Default 2022 CFL Weekly Predictor

The CFL preseason is starting this weekend (I think based on the CBA) and we are only a couple weeks away from the regular season starting.

I am creating a thread to remind people who might want to play, but also for comments/ideas on scoring, etc.

The last couple years have had different games worth a different amount of points - is this still a good plan, should it be altered? I’m thinking that the value of some games being so much more than others was not ideal. Basically, when you had a dominant team, you could pick that team with a star, get it right, and have done well in the scoring for that week.

Let me know if you want to join, and if you have any other thoughts.

First off, thanks YouNeedaThneed for offering up your time and effort to doing this again. I certainly am in and looking forward to the weekly predictor challenge. As for the star team pick, I don't have strong feelings one way or the other, I think it's a neat feature that allows you to get back into contention after a poor week of picks, but if you think it's problematic and should not be used anymore, that's fine with me as well.

^ I like the star element, but perhaps just count each game as 1 point, with a bonus 2 or 3 points for the starred game?

Sure, that's fine by me. As far as I'm concerned, you're running things and can make the executive decisions lol

Thanks You Need a Thneed for running it.

I'm biased towards keeping the * system since I added this feature to this pool. I think it keeps it interesting at the top...I think I finished top 5 last year and the first half of the year I was probably in the bottom half.

In order to avoid * being put on same teams...how about you can place * on each team only three times all season? Each person has to track it themselves below their picks?

You do whats easiest for you.
