    You set up a bracket contest, I don't think that's what you want is it?
    Points Awarded:

    cant call it gave LT Profits 2 Betpoint(s) for this post.

    Other than that, Money Line grading by Wins is perfect. If guys have to pick every single bowl, set minimum and maximum to 39.

    Oh you can't customize the prize payouts either, defaults are in Post #1 of all my weekly contests.

    lt are you talking about the min/max amount of plays?

    also I don't see how I set up the points distribution for winners.

    thanks for you help

    I also just realized there is no way to leave out FCS/Division II/Division III games. I will leave min/max at 39 and guys are allowed to pick those games if they want to and skip some bowls.

    I will open up this contest, as well as the two bowl contests I am running, shortly after 8:00 ET Friday night, as that is kick-off of the last FCS Playoff game that night. As mentioned, FCS/Division II/Division III games are fair game for this contest from Saturday on forward, but you still must make exactly 39 plays total. If you skip the sub-division playoffs and literally play bowl games only, it will be exactly 39 once the Championship Game is set.

    Only 6 entries? Remember this contest closes when the first game starts Saturday, let's at least get to double-digits so that this is not a winner-take-all.

    Didn't invite me, and I'm in the ALL the other contests. Right now the whole system has some sort of bug. All the selections say "Not Available". That is all of your contests.

    You were the most recent to join the regular pool contest with the 30-point buy, you must have joined shortly after invites.

    Anyone missing the 11.00am ET game will have to substitute a sub-division game to get to 39 plays.
