I think your understanding is wrong. It is just your starting lineup that counts.Each week your top QB, top 2 RBs, top 3 WRs, top TE, top flex (either RB, WR or TE), top PK and top Def/ST will count towards your weekly total. You do not have to select who will play. You will receive the maximum score based on your roster.

Where does it say that? Here's what I find in the rules.
That to me says that includes the weeks 14-16. The only change is that your weekly score of your starters is combined; not all players.

I live to play another week - thanks to Betts, Boldin, Bironas, and the Packer D.

Like jon mx said, the scoring is the same in the finals. The only difference is that finalists total their score over multiple weeks instead of starting over every Sunday.
With a bad performance by Colston, Chris Henry on IR, Moss yet to play, I caught myself checking in on Butler, Britt and Harvin frerquently throughout the day.At least he made some catches this week!my leading receiver this week was Deon Butler

Any chance someone could post an updated ownership % sheet?

So the VJax live owenrship percentage dropped about 5 points (from just under 31% to about 26%). I'll take it, but I was hoping for a little more of a dip. Oh well.

I am one of those.....Not good from a uniqueness perspective, but I like the way they are performing. Should give me two good scores plus my flex score every week.
Another one bites the dust on my roster....luckily I have 2 other kickers. I can't afford anymore loses.165 Hauschka owners just lost one of their K (10% of all those remaining).(me included)

Next you're going to tell me that you have Ochocinco, Mason & Harvin as WR's - sounds like we have similar squads.
No, I have R. Moss, Mason, Nicks, Colston, Meachem.

Since I managed to survive with both #85 and Colston on the roster I figured I had a pretty unique team.
Love the querier...100038 is the only team with MJD, Colston and Ochocinco left, and is also one of only 89 teams with Jamaal Charles. Cutting out the dead weight:
QB - Philip Rivers - 25
RB - Maurice Jones-Drew - 50
RB - Felix Jones - 11
RB - Ahmad Bradshaw - 8
RB - Jamaal Charles - 7
WR - Marques Colston - 28

This is the best I've ever done by far, but with the Turner high ankle sprain I should be going bye-bye soon. Betts and Bush can only carry me so far, and Vernon Davis is finally slowing down. I'm okay with that though, I put in a lot of time with my selections this year and I think it paid off (figuratively). Knowing how many entries there would be, and looking at ADP adjusted towards Dodds' VBD knowing it was FBG subscribers I was going up against, I basically tried to go 70% upside/30% value/foundation where Rodgers and Moss were most of that 30%. With the other 70% I favored lottery ticket/dark horse picks over consensus "safe" upside picks. Also, reading all of the posts in the thread regarding Dodds' FF Index best ball team, I knew going all Philly/Saints/etc. WRs would not make my team very unique, so I only used this strategy in the Dallas backfield behind Barber.

Not sure if it is good to be a Romo owner or not. Having only 55 owners left, means Romo has been very inconsistant. At this stage in the contest, another bad week by Romo can mean the end to many of the remaining Romo owners. With Romo, Sanchez and Leinart as my QB's, I am not too confident I can survive another bad week from Romo. Miles Austin , where have you gone.
My mistake...when I re-read it and it said combined scores, I thought all players, not combined for those weeks....dumb reading comprehension for me. Makes more sense the way they have it, and I like my chances better because of it.

I'm not sure either, but after my experience last year, I wanted to make sure I had at least one potential high scorer that would be somewhat unique, and Romo fits that bill perfectly.We have the same 3 QBs... and just have to hope that when Romo stumbles it coincides with a good game from Sanchez.Leinart is looking unlikely to contribute this year to our contest teams.

True about Romo being unique, but possibly counting on Sanchez having a good game is going against the odds. Sanchez has been horrible for weeks. I think alot comes down to how well Rodgers does. Because Rodgers is on so many rosters, a bad game by him greatly increases my teams chances of moving on. Personally,I am hoping that the majority of the final 250 teams that survive have Rodgers. Because if my team somehow makes the final cut, a cold streak from Rodgers could greatly increase my chances of winning this thing. Unfortuneatly I am running out of players. My worthless picks so far have been J. Davis, J. Galloway, C. Brown, the Edge. Leon Washington is out, Kevin Smith has been horrible. My kicker from Baltimore just got cut. And Matt Leinart wont see action unless Warner gets injuried. Fitz, D. Clark and R. Moss have basically carried my team.

I was feeling better about my chances with Forsett emerging, but losing Brown will probably knock me out. Maybe Parker will rise from the dead... no? Yeah probably not..

65.9%...better than 50/50 I suppose, but not great either. The fact that even the top ranked team cant beat 96% shows how much harder the results are getting to predict.
Ronnie Brown owner here...hopefully Charles can step it up enough. I only have Rice, Bradshaw, Charles, and Bush for RBs since I only picked 6 (Edge was the other).
Ranked 1008 for this week, so hopefully Moss, VJack, and Boldin can put me through since I am the only one with all 3.

Its crunch time now. I hope my big 3 of Fitz, R. Moss and Clark can carry me through. It sucks to get this far and not make the final 250. Two years in a row I made it to the final 500 only to get knocked out in the last cut. Hopefully this year I can atleast make it through to the final 250. Good luck everyone. Game is on.
