I saw that too.   Didn't make sense at the time to me either. 

like Mike showed 

@LeviF91 is 0-90 

Life has been interesting the past two months so that’s my bad. I’m gonna start and see how many people I can overtake.

          Years ago I read that typically the winner in this type of contest finishes with a 66% win percentage.  It sounded low to me.  Over the years I have watched and that is pretty close to being right on.  If I remember correctly, last year the first two finishers were just above that.  I can't remember if I figured in the throw out or not.  At the moment position 42 and above have a higher win percentage than 66%. 

        It might make it a bit more interesting for you if you compare your position by percentage, ignoring the weeks you missed.  

 

       I believe when we first started doing this here, there was an option for auto-pick.  It was nice if you forgot a week but at the same time it would do something like picking the Jets every week.   I usually make my picks Monday or Tuesday, and then edit them before Thursday/Sunday.  I believe if you wanted to you could pick the entire year in one shot.

@whatdrought You've been en fuego from the get go with your best counted 'worst week' being 10 correct (this is excluding your 0 correct from Week 6). It's a rolling overall total so everybody's worst week is dropped, hence the 'Dropped' column in the standings. Prior to your no picks/0 correct week, your dropped week was 10 correct (Week 5). After Week 6, your prior dropped week of 10 correct was added to your counted overall correct total score and 0 correct became your new dropped worst week. That will not change for you going forward since you can't get a score less than zero. Every week from now on will count towards your total whether it's 0, 16, or somewhere in-between. 

 

@SlimShady'sSpaceForce Oddly, Week 6 was your worst week, as well, with a total of 6 correct. Unlike, whatdrought, your total is still rolling so if you have a week going forward with a total of less than 6 correct, that week will be dropped as your 'worst week' and your Week 6 will be added and count towards your overall correct total score.

Ah, I appreciate the clarity! I didn’t realize there was a dropped week. 


I definitely feel a 2000-2016 Bills level collapse coming for myself...
