I think it best to have your champion come from the one that has the most wins at the end of the year. If you do not get any wins or losses if you miss a week, then the leader can coast in the last two-three weeks if he has a big lead % wise and not even enter the contest the last 2-3 wks. But if you do not enter, then others will get the wins, and the one that does not enter gets no wins.
