Re: NFL Playoff Contest?

I understand your logic. I think you are right. If I'd wanted it to be the way I said, we would have needed to do individual picks for each game.

Can we agree instead that the brackets only apply when going for the second round? I.E. if you picked Baltimore to win in the divisional round against KC, and then in the championship round, you would lose the 2 points for the divisional round you would otherwise have gotten, but still get the 4 points for the championship round if they won? That seems to be a fair compromise.

Compromises are always best, and if everyone can agree to that, i'm cool with it.

2-3 was the entry fee. I never did say whether they should be sent to me to divide or just to the prize winners. I think it's easier and cheaper (shipping to one place instead of two) to have them all sent to me and I will send out to the winners. I'm sending a PM out to everyone with my address today.

Works for me.... should we go ahead & send these, or are we waiting for the contest to end ?

Re: NFL Playoff Contest?

I think I'm seeing my chances of winning this thing go down the drain....I've got the Ravens winning the whole thing.

Indy - 12
Baltimore - 6

Under 2 minutes and driving.....DAMMIT!!!!!!!

At least you're half right. I'll get my end out tomorrow. Sorry for the delay.

Re: NFL Playoff Contest?

Updated scores after this weekend. No-one had a winner in the wrong spot, so no issue there.

Erratum - 6
PitmanGeek - 5
Boonedoggle - 8
OB1 Stogie - 7
Coach - 5
Bigd417 - 8
Malik23 - 6
Moose14 - 6
ResIpsa - 8
12stones - 7

Still a very tight competition.
