MICrocosm 1262 - 1, May 29, 2016 - $20 WIS GC Topic

***$20 WIS GC to the winner of this contest***

Ladies and Gentlemen,

I present to you the greatest, single day racing game in the history of the world (lol, don't take me too seriously)...MICrocosm 1262!

The rules are quite simple. Choose 3 drivers from each race, the Monaco Grand Prix (M), the Indianapolis 500 (I), and the Coca-Cola 600 (from Charlotte, NC, USA)(C) before the start of the Monaco Grand Prix.

Then choose 1 "WILDCARD" driver from one of the races (Monaco, Indy, or Charlotte) as your 10th selection to earn points for you. Keep in mind, there will be 22 starters in the Monaco GP, 33 in the Indianapolis 500, and 40 (most likely) in the Coca-Cola 600, so from a probability standpoint, the wisest selection would be a 4th F1 driver as opposed to a 4th IndyCar driver, or a 4th NASCAR driver.

Drivers will earn points according to the following format...

1st place - 50 points
2nd place - 45 points
3rd place - 44 points
4th place - 43 points

and so on, decreasing 1 point per position.

The player with the most points from their 10 drivers in this one day extravaganza will be the champion!

So again, your selections will be as follows...

1. Monaco Grand Prix, F1 #1
2. Monaco Grand Prix, F1 #2
3. Monaco Grand Prix, F1 #3
4. Indianapolis 500, IndyCar #1
5. Indianapolis 500, IndyCar #2
6. Indianapolis 500, IndyCar #3
7. Coca-Cola 600, NASCAR #1
8. Coca-Cola 600, NASCAR #2
9. Coca-Cola 600, NASCAR #3
10. WILDCARD, Choose 1 driver from either the Monaco Grand Prix, Indy 500, or Coca-Cola 600

You may submit 2 entries total with the following stipulations...

Entry #1 (PRE-QUALIFYING) must be submitted by 11:00 AM ET Saturday, May 21, 2016, with no further stipulations.

Entry #2 (POST-QUALIFYING) must be submitted by 8:00 AM ET Sunday, May 29, 2016. The stipulation with this entry is that you cannot choose more than 1 driver per starting position, thus you can only choose 1 driver starting on pole (1st) of the 3 races, 1 driver starting 2nd, 1 driver starting 3rd, etc. For instance, you would not be able to select 3 drivers starting from the 1st position, 3 starting from 2nd place, 3 starting from 3rd place, and 1 starting from 4th.

Let me know if you have any questions. Can't wait to kick this thing off, enjoy!

***Keselowski #5 is my alternate should Edwards be disallowed since I have someone else starting from the 9 slot...this way Trev can't void my win due to a technicality.

And I reserve the right to change my line-ups at any time so long as each race has not yet finished.
5/29/2016 7:03 AM
Lol, Keselowski would be that pick since you already have Castroneves starting from 9th lol...am I missing something?
5/29/2016 7:25 AM
haha, yeah, I wasn't sure if that rule extended only to the #1 through #4 starting spots or they entire field, so I'm glad I covered all my bases.

Just saw its freaking raining in Monaco, so doing some last second research to see who's good in the slop or if any of there mothers were mudders.
5/29/2016 7:40 AM
Nice...I might think about that for next year, if this damn thing ever takes off lol...it's great to battle you regardless...gl man
