mobile) - they were 4/22/48...

 

[MustangRyan]

Yeah, you were in 4 hours before the start of the race.

 

[BlacqueJacques]

1st, 9th and 12th; not too bad

Round 20 Results:

Legend:
GREEN BOX = Race win - gained 1 Consecutive Pick
RED BOX = Driver failed to finish - can be used next week without using CP
(CP) = Consecutive Pick used for selection
(P10) = 10 point penalty for selection, no CP available for this pick


Notes:

No new entries are being allowed at this time, as we are more than halfway through the regular season.

The Consecutive Pick for most points scored in round 20 was won by @Chqr, with 122 points.

One entry received 2 bonus points for picking pole-winner Kevin Harvick before qualifying.

Eleven entries received a Consecutive Pick for picking race winner Jeff Gordon.

Three Consecutive Picks were spent this week.

@FireEmblem10, @jmacca, @Ganon83, @Wilbur, and @ukfan758 did not submit picks this week. All of their picks were scored based on last round's picks, and penalized 10 points per driver, if no CPs were available. No one was penalized ten points for Jimmie Johnson or Joey Logano, who were DNF last week.

This week's average score was 105 points.

Last week's average score was 88 points. This week's lowest score was 89 points.

No one picked a driver that finished worse than 23rd place (Montoya).



Please let me know if you see any errors in anyone's score. Scoring errors will only be corrected up until the start of the next race.

 

[Chqr]

Needed that win. Chase is heating up.
