The good news is after you spend a lot of time setting everything up, the YTD performance updating doesn't take nearly as much time. Until there's a merger....
By my count we have 71 players (only counting the posters who finished the sign-up process by listing their 5 stock picks by last night's deadline) and 177 companies picked. I don't guarantee those numbers are accurate but it should be a decent proof check against what you come up with. If you come up with different numbers we can compare notes....

An alternative to the merger stuff is to lock in performance based on the settled price per share on corporate action date. Is that quick and easy to pull up?

That's certainly one way to do it.
Compare your idea to how I handled it last year:
1) I "locked in" the YTD performance of the original stock pick as of the merger completion date.
2) I used that same date to establish the beginning share price of the surviving company.
3) Each update all I had to do was manually enter the current price of the surviving company and any dividends paid as of the date of the update.
4) My spreadsheet then added the original company's YTD % to the surviving company's performance % since the merger completion date giving a combined YTD performance percent.
I realize my way loses any benefit of a difference in the number of shares of the surviving company the shareholder gets or any possible cash consideration which would give a more accurate weighted average return but looking up that much detail for each merger wasn't worth the time, imo.
In 2019 we had 5 companies that got bought all of them in the second half of the year. So each update I manually entered the surviving company's current stock price + any dividends paid which wasn't too much extra time involved.

Just thought it may be easier. If so, it sets up a return that is more accurate being that it was the original pick, and maybe for purposes of rolling the dice on an expected buyout.
With that said... big tobacco can feel free to swoop in and takeover my Cannabis pick with hostility.

I have 71 players and 168 companies so I'm going back through to see what was missed.

Pretty good breadth of picks this year, only 5 with double digit pickers. Should be really interesting.

If you got the same order and overall numbers I'd say you're good to go! Thanks for taking over the updates.
One suggestion, you might want to post everyone's picks for us to proofread just to make sure you have everyone's 5 stocks correct.
