Apparently the best score on pulp was 305, what I got from the podcast anyways. So most of us aren't too far behind.

Anyone else notice this.

In our group on pulp, it shows my score as 232.

But on the dashboard, it says I got 173?

Week three in the books. Didn't have the weekend I was looking for. Tickle didn't do me any favors - and what the heck was wrong with Kenny?

Nice work by Rider Eh! to take over the lead.

The pulpmx league def. adds some stress to fantasy. I am out of town this weekend and not in cell services and already stressing I wont be able to check qualifying times hahah. Fun though. Never thought I would be cheering so hard for Hayden Melross or Chase Marquier hahah

What's everyone's global championship rank?

I am sitting at 1143rd with a score of 666.

I had a great weekend for 250F's but horrible in 450's with Musquin going out. Honestly I'm just trying for top 5 one of the weekends in pulp for a prize at this point, but I'm only 60 points behind the overall leader. Either way I'm nerding out and spreadsheeting my picks and calculating based on qualifying order and handicap. RMATV I did horrible, got 10 points!

I'm ranked 668 in global in pulp, 743 points. Ranked 271 in championship league.

Oh no, that's been my strategy!

I think it's a tough game since the guys I listen to for advice on the best picks are the same ones setting the handicap. I gave up trying to outsmart them and thought I would just compare handicaps to qualifying times. Doesn't work when Tickle crashes. I also tried for the "lead one lap" bonus but that came out even - got it in the 250s and lost it in the 450s.

I'm 726 global and 708 championship.

Yeah I listen to the pulpmx fantasy as well, but more for entertainment than picks. Oh yeah, I got freezed by Friese in 450's as well. That's why I had a bad week.

I came out even on the lead lap 1 bonus as well. If my global rank drops too much I'm going all in on risk/reward and shooting for top 5 each weekend with those bonuses.

My problem is I spend more time looking at the leaderboard on the screen than the races now! I found the triple crown better for watching the races with the olympic scoring though, watched the leaderboard much less.

I got 4th place overall on PulpMX Fantasy this weekend! I won a set of 100% Racecraft Goggles! I'm now ranked 40th overall. I took some risk and picked Eli Tomac to lead the 1st lap.

Looks like Dobi jumped up big time on RM Fantasy.

I stumbled. Picked McElrath to lead the first lap (he was second, and then led the second lap :crybaby:).

Anyone else finding that their RMATV picks are getting jumbled? Or does it "help you out" if you keep making terrible picks like I have been?
