Oh wow 😬 i actually did terrible but still managed to go up a spot or 2 in the overall?

This round must have thrown everyone for a loop. I have done quite poorly under the new budget but it seems many others are feeling it (and those who were maybe struggling under the old system seem to be succeeding more now).

WOW best possible was a SIX rider roster... And Samantha was on it! Local girl woulda got yall some points!

Round winner was also a six rider roster so... Yeah, I guess that one poster was right. We may be essentially PinkBike fantasy now lol

I'll have to adjust to picking likely winners and a couple fill riders now. I thought a 10 rider roster was sensible but now that seems overkill unless there are a ton of upsets I guess? Hmm

I think one big thing that separates Vital from PB fantasy is the juniors.  Although this season Jonty and Aletha / Lena have been so dominant it's tough to justify picking anyone else.

well thats the thing, not that they are NOT worth picking but... for best possible they only picked the elite winners. because when jonty (or aletha) wins so much the value isnt necessarily there. I'm not sure if it "needs" to be the case that the highest priced riders are still picked when they win... at the end of the day it could be an 'easy' choice if that were the case. tho it is a bummer for people who both want to pick the winner and / or want to pick their favorite rider even if they are most expensive.

I still think fantasy is in an ok place. Chances are there is somewhere between the old values and new that is optimal. It's possible we will 'get there' by end of the season
