Anyone Do Fantasy Fishing?

[Royal Blue]

I started a new strategy a few weeks ago and it's greatly improved my results.  It feels like Champ has a cheat code though.

Can anyone explain how the scoring works?

Seems like it is heavily weighted towards day 1.  I had 4 guys on day 3 and only got about 30 points.  None of those bums made the top 12, so looks like a goose egg for day 4 for me.

Scoring. Each Player will have points added or deducted based on his or her selected Team members’ performance. Standings are determined by a system that awards points based on final standings in each Bassmaster Elite Series event. The Players also will earn points for the 2017 GEICO Bassmaster Classic event based on a similar but modified scoring system as there are fewer anglers competing.

 

The system awards 300 points to the winner of each tournament, with a five- point decrease per position through fifth place, which receives 280 points. There is a four-point decrease from sixth (276) to 10th place (260), and a three-point decrease per position from 11th place (257) to 15th place (245), and a two-point decrease per position from 16th place through the rest of the field. Anglers who finish in a tie receive points based on a formula that adds the points of the affected positions and divides the total by the number of anglers tied for the position. The resulting number represents the number of points awarded to each angler in a tie. An angler must weigh a legal fish to register points, and those who do not are not awarded points for the tournament.

For each day they lead a tournament, five bonus points are added to an angler’s total, including the final day. Anglers who do not catch any fish in a tournament do not receive points.

Forty (40) bonus points will be added to the angler’s total who catches the heaviest fish of each tournament.

A ‘Big Bag’ bonus of forty (40) bonus points will be added to the angler’s total who has the highest 1-day total weight of each tournament.

Season Rankings are cumulative of all Elite Series events, from Elite Series tournament #1, Lake Cherokee, through Elite Series tournament #10, Toyota Bassmaster AOY Championship and the 2017 GEICO Bassmaster Classic.

Yeah it's a rolling scoring system.  The only way your score will change from day 1 to day 4 is if the anglers on your team change their position during the tournament.

I screwed the pooch on that one, My last pick didnt save so i had an empty E slot

[Ketchup]

yep my choices stunk. 

[moguy1973]

I was in good shape after the first day or so it seemed.  All downhill after that.  Crochet was my only saving grace. 

Next tourney is in 2 weeks June 2-5 down on Dardinelle. Not sure if it's all blown up like the other lakes north of there.  Should be a good one.

Kind of weird they are doing a Friday - Monday schedule for Dardanelle.

For sure - but that might help me since I cannot seem to get my picks in on time....actually it is a new strategy.  slack off then come on strong the second half of the season! 

I want to give the top 5 in the group a good head start!

Well only one day down and I am hosed. 

Brent Ehrler - 103rd.  What is up with that?

Omori - 95th - I am never picking this guy again.

Browning - 85th - He's local.

Herren 63rd - Don't know what I was thinking.

Shryock 43rd.  Did good on MLF, thought it might carry over.  Nope.

No way I thought KVD would do well in the high, dirty water, but he is #1 on the board.
