    One question. I like a fair and friendly game. Any issues with a reminder email or something the night before game time to those that have not put in guesses? Doesn't always needed to be @Summer78, but if noticed by anyone...out tagging in this post?

    More importantly, will anyone have beef if I do it?

    Great idea here, and if you're willing Dave many thanks. Those Thursday night games do sneak up especially.

    If I see it, I'll say something. Just wanted to make sure no one had an issue.

    Not a fan of that idea personally. I'm down for whatever works though.

    Not really a fan of this idea. Even if you make sure the last place player is still making their picks, there's no way to prevent intentional tanking.

    If there aren't an amount of people divisible by 17, we could also take the extra weekly boxes and choose quarterly winners for weeks 1-4, 5-8, 9-12, 13-17.

    True, but last year I was doing do bad I tried to pick all losers, did just as good/bad as I was. But, once so far from first that I can't win, at least there is a reason to still play, and makes dynamics at the end a little more interesting...Just an idea.

    This is partially why I proposed my idea 2 posts above. I think it will help to keep people engaged for the whole season

    The chance to win boxes every week should keep people engaged for the whole season. I'm going to say no box for last place.
