Going for 19-1 tomorrow night fellas. Even though I'll still lose I'll pop some bubbly

BigDeem5 · 10-21-12, 10:55 PM

I'm 16/19

CollegePro · 10-21-12, 11:00 PM

19/19 so far... what happens when there is tie?? top players split the prize?? they mentioned $25000 prize being split but didn't say anything about weekly $1000 being split.. anyone know??

BigDeem5 · 10-21-12, 11:01 PM

19/19 is pretty stellar

CollegePro · 10-21-12, 11:02 PM

thanks man.. totally forgot about it until I saw this thread and went back to check it... and got it all right so far.. this never happens to me.

Congrats my man. That's sweet. Tie info for the weekly is in the rules. If its 5 people or less they each get 1000 . Over 5 it starts to get divided. Don't quote me but I'm pretty sure.

Last year when prize was 500, I was part of at least a 4-way tie and we each got the full 500

LT Profits · 10-21-12, 11:53 PM

Top weekly prize is $1000 with a max payout per week of $5000. So full amount up to 5-way tie. If 6 or more tie, they evenly divide 5K.

yisman · 10-22-12, 12:34 PM

My best week of the season. 16-3 thus far.

I lost the total on the NE game, the Penn State game (where I wound up actually picking Penn State, but the picks are due to Thursday), and the Bills game.

Won't win me anything, but I should at least see my name in the top 10 for the week. I have Chicago tonight, but I'm sure the vast majority do as well.

JakeLc · 10-22-12, 12:52 PM

The player or players who have the best weekly record will receive a $1,000 Free Play (maximum weekly aggregate $5,000)

according to that it seems like you will get the full 1000 up to a 5-way tie

Not even the top 10
There are people with 19 wins so far and plenty of people with 18 going into tonight. Thats how crazy this week was...guess it was a fairly easy week across the board.

CollegePro · 10-22-12, 02:28 PM

yeah... it was easy week... but this last one I have scares me.. not really scares me but I guess bit worry me.. there is me and one other guy with record of 19/19.. I obviously doesn't know if he has bears or lions... so given that, if he has opposite side of me and he wins, he obviously wins $1000 and I get nothing... so maybe I should put some money down to ensure the profit??

yisman · 10-22-12, 02:35 PM

yeah the winner will have 20 I'm sure.

too many people playing this.

I should've checked myself. I thought since BigDeem was bragging about his week that it might be somewhat close to the top score.

The good news is I'm up to 72 overall. 11 points out of first though. I guess I can try for a top 50 finish for pride, because it won't win me a dime.

remember that it's freeplay, not money

if you have chicago tonight, I'd say to put a little down on Detroit ML.

Congrats on the great week.

I'm showing the top guy with 98 for the race to the superbowl?
I'm currently at 82 for it.. lots of people in the 90's though

Only a 2x rollover on the freeplay if you do win it, so it shouldn't be too bad to get some cash out of it

GOODLUCK!

CollegePro · 10-22-12, 03:15 PM

thanks clover!

Yeah, I'm #72. I didn't mean that's how many points. I said I'm #72 and 11 out of first.

most likely he does have chicago but like you're saying, best to be safe to ensure you don't come up with nothing.

Heritage Insider · 10-22-12, 05:28 PM

Updated Prizes

As was mentioned last week, we wanted to increase the prize amounts for our "Race to the Super Bowl" portion of our contest.

We've added more prizes in addition to the Grand Prize. We'll post the updated prize list to our contest page, but it will be as follows.

2nd Place $2000
3rd Place $1000
4th thru 10th place $500
11th to 25th $100

Make sure to play each week as the year end prizes are based on your 10 best weeks of the season.

Good luck this week!

congrats! I guess you're the only winner this week.

I finished with 17 points.

ngates815 · 10-23-12, 11:08 AM

I heard this heritage contest is pointless, because they'll just scam you out of all the prizes...Piece of shit book.

CollegePro · 10-23-12, 11:14 AM

Scam?? Just got $2000 free play.

cloverfield · 10-23-12, 12:18 PM

Congrats on a great week CP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
20/20 is nothing short of amazing.. considering how some of these games flip flop on a dime.

VERY VERY VERY well played. Iowa totally screwed me and it wasn't even close!!!

Don't believe everything Emily Haines tells you in a PM..especially when s/he's asking you out on a date afterwards!

CollegePro · 10-23-12, 12:22 PM

Thanks clover! Get it this week man!

LT Profits · 10-31-12, 06:21 AM

Just got $1,000 free play from Heritage without knowing why. Checked the contest and I finished in 5-way tie for first this week with 17.

Anyone alive for tonights game? Im in a four way tie for 1st with 17 and have Eagles. Want to hedge but dont know if i will get full 2k fp amount with a possible 4 way tie for 1st. Really wish they would let you see other players picks after they are locked.

you get 1k, and yes you get the full amount if there are 5 or fewer people tied for first

if there are 6 or more, i think they just divide 5k by the amount of people tied, but up to 5, everyone gets 1k
