- System can be used twice per year by each person (players get 2 credits).
- Can only be used for events missed altogether.
- Missed events are compensated at the end of the year.
- Points for missed events awarded based on person's overall average
- To reward people for not missing picks, and to discourage strategic pick-skipping, players with unused credits at end of the year have their lowest 2 pick 'em scores changed to their overall average.


Thoughts? It's more fun when more people play. The system doesn't confer an advantage to anyone, I don't think; just deters people from quitting when they miss a pick and decide they can't win
Sounds good to me.
