The scoring rules for 2011 are still being developed and tweaked.
2010 OFFICIAL SCORING RULES
Final date will be on Wednesday, August 18th, 11:59pm. Eastern.
Scoring will be based on the player/individual/place/etc named on the front of the card. If it is a card of Reyes sliding into home plate that is covered by one of the Molina boys and Reyes is named on the front, you only get points for Reyes.

If the Yankees are your Favorite Team, that is your problem and you must accept any and all penalties for all cards that are not of your favorite player.
I've been looking on ebay and I saw some different inserts:
ReplyDelete*Celestial Stars
*Creatures of Legend, Myth, and Joy
You also forgot to mention printing plates.
ReplyDeleteI think the Celestial Stars cards are in fact the code cards, but don't quote me. They're also one-per-case.
I got a Yankees boxloader/cabinet card. Some crap about them winning a World Series or something. So what does that cost me?
ReplyDeleteGuess I was left out ya filthy animals.
ReplyDeleteHow are we scoring the "This Day in History" Cards, if at all?

Thanks, dayf. You could also look at the 2010 FPs page near the top of the blog.
ReplyDeleteI know some of these have been asked but after 8 packs, here are my questions:
ReplyDeleteCelestial Stars = ? points
CS Fave player = ? points
CS Other FP = ? points
Mini Celestial Stars = ? points
Mini CS Fave = ? points
Mini CS other FP = ? points
CS Yankees = ? points
This Day in History = ? points
TDiH fave = ? points
TDiH other FP = ? points
TDiH Yankees = ? points
Mini National Animals = ? points
Mini Wordsmiths = ? points
Ill let you know what else I find. :-) THANKS!
I figured the faves would be easier if they were on the same page. Easier for me at least.
ReplyDeleteI'm I correct in reading that autos are only worth 5 points while relics are worth 8?
ReplyDeleteWhat about the Saltiest Sailors mini cards?
ReplyDeleteNot that it will matter for me, but why are autos worth less than relics when they are tougher to pull?
ReplyDeleteWhy are N43's worth less than cabinet cards? They're a tougher pull.
ReplyDeleteI pulled a Saltiest Sailors card too, so I'm curious about those too.
ReplyDeleteI have a Negro League auto. Would that be a +2 or a multiplier (a la Favorite player list)?
ReplyDeleteAlso, just for clarification, Yankee base cards are -1 and any yankee mini's are -1, but technically the rules don't state that inserts (Highlight sketch and TDIH) are also -1.
Wait a minute, I've been subtracting 1 point for all the Yankee This Day in History cards that I've been pulling. Should I have not been doing that?
ReplyDeleteSlangon, I've been playing it safe and doing it to, but since the rules technically only say base cards and minis, I figured I'd ask.
ReplyDeleteI would think that the Saltiest Sailors should be worth more than the Creatures of Legend, Myth and Joy.
ReplyDeleteSaltiest Sailors are like one per case of cases (1:1,000 packs). Check out their prices (and rarity) on eBay!
The Notorious B.U.D. - Yeah, one might think that. Not here, not this time. Gint-A-Cuffs and eBay don't mix.
ReplyDeleteBut thanks for the suggestion.
