Axe Elf's Matchup Lineup Contest - Week 2

[AxeElf 787]

Here's a little contest where you pick your fantasy team from the matchups contained within the Week 2 games; i.e., the Saints are at the Rams, so you pick your QB from between Drew Brees @ Jared Goff, get it?

 

Overall Standings After Week 1

Apparition: 8 (Perfect score!)

Gepetto: 5

worm: 5

defectivesupport: 4

Axe Elf:  3

LaChup: 3

Phil Simms: 3

 

Scoring

Passing:  1 pt per 25 yds, 4 pts per TD, -2 pts per INT, 2 pts per 2 pt conversion

Rushing/Receiving:  1 pt per 10 yds, 6 pts per TD, -2 pts per fumble lost, 2 pts per 2 pt conversion

Kicking: 1 pt per XP, 3 pts per FG up to 30 yds, 0.1 pt per yard for every additional yard

DST:  1 pt per sack, 2 pts per turnover, 2 pts per safety, 2 pts per blocked punt/kick, 6 pts per TD, 5 pts per 0-2 pts allowed, 3 pts per 3-10 pts allowed, 1 pt per 10-17 pts allowed

 

Pick the 1 player you think will score more fantasy points from each pair of in-game positional matchups; you earn one point for each correct pick (or tied pick).  10 points per week possible.  I am not using EVERY NFL game, but I am not using any NFL game more than once.

I don't know if I will do this for two weeks or seventeen weeks or what, but whenever I get tired of keeping track of it I plan on awarding a $10 Amazon gift card to the participant with the most correct cumulative picks.

This contest is now closed for Week 2 and subsequent weeks due to the potential for "forever" editing of entries; i.e., cheating.

Someone can do that if they want, but I kind of liked the idea of picking between standout players at each position who were going up against each other in the NFL games that week.

But hey, it saves me an hour of volunteer work to NOT have to keep track of it and make up a new contest each week, so whatev.

yes your free time seems limited.

[unclemercy 51]

this.  by nature of you quoting me, I can't edit my picks

[worm 34]

Or you could make a PDF of the thread right before kickoff.

Well, I suppose that's true, but it kind of makes a mess of the whole thread and requires me to go in and quote everyone's entries before game time Sunday (or Thursday, in the case of weeks like this where a Thursday night game is involved in the contest).  I just wanted to have a fun little contest; didn't really want to have to monitor everyone for nefarious exploitation of software-based loopholes.

Since there were only 6 people participating in Week 1 anyway, I doubt if anyone will really miss it, but hey, thanx for the interest.

i vote we restart and quote ourselves to submit entries. plus free contests are for girls.
