When a team forgets to submit pick before game starts that game should automatically remove the highest confidence point value. No pick by fist game 16 confidence points is no longer available and 15 becomes your highest value to select and so on. That way team that misses a game can't score 16 on a game when those that did select may lose that 16 confidence points. Someone who submits all picks on time can earn 136 points yet someone who forgot to do the 1st game can still get 135 points. The penalty for not submitting pick on time should be no 16 point option so the most they could get is 120 for the week. That is how a traditional confidence points pick'em works.
