I agree. but, i think everyones been burnt, by this. but, i like how it is. but, next year will be better Yeah, and if we set the pick time to 8:59 then we would have 8:58 picks. You know, if Gaia displayed the seconds in the post time, I bet you my first invalid pick would have been 8:59:59pm or something close to that. I came up with this a few weeks ago in here, is for us to have a 'Golden' minute. Where every pick made at 9:00pm would count, even it was the same driver as someone else. But a pick made at 9:01pm or after would follow the normal rules. This way you're not frantically mashing the 'submit' button right as the clock changes over for fear that someone will beat to your driver, but make it very difficult if not impossible for someone to intentionally copy your pick. Maybe we could throw this in for next year?

But how would we test it? We can debate all we like about how a rule should work, but not until we actually start making picks will we find out how it really does. Maybe we could have a mini test season? Maybe have 10 drivers, 5 races, use a formula and use Gaia's dice roll system to determine the results. The car number equals the strength of the team, Car #10 would be like Jimmie Johnson, while car #1 would be more like Paul Menard. The bonus is how well the driver does at that track. Add a random number to the mix to represent luck. e.g. Car #10 gets a 3 point bonus at track 1 Car #2 gets a 4 point bonus at track 1 Car #6 gets a 8 point bonus at track 1 etc. You roll a 100 sided dice when you pick, then add the car number, the track bonus and the dice result together. Highest number wins, second highest number is second. I know it's kinda complicated, but I can't think of another way to simulate races. I'm open to suggestions though...

This seems way more confusing.. even if two people made the same pick for the same race, whoever made the pick would come up first, ohhhh WAIT I JUST THOUGHT OF SOMETHING KINDA LIKE THE UNLUCKY DOG RULE.. The highest finishers of the race pick last.. Ex. first place finisher picks last for the next race.. and last place finisher picks first?? but this only goes for the first day of picking. after that tuesday its fair game for anyone.

Id also like to add. it would be better no time limet just have it start on tuesday. and the points will be diffrent. and next year. if people pick jj and jg and say soul pick sam hornish and jeff and jimmie lose engines and sam hornish wins. soul opens up the points. just gotta be smart. theres a diffrent competive stand point. no 9pm stuff just tuesday.--->friday is the cut off day. will make things more intresting
