    Tourny Question
    What I don't understand is how can the MODS put on this contest, and then not even grade it. That is just poor SBR management. I am very disappointed in this contest, VegasDave does all the brackets and such and CrazyL puts up the lines for the day but neither one of them grade the contest. That to me is just not right, you should grade every matchup if you start the contest. Hell its like we are running the contest our selves with the guys in the contest grading it for SBR! This site is not what it use to be and I'm starting to not be happy around here. Hope they step up and start doing what SBR pays someone to do, hell I can run a contest and grade it and do there duties if they paid me as well. Hell I pick more winners then they do, so a MOD doing there duties and picking winners and bringing people views to the threads, thats a good combination!
    If it seems to good to be true it usually is!!

    I have a natural instinct to exploit market ineffieciencies!!

      where' the bracket Dave......

      I mean I know my NBA tourney wasn't the best in the world. But Sexy, you can admit, at least you knew the rules, the lines were out every MORNING, and every one knew the bracket.

      I agree w/ Sexy, Dave is a bad MOD.

      On a positive note....Thank you MEXICAN STALLION for the hard work you put into grading every match up daily.

      Thanks also to AMBY for grading.

      Maybe we should grade our own matches, I mean I do that anyway, but a second grader always helps too.

          Sammy, VegasDave and the other mods are doing just fine. Regardless of how fast we want things graded or lines put out, it is a free contest. We should be thankful for that.

              No problem Sammy. I don't really mind grading, since sadly I have plenty of free time. I just didn't see anyone grading these, so I thought I would help out. It won't be as bad anyway since the contest is cut in half. Thanks for everyone who does grade their games and helps point out my errors. I know I was making plenty of mistakes early on.

                      I don't understand why I'm getting attacked in this thread.

                      It was my full intention to grade this tournament, and to grade every round at the end of every day. I didn't ask MexicanStallion to help, he started doing it on his own, and I thanked him very graciously.

                      He doesn't mind doing it, so what am I supposed to do, demand that he stops so when I get home from my 9 hours at work I can tack on another hour? If MexicanStallion decides to stop grading because he gets bored of it or is busy one evening, obviously I'm going to step in and start grading it. But considering he is volunteering his efforts and doesn't mind, I don't really know what I'm doing wrong on my end.

                      The contest is getting graded every day in a timely fashion, what exactly is there to complain about? Like I said, I've thanked MS and appreciate what he is doing alot, but he is not obligated or anything. Demanding that he stop would be a lot ruder than thanking him for his contributions in my opinion.

                          I already apologized for that mis-communication Sammy, these things happen. I'm running this thing to the best of my ability and considering that it was a fun and controversy-free first round, I don't quite understand why you feel the need to take so many cheap shots at me.

                                  No need to apologize! And no problems caused at all. Good luck to everyone in the next round!
