Yeah losing top players early really hurts as you stop getting "big points" early. However in your case if you remaining top 4 - Ashley, Grant Rob & Stephanie actually get to the final 4 you will be making huge gains while others will suffer. It kinda does balance out in the end.

It may not be perfect but I a couple years ago I tried to come up with an office pool that makes every week a bit more exciting rather then just hoping your 1 or 2 players (picked in a random selcetion order) avoid elimination. This is the best I came up with so far.



I am starting to think about making someone on Redemption worth 1/2 of thier points as the are truly not eliminated yet.
