Gee, not much voting today (except Bob, who votes often). Everybody must be waiting on the late spoilers and saying "to hell" with the bonus points

Hey Bob!! I just got a phone call from Urgrace. She's in Arkansas doing some spare-of-the-moment babysitting. She asked me to make her picks for her so our team won't tank. Is that OK with you??? Please???

HELP!!! The Rum Runners need a replacement player for Immikeswfe, who has by majority vote been made to walk the plank. We need someone who is NOT on a team with any of the following: Lumbele, Redstar, Wendo or Whit4you. PLEASE be someone who is dedicated to playing the deadpool, votes before the first deadline, and will not leave us stranded high and dry. The Rum Runners are in next to last place, but primarily because we've had a spot of trouble with team members not voting. We are a fun bunch, though, and the new member will be presented with as many bottles of rum as s/he can drink!!!

The first person who posts to this thread willing to join us will be added. BOB, can you make the change as soon as possible? THANK YOU!!!!!

I think I can join. My current team of excellent players is the Peanuts Gang. If we can join two teams add me to yours. I'll just be in two.

Owl: It's cool! I've recorded the pick. :)

Redstar: As long as someone joins your team before the show starts on Thursday, you will get their points for this week.

ACK - I doubt Babyruth is going to make it, as she hasn't been online due to playing nurse at home.

< Half wonders how Bob2112 can be on that list, when there are 4,720 entries for Bob2112 ?>

hey I'm not quite sure of Bob2112's strategy, but perhaps we should all vote every half hour.

Babyruth, I do hope she's better soon!!

Lauram.. we can't figure it out..LOL

It's After 9:00 PM!!!

The 30 Point Bonus is no longer available this week!


You may still vote until the show airs.

For the next 12 hours the Bonus is 20 Points,

and then it will drop to 10 points.

SOS!! Curvy Scurvies may need a replacement player for Prism72 who is MIA.

While we wait for the OK from the rest of the team, anyone ready, willing, and able to us shapely pirates? We are as much fun as Rupert...but not as much as Jon (and that's a good thing). Mwuahahaha

Pannie, I'd love to join the Curvy Scurvies - heaven knows I've got plenty of curves! I'll bring a barrel of rum from the Rum Runners ship. I've done pretty well with my picks so far.

Great Redstar! Thanks


Bob, Can we add Ms Redstar to the Curvy Scurvies? Thanks

Bob, I'm new and have a couple of questions.

If you vote early for the 30 bonus points and then later decide to change your vote, do you lose the 30 points and drop down to 20 or 10 bonus points (depending on the time frame) or are you still eligible for the 30 points?

Your weekly updates on the results are great. Is this a week to week competition or do you combine weekly scores for a total cumulative overall score?

I am currently on the Scourge of the Seven Seas team, but would be willing to join other teams if they need another member.

Thanks

gen, i know you didn't ask me but in case you were waiting to make a change i will answer in case bob is busy. if you vote while in the 30pt range and then change while we are in the 20 or 10 pt range then you lose out on the 30 pts and drop to whichever range we are in. hope this helps. and im sure bob can explain it better than me. but i wanted you to know before the time limit is up for the 20pts.

Squaredsc, Thanks a bunch! I do appreciate your help.

Gen: Squared is correct. You get the bonus points in effect at the time of your last posted picks. Last week a few people gave up their 30 point bonus for 10 points in order to change their picks at the last minute.

The weekly scores are combined for a total cumulative score and the results are sorted in descending order by that score. There is a column that shows your position for the previous week and how many places up or down you moved, so it easy to see who had the big week and who took the deep plunge to Davy Jones Locker!

Bob, thanks for your help and explanations. I think that I took a deep plunge last week. Hopefully better this week! I'm sorry if I'm dense, but do you add week 1 scores with week 2 scores and so on, so that by the end of the season, there is a final cumulative score over all weeks for individuals and for teams?

The Season Total column is your cumulative score for the entire season. You can see that is increases by the Week Total Scaled score each week (plus you start with 100 points).

The Week Total Scaled is computed by taking your Week Total points and dividing them by 13 for week 1, 12 for week 2, 11 for week 3 and so on until it reaches 1 in week 13 (and beyond, if necessary). This means each week's points become progressively stronger.

This Weeks Pos shows your current position based on your season total.

Last Weeks Pos shows your position last week.

Change shows how many positions you moved up or down.


So, you started week 1 in 12th place, dropped down 66 positions to 78th in week 2 and then moved back up 7 places to 71st after week 3.

The team scoring is done in a similar way, so I will not show that here.

Hope this helps you and anyone else that may be having trouble reading all the charts. Please ask any questions that you have about the scoring and the results. Maybe I'm computing something wrong and someone will find it and I can correct it. :)

Rum Runners: I currently have Twiggyish on your team as a replacement for Immikeswfe.

Immikeswfe has voted this week and has posted in your team folder.

I will leave the change in place (since you followed the rules to make it), but will allow you to undo the change if that is what your group decides before the start of the show tonight.

Immikeswfe: Please keep playing even if you are not placed back on the team. Your individual score still counts and the points keeping getting bigger and bigger as the weeks go by, so you can still win it all!
