Sounds like you outdid yourself, Jay.
One question (so far):
Contest #7 is a match play pitting the top 64 players. Are these 64 players determined by the first 6 contests. So if you're not one of the top 64 by contest 7 then you can't enter contest 7 ? So some players' best 5 outcomes at the end of the year may only be culled from 7 contests rather than 8.
Correct ?

You are correct Beachbabe. Based on the results leading to Contest 7 - The Match Play Championship - the top 64 Players will qualify to participate. Of course we might get a few qualifying players who don't sign-up to participate which might allow a few of the non-qualifying players to move into the competition.
The Match Play event will be based on seedings similar to the Final Four bracket system.

don't think contest #5 should be a part of this series...mandatory play at a rinky/dinky track....that maybe 5% of the people REALLY betting have ACTUALLY even bet on...
just my 2 cents...

I disagree. Those that don't want to play can always skip that particular contest.

Rinky/dinky track! Hey bud, that is my home track and they've been sponsoring my contests for about 5 years. A fair number of PA members have been introduced to the track over the years and have grown to love it.
It may be a "C" level track but it has a big heart. They put their money where their mouth is with "Cash" and a fair amount of merchandise to boot. I would challenge you to get your "home track" to match little 'ole ASD's support!!!
That aside though, this is the very reason you don't have to play every contest to qualify for the Player of the Year title. If you don't have the time during a particular season, you don't like a contest's concept, you don't like the "team" thing in the P.A.I.H.L., or you simply don't like the track in play, then you can pass that contest. Of course the more you play the better your opportunity to increase your "best 5" point total.
Trotter

I plagiarize all my best ideas Tiger -- you know that! That being said, I would invite you to join me as a scorer for a contest or two.
