LT would you consider doing sides also?

Chi_archie · 08-26-09, 01:07 AM

you can start your own sides contest oda.....

LT Profits · 08-26-09, 01:26 AM

Remember that first game is at 2:10 ET, so don't get shut out.

Also do not forget to go back and put in Cubs total.

No, once you make a pick it gets greyed out and you cannot edit it.

Like this idea..I`ll be playing

LT Profits · 08-26-09, 10:25 AM

The CUBS Total is now out for those that did not pick that game yet.

Squirrel · 08-26-09, 10:41 AM

Question, will I be able to go in and make the picks for the 2 early games and then return later on and do the night games? Or will I get locked out once I submit the first picks?

Chi_archie · 08-26-09, 11:17 AM

i'm not sure about that squirrel I was wondering myself.... but I guess I can't edit picks, once you "lock them in" they are LOCKED or at least I can't figure out how to change them

need some more competitors

DacBietViet · 08-26-09, 11:18 AM

Cool. I'm in. We should do a Winner Takes All Contest next time

DacBietViet · 08-26-09, 11:19 AM

Nevermind, i'll sit out. This is totals only? Lame

Yes, you can come back later. You are supposed to have until start time of each game to make each play, but the Braves game closed 10 minutes early last night. To be safe, try and have games in at least 15 minutes before scheduled starts.

LT Profits · 08-26-09, 01:53 PM

It's another winner-take-all today with only 9 entries.

The next one of these will be Friday, when it should be mostly night games. If the Cubs are home that day, I'll only require 14 plays so that guys have until nighttime to play.

LT Profits · 08-26-09, 01:57 PM

Squirrel,

Can you confirm that the rest of the games are available for selection now that the first game has started. They should be, but in the unlikely event that they are not, you can enter the rest of your card in this thread.

Never mind, I see that you just added new plays in the system.

PureGuava · 08-26-09, 02:55 PM

I registered but was only able to make 13 plays.

Chi_archie · 08-26-09, 03:07 PM

PG, two games had already started.......

if there were only 9 people in this, the winner could offer to give you your 15 points back.... but your joining triggered the tiered system of 60% to the winner, 25% to 2nd and 15% to third...

so it gets a little bit more complicated...

but hey you can win with 13 picks, and If I win any points I'll send some back your way....

look for friday's o/u contest

Squirrel · 08-26-09, 03:16 PM

Yeah, Sorry LT I was about to post that its ok to post the picks at intervals as long as its before gametime

LT Profits · 08-26-09, 06:39 PM

UGH, there should have been no new entries after the first game started (2;10 ET). So by rights. this should be a winner-take-all with 9 entries. There were actually 2 late entries: PureGuava and Hotxswim.

Should we simply turn this into a winner-take-all? Easiest way would be for second and third place finishers to transfer their winnings to winner, and for the winner to then refund the two late guys 15 points each.

Come back Friday you fvck.

jjgold · 08-26-09, 07:45 PM

ok

LT Profits · 08-26-09, 07:59 PM

Since no one responded, we'll allow the two late guys to play with 13, and top 3 will be paid, If the two late guys crack Top 3, points will have to be transferred to them as they will show as DQed in system.

For the record:

First: 99
Second: 41
Third: 25

LT Profits · 08-26-09, 11:55 PM

It looks like a 3-way tie at 10-4-1, but Squirrel has The Nuts (sorry, couldn't resist!) over myself and Enogsiwon.

LT Profits · 08-27-09, 12:24 AM

OK, Thursday we will do a Pick-12 Totals & Run Lines Contest. That way, late entrants have enough night plays to qualify.
