TLDR; fantasy winner of this weekend will win choice of gift card!

Just wanted to make a quick updated about MXR Fantasy, as we're going through our first Supercross Fantasy season! DT-1 Air Filters and Mika Metals have decided to support us and give out some gift cards. We're starting with this round. We'll be giving the winner of Round 10 (this Saturday) a gift card of their choice between the two companies.

It doesn't matter your current standings in the championship or if you've even played yet. If you win this round, you'll get a free gift card. And if you haven't tried MXR yet, or have never played fantasy, you'll find it easy and fun! We've got an incredibly easy roster system that is quick to setup but still rewards the bros full of smarts.

Probably already covered elsewhere but how do you determine position when there is a tie on points. Seems to happen a lot. Does it then go in order of when their roster was last updated/entered?

This is actually a problem I didn't expect to have. Last year was our first-go at fantasy with Motocross, and we had maybe 80 members so ties were never much of an issue. I didn't think we'd pick up a whole lot more for Supercross. But we've gotten enough to where ties in individual rounds can get crazy sometimes due to roster options.

You're actually exactly right, right now the order is based on roster update dates, and at the time this was something I didn't think about when developing the ranking module. I've been playing around with some solutions for this on a dev server, so far this is what I'm thinking about doing:

-- For individual rounds, let's say 3 people tied for 5th. They would all show as "5th."

-- For season standings, I haven't seen ties happen much in season standings, but tied players would be ordered by their average position. So if you have the better average position out of the person you're tied with, you get the better position.

I'm all ears if you have other ideas!

Thanks!

Would you suggest I add a lot more riders who tend to qualify for the night show but not always the main event? I just kind of assumed that nobody would ever pick those riders, due to how the roster system works.

I try to make sure all main-event-level riders are in the roster lists, I just double-checked and every rider from the Daytona 450 Main Events was in the roster list, though I did find that I did not have Cedric Soubeyras in 250's (From the british AX.) Does anyone know if he's here to stay for this series?

Cedric should be competing in the entire series with Bud Racing.

Those all sound fine to me.

This is the first time I've tried any fantasy league and they add to the excitement of the racing for sure.
