We will start it from next week 27th:

1. Pick ONE TEAM that you think will win it all. This is a ONE-TIME CHOICE, so choose wisely. If you're correct at the finish line, you'll get 250 bonus points.

2. Every week you will choose the team you think will come in first and the team you think will be eliminated (or, come in last on a non-elim leg.) Each of these choices will be worth 10 points per leg, and will decrease in value the further you were from correct.

For example, if you said that Mel/Mike will come in first, and they do, you get 10 points. If you say they'll come in first but they really come in 3rd, you'd get 8 points.

Same thing the other way. If you said Jet/Cord will be eliminated, and they are, you get 10 points. If you think they'll get eliminated but they actually come in 4th place, you'd only get 4 points.

3. There will also be bonus questions for most of the legs as we go along, but not for this first leg (27th) Bonus Q's will also be worth 10 points to make things easy.

4. Every week that you remember to post your picks, you'll get 5 points for participation. If you forget to post your picks for a week, you'll get the lowest score posted by a player for that week (not including the 5 participation points).

5. For clarification, a "leg" constitutes the period between, "You have $xx for this leg of the race" until "You are the XX team to CHECK IN". A KEEP RACING meeting with Phil is not the end of a "leg".



So... first post for the pool should be:

Team to win it all: __________ (remember, you can't change this, so think long and carefully!)

First place this leg: ____________
Eliminated this leg: _____________



Here's to a good all stars season! Feel free to ask questions!

We all know I can't be trusted to get even a single pick in on time, so I'm not playing, but I'm still here cheering the PJs on. I trust Pamy et. al. will do us proud this year.

GO PJ PEEPS!!

Jimmer {{{{hugs}}}}

Please could we have the team pics added to the top of the board? If you have the time!

Also, could you give me any tips for how not to blow up the board when I post the spreadsheet? (I know you are busy so only if you have time!!)

Hah, Scuba, I paid real money to join a hockey pool this year and haven't looked at it since the 3rd week of the season! Me and weekly games right now just isn't a good idea right now - I'm just not in a place to remember to play. My daughter is still in the hospital and will be until the end of the season at least.

Maybe the PJ Peeps should rename ourselves to THE AWESOMEST WINNINGEST WINNERS and see if that does us any better, lol.

(BTW, Scuba, totally off topic, have you ever dived the blue hole or the reef off Belize?)

Uh, it doesn't matter if you miss a few and are on another team.. hmm?

I'm not fond of the team concept and if I play, I'm just playing. Or on PJ.. we'll see.

I just like to play and actually hope everyone does well.

I dont have time to really get into analysing the spoilers or clues for my weekly picks so I would really bring my team down.

I will always be a PJ but if we want to just play individual this time its ok with me.

I'm seeing a pattern here - it's PJP that aren't that jazzed about the team concept - hmmmmmm could it be because they collectively get beat each season????

It's okay with me if we just play as individuals also.....
