Technically, we covered that by saying that golfers needed to win one match to get a point, but I'll let the powers that be decide. (I'm in the same boat, as one of my golfers is 0-1-1 entering today's match.)

I'm of the mindset that this event doesn't have enough points so I'm on board with giving a point for anyone that's not 0-3.
This might be more persuasive if you didn't currently have a couple of players with a tie, but no wins.

We can't change the rules after the field has been determined, and certainly not two thirds of the way through the first round.

Agree. We should keep them the same as last year, whatever that was. Let's note it for next year's changes.

At the time of posting I didn't realize I did but point taken. It's looking like I'm getting 2 points for the week so I don't really care either way. I've said this 3 years running though that it doesn't make sense to devalue a limited field event by having less total points than every other event.

I don't know where my team ended up in the preseason FL4WL3SS rankings, but every one of them is at least on the board after two weeks. If Jason Day wins a tournament or two, I should be in business.
My team accomplished its first goal of the season by surpassing the number of points @FL4WL3SS will score this year by the end of March.

LOLBOOHOO, I got a top 15 pick for the first time in four years, lucky me.

It's pretty funny that you are actually the worst at this game after all your bluster.

Robert Streb. Hahahahaha.

All what bluster? Besides the first year where I genuinely liked my team, I haven't been bombastic about my team. I hate my team this year, I never said I loved it.

In hindsight, the Streb pick was terrible, but who could blame me for not picking Adam Scott again?

My teams have sucked, no doubt about it, but I've been more unlucky than bad.

Actually, the first year you attempted some false humility and ranked your team #2. The second year you just went ahead and declared your team the best.

Yeah, at least in this one little thing in life, I'm better than you at this. Let me enjoy it.

It looks like I got 3 points for An this week, but he conceded/WD'd on Saturday. I'm not sure how we handle this, I know for normal events any WD is zero points. I don't know if he still got paid for conceding or if it is treated as a stroke play WD and he gets nothing.

A quick note about the spreadsheet. I noticed that one of my golfers (Freddie Jacobsen) is not being counted as scoring points for me. I believe that he's scored points for me before, so I'm, not sure why he didn't register any for me this week.

Not that I had a banner week, but figured I'd point it out in any case. #everypointcounts.

Edit: Oh, and I'm fine with the proposed scoring for this week.
Just want to point out that Freddie Jacobson is still not linked to my team. The point he scored in this tournament (Arnold Palmer Invitational) is not in the spreadsheet. And even though he did not score this week, he is not being listed as my player.

I hate to be a pain, but if we have a close race like last year every point is going to count and it makes sense to get it right at the beginning of the year.

What an incredibly disappointing finish for my team on Sunday. Had 46 points with 5 in the top 10 and can't even pull out a W, let alone make up much ground. I can't get excited about my team this year.

Kudos to Big Mike on the Bryson DeChambeau pick. Looking like one hell of a last round grab.
Thanks, I was so close to pulling the trigger on him a round or two earlier, and really sweated out those last 2 rounds.

Of course so far many of my other picks have been kind of shitty so I need Bryson

I gotta be honest. My team sucks this year. Like, I have no hope. All my picks were terrible and to make matters worse I don't even like rooting for my guys.


Then I looked at the standings. Holy fuck Flawless.
