Oooh that's pretty good too.
I would also be for the idea of inverting our field based on points and have last place go first to pick, next to last pick second, etc. And no one can have the same winner pick. Might not be as good to pick all 4 that I mentioned if we do it that way, but it could be fun.

We have a special competition to match this weekend's All-Star festivities!
Instead of making your picks the usual way, you will be tasked with picking a driver for each of these four categories: All-Star Winner, Showdown Winner, Showdown Runner-Up, and Fan Vote Winner. For each one you get correct, you will receive credit for a pick win--this means bonus points for the Chase are at stake! For the record, a round win counts as 2 bonus points, and a pick win counts as 1. So you can earn a maximum of 4 points this weekend.
A final thing to note is that once an All-Star Winner has been picked, he may not be picked by another player. Showdown and Fan Vote drivers may match, but the All-Star eligible drivers are first-come, first-serve. So be sure to get your picks in quickly.
I'd appreciate it if you format your post in this way.

By the way, there were some last-minute additions to the Showdown entry list. The list above have been changed to match, so you may want to consider editing your picks.

Just FYI, your "Showdown P2" will be the winner of segment 2. Just saw the new rule that each segment's winner will transfer in, not P1 & P2 like before.
@kane: Larsonator already picked Jimmie.
All-Star Winner: Kasey Kahne Showdown Winner 1: Martin Truex Jr. Showdown Winner 2: Kyle Larson Fan Vote: Danica Patrick (but only because Truex and Larson will win a Showdown segment)

It was just announced that Danica Patrick has won the Fan Vote, thus being eligible to compete in the All-Star tomorrow night. Congrats to all that picked her; a race win will be added to each of your points. EDIT: Both randomdude and Kane got their Segment 2 winners correct when Clint Bowyer finished on top of the leaderboard. Nobody picked Greg Biffle to win the first segment. Here's a look at the current points, with All-Star bonuses included. EDIT 2: Nobody picked Hamlin to win the All-Star Race last night, so the points below are our final results from this weekend. Thanks to everyone for participating! We'll be back to our usual format next week for the Coke 600. POINTS (after 11/36 races)
