jumped in.. thanks!

3 weeks down- looks like teams still trying to get a grip on how new style will handle. 4 teams making steady improvement, including perennial threat from North of the border Crazy Canuck....with Fossil Fuel trying to hang in til first round of pit stops for a wedge adjustment to fix a loose handling machine...
8 players, so prizes to top 3- 5 to winner, 2 for second, and 1 for third.
Have 4 of the entry coins- Hotwheels, Crazy Canuck, Outagas (my son's pick set), and Skidmarx (me).
Anyone needing a refresh on my Address, send me an email (same place as last season).
-
Unfortunatly, I am going to be unable to devote time this season. Have fun everyone.
-
Alright then, I am now registered as "hotwheels".
So let's get some more NASCAR fans in the action here. No reason why we couldn't have 20 - 25 teams signed-up by the Daytona 500.
Right now we have 6. It only costs one geocoin to enter. Let's go race fans!
If I remember correctly, qualifying doesn't count for the Daytona 500 because of their wacky qualifying rules. Just an FYI for any newbies to the league.
Got your entry just before the blizzard...
-
Did you send out emails to last years participants? If you did I did not get one, if not, I would like to get one.
sent with the others, let me know via profile email if you don't get the resend...

GREEN FLAG FOR REGISTRATION!!!!
-
I'm in again! I think you should keep the Lucky Dog option though.
If majority want will use it, but didn't seem to make much difference in standings or keeping involvement after 1st missed week.
Like I said, though, if majority want- will keep....

NASCAR Fantasy Cointest!
League is registering soon...
New,more 'showroom' style bods this season
A) League will be open to anyone, but password sent via email upon request- email to include team name and GC name.I won't 'share' your info and you can remain hidden on group roster... but as Commissioner it's a lot easier than guessing 'who's who?' if needed.
Same prize methodPrize coins sent to me by 3rd race, I'll distribute at end of season. This would facilitate doing following to keep a bit more interest/incentive through season:
C) Prizes to top finishers depending on number of players,first 5 go to winner then add prizes for 2nd and 3rd place. Winner always gets at least 2X 2nd place; 2nd at least 2X 3rd. Keep the game interesting for those who stumble. Also, I'll add a trackable prize for segment winners.
D) Won't use 'Lucky Dog' option if offered,unless majority ends up wanting it. Didn't seem to make much difference.
E) Will relook at tie breaker system from last year, probably stick with or close to it.
INFO AS SOON AS IT COMES OUT

Got one yesterday! Thanks 'HH'!

Seems to me (if locker renter is not registered owner of coins), this would fall into/under the usual disappeared track-able category- owner has basically relinquished control when they set it free. You set it out with the knowledge it might disappear. Best hope is that the new owner of locker either sets them free or sells to someone who'll set them off or try to adopt them from an understanding registered owner.

Received a package from a fine looking blonde family, Mom & Dad certainly have ( and will have for next decade or so!) their hands full. A bit of detective work got me close, but not conclusively) the GC name(s) of the senders... but they obviously did their own detecting as I received a coin & pin commemorating my recent 100th find! (only took me 5 years!) Thanks for a special coin!

I finally got the coins and here is the pic of all of them. I recognize most of the coins but if you could provide more specifics on them I would appreciate it!! Thanks ALL!!
Hi Glen, glad to see you got 'em ok. It's a bit of a sweat waiting for confirm with the responsibility for 'em all weighing on my reputation!
As you know, but as an FYI for all, the travel tags are the segment prizes & not a player scrimping on the deal!
2nd in from left, on bottom, is a '07 or '08 Pirate Booty (?) coin.

Glen & Ted, you're packets should arrive any day Glen listed as out for delivery yesterday but no delivery update, Ted, no tracking to Canada (BTW Ted, you've gotta move- writing that on envelope & customs form has got me cross-eyed! Especially w/o my cheater specs! Postal clerk also had fun trying to type in!)
Dave, yours will be off in tomorrow's mail when I ship out my Card & Coin mission-forgot to bring my packing tape for the 're-purposed' envelope...
-
Sorry for the delay guys. Just making sure to double check my math.
No suspense that the winner was Glen (Kensay) with a scary post to post shellacking of the field!with 9993 points (after the dog subtracted)
Trying to hang on, from North of the border was Ted (VERY Crazy Canuck/k) with 9571
Third place went to the paradise island of Maui with Mauison racking up 9422
Chasing but not quite overtaking Mauison was Kim? with whose injection of Quaker State motor wasn't quite enough,9231.
Skidmarks made numerous pit road mishaps, (didn't tighten all the lug nuts a few times) but managed to stay on the lead lap with 8958 and a 5th place finish.
Another fun season, countdown to Daytona started Sunday evening, hope to see you all again next year!
I think I have all the prize winners' addresses, but if you want, PM me to make sure.
THANKS ALL!!!!

Final race of the year already! Been a bit derelict with updates, but here's the top 5 as I figure it. Crazy Canuck had 3444 points for Spring, added to Summer & Playoffs as Crazy Canuk,,,
Kensay- 9746
Canuck/k- 9295
Maui-9159
PaRacers- 8975
Skidmarks- 8690
A runaway for Glen- don't think I'll need the tie-breaks this year!
