i think you get one less win than the worst record for the week.

Sorry Gretch, I know it sucks. I woulda reminded you if I'd noticed, but new baby and all, been kinda busy. :couple:

Yes, you'll get one less than the lowest score. It will be dismal this week, but you'll bounce back!!! Like John B., life is so busy that I don't really pay attention to the contest until Sunday.
