Hache,
You're right man - this "sport" is kind of addictive ...

.. I'm about ready to grow a Mullett & move to Carolina

I am amazed at the bad luck DJ is having. I mean just simply hitting the wall.

Think he and park are talking

Odds are against it Lander. Each week, you may see one or two of the elite drivers crash out or have engine problems, but any more than that are not likely. As you said, this could last a long while.

we should just let it go for a few weeks, looks like it was put together to run the remainder of the year.. we could drop it to 21. this way you have to finish in the top half of the field..

for advancing to the second round of the SIRBET 500 NASCAR INVITATIONAL.......

THANKS TO ALL THAT PLAYED THE FIRST WEEK, AND BETTER LUCK TO THOSE OF U WHOSE DRIVERS "HIT THE WALL"



DUE TO THE FACT THAT I SEE PEOPLE ALREADY COMPLAINING THAT THIS WILL TAKE TOO LONG, WE ARE GOING TO ADD A NEW TWIST IN THE CONTEST, TO MOVE IT RIGHT ALONG......EACH WEEK, THE CUTOFF WILL MOVE UP 2 SPOTS.......THAT WAY, AS WE MOVE ALONG, THE CONTEST GETS TOUGHER....

IN OTHER WORDS, ALL REMAINING PLAYERS WILL HAVE TO FINISH IN THE TOP 27 NEXT WEEK, AND WE WILL TAKE AWAY 2 SPOTS EACH WEEK.....

HOPEFULLY THIS WILL MAKE EVERYONE HAPPY, AND KEEP THE DIFFICULTY UP ON THE CONTEST...

CONGRATS TO THOSE WHO MADE IT, AND GOOD LUCK NEXT WEEK....

Nice thinking Bucs.......Sorry if some of us came of as if we were "complaining"....But that wasnt the case, honest. Some of us just thought it would drag out, maybe even longer than there are races left in the season.

there may come a time, when all prize money may be split 5-6 ways,, lets say we get down to last 6, and everyone out of top 9 is eliminated, and then all 6 of us are eliminated at once,, in this scenario, is it going to be split 6 ways or--- will we be placed according to our selections on this week,, example 17th place finish beats 18th place finish for 1st place..

icon_biggrin.gif


I ALRADY THOUGHT OF THAT, AND THAT WAS POSTED IN THE RULES....

IN CASE DRIVERS ARE ELIMINATED IN A WEEK THAT GOES BELOW A MONEY PLACING, THE WINNERS WILL BE DETERMINED BY THEIR FINISH IN THE RACE THAT WEEK......

THANKS FOR THINKING OF IT THOUGH....THERE ARE ALWAYS THINGS IN THESE CONTESTS THAT U DONT THINK OF, THEN THEY COME UP....I TRIED TO THINK OF EVERY POSSIBLE SCENARIO....

it wont matter, just keep us posted week to week,,, things will work themselves out, as people are eliminated,, lets see 24 more races, drop 2 spots each week,, we will definately have this over with plenty of races left,,

Why are people in a hurry to get this contest over with???
icon_confused.gif


Who or what is it good for?

Bringing interest to Nascar
NO
This site
NO

The Sponsor
Obviously NO...


A few people who actually follow Nascar (including myself) and think they have a chance to win?
MAYBE



Not surprising its the same people that thought it would be better to pick before qualifying, with less people and less interest...

This was the most predictable race of the year, with only a couple big name drivers having any trouble and over 10% of the players are gone...

we were going to pick before qualifying, to make it tougher cecil....

we changed that due to popular demand.....

then there were complaints that we wouldnt be eliminating enough drivers, and might run out of races.....

so this is simply a way to increase the toughness for the prize.....

even if we dont eliminate many people, it would be 10 weeks before u would even have to have a driver in the top 10....

so is it possible that people could just enjoy the contest, and be thankful for what SIRBET gave us, instead of constantly bitching....

its the reason no one wants to try and run a tourney around here....

we do the best we can, you are NEVER gonna make all the people happy, i am just trying to run a fair, fun, profitable tourney...

WHY IS THAT SO HARD?

ITS FREE MONEY FOR GOD'S SAKE......
