Fantasy Predictor Cup: All-Star

2

24over48

Guest
We've been waiting many weeks for this and it is finally here. The All-Star Race will be jam-packed with some of our best competitors in our Sprint Cup division. All players who have won a race in 2015 or so far this year in 2016 will compete in the All-Star Race. All those who have not won a race will have to earn their spot in the main event.

Those already locked into the All-Star Race need to post predictions for the All-Star with ONLY the All-Star drivers. If a Sprint Showdown driver races their way into the All-Star and finishes in the Top-10, everyone will miss out on those points then. That way it is fair across the board. Those in the All-Star Race are strongly encouraged to place one last All-Star vote for those not in the All-Star Race. You need to choose 3 competitors to vote for.

Our All-Star Competitors are:

#01 Nascar Lead Lap Points
#1 The Long Shot
#4 SpeedWorld97
#5 Hinch5
#7 @DanicaFreak
#8 Kitkat8
#10 883110fan
#14 Smokegirl14
#20 Kevin20fan
#24 24over48
#29 Mik Maqracer83
#31 @pudge
#43 Petr Smetana
#44 Showtime
#60 Nascarnana
#67 Jolly Mean Giant
#69 @Blaze88
#70 Hitman Racin
#88 Braindead Zombie
#89 Dodge
#96 Slicedbread96
#97 David

4 more will be added to that list! But who will they be? If your name isn't there, you must post predictions for both the Sprint Showdown and the Sprint All-Star Race! The Showdown is split into 3 segments. Post your Top-10 predictions for the Showdown with the Segment 1 winner first. The Segment 1 winner will not participate in the rest of the race so essentially for our predictions, the drivers are then racing for 2nd, the Segment 2 winner. Again, the Segment 2 winner does not continue so then it becomes a race for 3rd. The Top-3 Showdown finishers based on these results will join the All-Star names listed above and your All-Star predictions will be counted. Also, one competitor who gained the most Fan Votes will join the action regardless of where they finish in the Showdown. If the Fan Vote winner finished in the Top-3, the competitor with the 2nd most Fan Votes will get in and so on.

@Dillon's Darlin unfortunately, you haven't played with us before and have not qualified for the All-Star Race. However, you're welcome to join our Fantasy League! Just select an available number and a color scheme to go with it. Available numbers are:

00, 03, 04, 06, 07, 08, 09, 0, 3, 9, 11, 12, 13, 17, 19, 22, 25, 30, 32, 35, 36, 37, 39, 41, 45, 46, 47, 48, 50, 53, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 68, 71, 72, 73, 74, 75, 76, 77, 78, 80, 81, 82, 83, 85, 86, 91, 92, 93, 95.

And to get into the All-Star Race, you must post a Top-10 prediction for the Sprint Showdown. Have the Segment 1 winner 1st, Segment 2 winner 2nd, Segment 3 winner 3rd, and have the 2nd-8th place finishers 4th-10th in your prediction. If your prediction is in the Top-3 based on accuracy, you will be in the All-Star Race!

@ToyYoda That is exactly what they're assuming. But this rule is in place so some don't get extra points for predicting who transfers. Those already in the All-Star Race do have to concern themselves with the Showdown. If a Showdown driver finishes in the Top-10, no one gets points for that driver.
 
I stated this in the original post at the very top. I apologize if I was not clear enough on that.

Gotcha.
