Another NFL live betting contest Thursday night (Nov 13)!

[SBR Lou]

PRIZE POOL (Must have Bet Phoenix account)
1) $100
2) $75
3) $50
4) $25

There will be 2 sets of questions:

• 5 before the game, worth 1 point each (plus tiebreaker question)
• 5 at halftime, worth 1 point each

Additionally, there will be "live" questions during commercial breaks. Their value will vary, but be announced.

There is no penalty for incorrect answers.

When a question/set goes up, it will remain up until Justin posts "closed". Any answers after that don't count.

Players cannot edit their answers. If you edit an answer, you are removed from the tournament. You cannot change your answers - the first response counts.

If you want a different format, tell me quickly. As long as it is fun and I get to give out a lot of money, we can try different things.

I had a really cool complex format, but I was afraid it would scare off too many action junkies.

[laxdjock]

I'm down!

[SBR Lou]

Sounds good laxdjock! We will have the exact same format as last time but with 5 questions pre-game instead of 10.

What was the format you were considering?

[THEGREAT30]

I plan to be down again, just make format clear, the last one was cool though, but I'm open.

[MonkeyF0cker]

Perhaps propose both formats and take a poll?

[dwaechte]

I'm game.

Personally I'm all up for the more complex format, but whatever is chosen is fine.

[Casperwaits]

I am there

[SBR Lou]

Should be a great time, original thread updated with rules!

[Chi_archie]

I'm in. Any chance of having the in-game questions separated from the pre-game questions, and have a split prize fund perhaps. I, and a lot of other people judging by that thread, only took part in the pre-game and actually watched the game!

Thanks for the feedback.

We want to experiment with the live picking concept, our goal is to attract all the people who are participating in the standard In-Game-Threads for a couple hours anyway into the free contest to have a good time.

[Poker_Beast]

Sounds good!

[gm2022]

Im in like last week!

[SBR Lou]

Im in like last week!

See you there!

[Justin7]

Just to clarify... There are 2 sets (pregame and halftime), plus live questions. There will not be a set between the 3rd and fourth quarter.

The NFL network has very short commercial breaks - I think they try to squeeze the whole game into 3 hours. As a result, I'm going to try to leave all questions up 60 seconds past the end of the commercial break. This means you can past-post, and we'll pay winners!

[SBR Lou]

Should be a great time. If you're late to the party, no biggie, there'll be a majority of questions asked after the start of the game.

[gm2022]

Will be for the most part like last week?

[SBR Lou]

Will be for the most part like last week?

Yup, only real difference is only 5 questions pre-game instead of 10 like last time. The majority will be won live, so be ready to roll!

I said last week I was in and screwed up, but this week I'll find a way to be at a computer. What time do the pregame questions go online?

Justin will be putting them up when he is online and has finished preparing them, most likely a few hours before game starts to give as many people a shot at answering them.
