we are trying to rig it so you cannot get your slamy...seriously though scoring to relation to par would be easier
More picks could become unmanageable. From my perspective everything seems to be working just fine! Why fix it if it ain't broke?

How about using par, but multiplying a cut players' score by 2 at the final? ... +8 after 2 rounds becomes +16 total? Still hurts but not as devastating to your score, and less devastating to the players who missed the cut by just a couple strokes.

OB,
I am ok with whatever is decided.
I do like the idea of picking 7 and using best 4 but only if 4 make the cut.
If someone doesnt pick 4 that make the cut then forget all the options to add strokes etc.
They just dont make the pool cut.
So, all the people who have 4 picks who make the cut compete using their combined scores relative to par.
This could go on with lots of options. I even like the idea of someone benefitting more for picking the winner as one of their 4 picks.
Maybe you could present options on one of your handy spreadsheets and we could take a vote?
rckn,
All options could work. I think OB is lookin for the easiest for tracking and others have had issues with the fairness of strokes associated with their picks missing the cut. I tried to address both:
Why not Eliminate tracking cut players and how to fairly add strokes?
Changing to 7 initial picks should give more people the possibility to have 4 that make the cut. At the same time it could be easier to track after Friday's rounds since only the people with 4 players who make the cut are tracked and only 4 players per person are tracked instead of tracking 5 or more players and adding strokes. Only the people in the pool who have made the cut would be tracked on Saturday & Sunday (just like tournament golf). No need to worry about cut players or how many strokes to add or doing all the math and tracking.

hey Obgibby the PGA Championship has snook up on us...how are we doing it...we should use +/- to make it easier to keep track of our score...I say we still should go with 4 out of 5...if we pick more golfers we will all end up picking the same golfers...cut players have to get worse score than last place finish
I was just stating the new thread when you posted this.
