    Fantasy Folding

    Hi folks,

    just having a think at lunchtime as I often do, and I was thinking that maybe we could do some sort of "fantasy folding" league. Not quite sure how it'd work exactly, but something along the lines of fantasy football but where we get, say 10million points to spend on Folders, and then you get points per every overtake, points for each active day/week in the month etc etc

    Probably be a nightmare to administer, but could be a whole lot of fun if done well.

    If you think as a concept there's any mileage in it, please feed back, and then I'll start looking at it.

    Pros:
    Increase awareness of F@H
    Some fun for people who cannot fold
    Independent of harware capabilities
    More Hexites...

    Cons:
    Setting up scoring methodology
    administering users scores
    administering folders scores
    hosting cost

    Any suggestions as to how this could work, fire them back and I'm sure if we were to come up with a solid enough model, we may even be able to get it made.

    wotchafink?

    but for a lot of folders their output is almost constant, so overtakes are too easy to predict
