Re: Week 1 Sep 9,11,12

Darkangel and Francis, you need to go redo your tie-breakers. For obvious reasons, you can't pick one that somebody else already has.

Mine is corrected to 40..

Re: Week 1 Sep 9,11,12

Donnie, if the following determines the winner, why can't we have the same tie breaker.. Odds of us having the same teams and ties breaker should make this this impossible any way as post would make it the clincher.. Who would want to post second and have the exact match to someone esle ?

(Example: Person A posted first and his win-loss ratio is 12-4. He guessed a total of 40 points scored by both teams for the tie-breaker game. Person B posted after Person A and her win-loss ratio is also 12-4. She guessed a total of 38 points. The actual score of the tie-breaker game was 26 to 13. The total points = 39. Each person's guess is only 1 away from the actual total score. There is a tie. Person A wins the tie because he posted first.)

I don't think the tie breaker should ever be changed.

Because I meant to delete that part of the post :ninja

I don't think having post time be the deciding factor is fair. Just because someone was online when I posted the thread doesn't make their guess "better" than somebody else's.

It should say (and I'll edit the OP) that the closest guess to the actual score without going over will be the winner. So in the example you used, Person B would be the winner.

Its the first week, nothing wrong with cutting people some slack. If anybody is worried about an unfair advantage from others seeing their picks, I strongly encourage the section of the OP titled Alternative Posting or something like that.

The results are updated for yesterday's games. Double-check your posts though and make sure I didn't screw up somewhere. Looks like it's going to be really close and come down to the tie-breaker between several people.

Looks like Prick is going to be hard to beat.

Actually, it's over.

He has a one game lead and everybody that is within a game of him have the same teams as him for Monday Night.

Prick wins Week 1.

 

[darkangel]

Well I was happy that I got 8 out of them. That Dallas game was horrifying!!!

The last play was rough. I couldn't help but laugh at the stupidity of it though. Blatant holding, around his neck

Unless not picking a game counts against him. He bolded both teams in one game.

That lineman's next career move will be Wrestling. Looked like a headlock to me. :24:

:eek Did not notice that... I was just counting the RED teams.

This is going to be interesting.

So... looked at from a GREEN perspective, four teams have 10 wins and all of them have the same picks for Monday night.

So, it'll come down to points.

No it was a damn choke hold!! ! I couldnt believe it!!! Can you imagine what it was like in their locker room after that play?

Yeah, no shit Sherlock.

Just making an observation.
