But I'm not sure if I agree with taking the worst score off each segment, since you are really penalizing the guys who play every week. Even though you are removing the worst score you are still removing points from their overall classification and more importantly you are using player starts against a guy who forgot to set a lineup and has a roster full of NE players. I'm all for doing it as easy as possible but it takes 2 minutes to fill a roster. I'll join either way.
    I'm not sure I understand your logic of it penalizing the guys who manage to make and entry each week, everybody loses a worst score. Players who score say 180 points each week will lose more points than the guys that only score say 100 points a week, but the high scoring guys will still be way ahead of them.

    There is also another factor to consider; sometimes technology fails us through no fault of our own.
    So lets say you make your picks early in the week and then without you knowing it one of your better picks W/D's at the last minute.
    Or lets say you hear about it, go to make your change and the system yours or theirs is down and you cannot make the change.
    So I say to you tough S!!T, my players are all in OK, fair of course, that's the way you want it, but actually it is not fair.
    From past experience and I also have had a lot, I would say most will go for opting out the worst week option, we will see.

        If it keeps more people participating, then I'm all for omitting the worse week.

        I enjoy playing this, so I'm in as usual. 4Under still has yet to beat me and I don't foresee that changing this year

          I am in again and vote for dropping the worst segment score.

                After 5pm today we will have the final field and I am hoping jburns can set this up as he did very well previously.

                  Yup... No problem I will set it up today.

                  I was looking at Fantrax as well (where I have all my hockey pools now) and it was interesting but could be way more confusing. I'll set-up the yahoo league and if anyone wants to try out the fantrax one just on the side. Looks like we can draft golfers into "teams" and do head-to-head points league each week. Like hockey... but with golfers!


                  Anyway... yahoo info will be posted shortly.

                      Thanks JB, hopefully we will get a good crowd, and maybe a sponsor will kick in a prize, hint,hint.
                      That Fantrax is really interesting and quite complex, for anybody that's interested here's the link

                      I notice you can start a league any time so might be good later on.

                          Just saw the final field on PGA.com now down to only 29 that's really disappointing no:
                          Jordan Spieth
                          Adam Scott
                          or
                          Mackenzie Hughes

                          So check your picks guys as Yahoo may not be up to date with this.
