Too bad it's not based on Total Points.

[Berzerker]

thats true, we could have two different people at the top. Hmm... Thinking about it I'd say dropping 1 low week is still better than the chance of a split in total pts and our league settings. Hell, so we might have 2 winners, maybe that aint a bad thing either. But let the record books give priority to our settings with honorable mention to the total pt winner

[Deity Dude]

Oh I wasn't suggesting we change the settings and actually have no problems with them. I just wanted to pull Ming's chain a little.

[Ming]

It's still a little early to be discussing winners

I like the drop the lowest week concept. In other "contests" like this that I've been in, a person will miss a week, and then stop playing. Now, if you screw up, you still have a chance.

Lord knows I'm in so many different pools that it's very possible I miss one

[Deity Dude]

Same here - I already gave up on Lombari because it isn't on Yahoo and I miss it every week.

Actually, I do prefer this method too and believe me I wasn't predicting a winner.....

For either column

Nahhh.... The championship will be based on the total minus the worst week. Those are the settings we used.
It gives everybody a better chance even if they happen to miss one week

[Deity Dude]

Is there a tie-breaker if the season ends in a tie?
