YESSSS!!!
Its about that time folks! Time to hear the roaring of 43 engines going speeds in excess of 200MPH at Daytona.
I can't wait!
A number of you have already asked me, if I was going to run the LVA fantasy league this season again, and I said HELL YEAH!
This contest is open to all past fantasy league participants, and any new ones that want to join as well.
Just like last year, there will be an option to pay to play this year, or simply to play for free.
The Nascar League has been set up and I am just waiting for folks to sign up and join the group.
This year's format is different then last years... They went back to the format that I really liked. One where they give you a salary cap, and you have to make that money work for five drivers. That'll weed out certain folks, who picked the same drivers every week, and did OK last year. heh heh
I wasn't too crazy about last years format, and I am glad to see they made the change! It will be more of a thinking mans game now! Yeee haww!!
Last year, they seperated the drivers between 2 groups and you had to pick 3 drivers from one group and 2 drivers from another group with no salary cap.
This year your team is given 100 million fantasy bucks and you had to buy 5 drivers that were valued differently based on skills and wins, every week and you had to stay under the salary cap of 100M with out going over every week.
The better your drivers do in any given race, the more points you get towards your segment totals.
Just like last year, there will be 3 segments of racing this season, and this fantasy league runs all 3 segments seperatley in 3 individual contests. We pay out the top 3 spots at a 60% for first, 30% for 2nd and 10% for 3rd place of total funds collected for each segment.
**newly added this year, due to popular demand....we're going to implement an "OVER ALL" winner as well this year.** This "over all" contest will be the sum of all your points for all 3 segments in the 2011 Nascar season. The prize structure will remain the same as the individual segment pay offs 60% for 1st, 30% for 2nd and 10% for 3rd ...of total funds collected for each segment.
Those who are interested in this option, must pay their (extra) $20 bucks at the start of the season, no exceptions.
Or you could just pay the $80 bucks to cover the whole 36 nascar races which includes all 3 segments plus the "over all" contest.
Just one simple rule for the over all....The "over all" contest particpant must use the same Fantasy League account for all 3 segments. If you forget the password, you can't just create another account, continue playing, and expect me to tally the different segment results for different accounts. All three segments must be played by the same account!
FYI...Segment #1 is 11 races long.....Segment #2 is 15 races long, and Segment #3 is 10 races long.
Also wanted to add that if you forget to change your line up, picked a driver that wasn't racing that week, or forget to setup a line up when the segments get cleared out, at the end of each segment, but you already paid....thats your problem. There will be no refunds!
If you do forget your password...contact ESPN and they will reset it for you.
***If you are interested in entering this contest, for free or pay to play for cash prizes, please feel free to PM me and I will send you the league invite with all of the information on how to pay.
I wanted to thank the kind folks that particpated in last years contest, and made this an exciting Fantasy game to be involved with.
Expect more of the same for this year, and I hope we can get this game loaded with good, friendly, competitive, shit talking, folks, and make it a HUGE POT to play for this year!
Thank you, and Good luck!
