Is that a bad number or what?? I went to bed last nite it was -7 across the board on SBR odds now -6.5 basically everywhere. I wander if that book actually had that number or is what he did a typo?

Again, your work is appreciated Williams. It is very time consuming I know, but would it be helpful to eliminate all the ones that are 0-1 or 0-2 that most likely will not post another pick??

It would eliminate alot of clutter on the screenshot and help us find the people's records better that or decent and have a track record in progress.

Basically, I wouldn't run tallies for anybody that didn't contribute at least 2-3 picks at a minumum for any rolling 7 day period. Creates clutter.

I assume many on that board that posted a pick that most likely will not do so again. I am sure you know the ones I am talking about better than I do.

Yeah I'm going to have to do something along those lines. However, I'm not just going to delete their records. Instead, I will transfer inactive users' records to a separate file in case they ever come back to post. I don't want people starting 0-3, taking 2 weeks off, and starting fresh

We are 21 games under and $4400 in the hole.

You make a good point! It just sucks for you that many of the 'users' will post 2 or 3 picks and go offer. or 1-2. I don't care how bad someone is or how good someone is, but it would be nice if they had a record that was in progress to help shape opinions.

To me someone that is 6-17 is just as valuable as someone that is 17-6 for obvious reasons.

Keep in mind you can't actually just fade this thread since there are many picks made for each team. I guess you could count each pick as a unit though.
