volzfan59 Posted September 17, 2017 Posted September 17, 2017 As I'm late joining Bass Resource, I didn't join the group. I play fantasy fishing with B.A.S.S. and will join the B.R. team next season. 1 Quote
Super User Senko lover Posted September 17, 2017 Super User Posted September 17, 2017 Major congratulations to Keith Combs, Dustin Connell, and Brandon Palaniuk on a fantastic year and event! 1 Quote
Super User Senko lover Posted September 18, 2017 Super User Posted September 18, 2017 Edit: It's official! The fantasy results are in. Congrats to alk402 on taking the W and the Circuit City Giftcard! 1 Quote
Super User Gundog Posted September 18, 2017 Super User Posted September 18, 2017 Don't spend all that money at one time...or at all. Quote
OCdockskipper Posted September 18, 2017 Posted September 18, 2017 Congrats to ALK402 once again for winning our group, he finished in 238th out of over 30,000 entrants. We ended up with 3 of us in the top 1000 (myself & Gundog joined ALK), but none of us snagged an event win over the 11 events. Next year I'd love to see a couple of us cash in & get those BassPro gift cards, give some bragging rights to BassResource.. 1 Quote

Super User fishballer06 Posted September 18, 2017 Super User Posted September 18, 2017 It's been a fun season guys. I enjoyed playing along with you all. Congrats to ALK for an amazing season. I'm amazed at how skilled of a group of guessers we have here on BR. I finished in the 95.2 percentile, and I was still 6th in the group. On another note, John Crews killed me this event. He was 21st after day one, 44th after day two, and 47th after day three... All of my other picks finished between 2nd and 20th. 1 Quote
CTBassin860 Posted September 18, 2017 Author Posted September 18, 2017 Congrats ALK! To bad it's over. Looking forward to next season. I also hate to see this thread die. Over 1,000 replies and 25,000 views since January! Hope there's another circuit city gift card for thread of the year! Quote

Next year hopefully we have more. @Bluebasser86 can we get this thread pinned?? Please and thank you if you do. 1 Quote
Super User Senko lover Posted September 18, 2017 Super User Posted September 18, 2017 I had such a fun time doing this with you guys - it not only brought out my competitive side but it was a lot of fun too. I can't freaking wait till next year, and maybe we can cook up some new ideas and prizes for the group as well! 1 hour ago, IndianaFinesse said: Who won the box of seibert jigs? I did. 2 1 Quote
Global Moderator 12poundbass Posted September 18, 2017 Global Moderator Posted September 18, 2017 Maybe we could do a $10-20 buy in (assuming it's not against any rules) winner take all or pay x amount of places. Another idea I had was we take 1 or 2 lures good or bad out of each of our tackle boxes and send them to example: 10th and 20th place at the end of the year. I think that would be kind of a fun idea. Whether we do anything or not I still had fun and I'm looking towards next year as well! 1 Quote

Whether we do anything or not I still had fun and I'm looking towards next year as well! I like the buy in idea. We could purchase 3 different amounts of TW gift cards and pay top 3 or just pay cash. Not sure if we could still use the BR name if we are putting money down. Tjen again "BR Crew" doesn't actually say bass resource. Quote
Super User Senko lover Posted September 18, 2017 Super User Posted September 18, 2017 I know there are several of us who are really serious, but I don't want to scare away anybody from the group if they just want to have a good time. We should create an unofficial elite pool where those who want to can participate in a prize format among ourselves, and those who wish to keep money out of it don't have to pay to play. All in the same group, of course. 2 Quote

Lol you do have a point. You mean to tell me BR doesn't have a boat just outside of U.S. waters just waiting to take our money? 1 Quote

Gift cards would be ok wouldn't it? I'm guessing so since that's what B.A.S.S does. If not I'd be cool with lures. Quote
Super User J Francho Posted September 18, 2017 Super User Posted September 18, 2017 You're going to have to take this off the board. 1 Quote
Global Moderator 12poundbass Posted September 18, 2017 Global Moderator Posted September 18, 2017 We had fun doing it this year. Instead of over complicating things and causing any issues with a place we enjoy visiting and contributing to I say we don't change anything and keep it the same. 1 Quote
Super User fishballer06 Posted September 18, 2017 Super User Posted September 18, 2017 We had 52 members this year play, 28 of which played every tournament. If you want to go complicating it by bringing money into the equation, you're going to have 4-5 guys willing to do that, and you're going to create bad blood between members. So to that, I vote "nah". 1 Quote
Super User J Francho Posted September 18, 2017 Super User Posted September 18, 2017 Just like the fantasy football teams we've had in the past, the bragging rights should be reward enough. 1 Quote
