Whoever gets Bread in the 1st round, give him a beat down for the 4K posters who were not invited

flyingillini · 12-06-09, 09:11 PM

Weak, I deserve to be in this contest.

sickler · 12-06-09, 09:19 PM

What/where are the official rules for this contest? Bread mentioned the same format as the bracket tourneys, but I looked around the contest board and saw conflicting rules for those type contests.

Opening line from SBR used? Stale lines will be available?

These are the only rules shown for our contest:

Contest for guys with 5,000 posts or more only. 50 pt entry fee. 75% payout to first place, 25% to 2nd place. First contest I've put together, so be patient.

Contest Format:Bracket Start Date:Tue, December, 8, 2009 End Date:Fri, January, 15, 2010 Max Members:32 Round Timespan:7 Days Max Round Plays:15 Min Round Plays:10 Bet Range:1 Base Betting:Yes BestBets Required:1 BestBet Multiplier Value:2 Show Pending:No Point Entry Fee:50 Grading Method:Net Units Privacy Mode:Invite Only Sport Leagues Sides ML Totals CFLyesnoyes NBAyesnoyes NFLyesnoyes NHLnoyesyes NCAAByesnoyes NCAAFyesnoyes

You make 10 picks to avoid being disqualified. The max is 15 picks. You have the option of a best bet which is worth 2 units. The rest of the bets are worth 1 unit. All spreads and totals except NHL is ML and totals.

Maybe Bread can open it back up and let in another 32 posters?

No. There is an option to choose a books lines to use for the contest. Looks like General lines are used. Basically The Greeks lines.

flyingillini · 12-06-09, 09:29 PM

It's cool, just got a PM from JJ telling me not to... I am so confused about this contest... Unreal

Bread · 12-07-09, 08:30 AM

Illini we got 32 entries....if I let one more in, we couldn't start the contest til we got 64 entries, which wouldn't ever fill up (due to bracket formats). I'm sorry you didn't get in...I honestly thought you were in a couple days ago when we first talked about it, but didn't know about the error.

Once I get Lou to fix the brackets, this will start tomorrow.

jjgold · 12-07-09, 08:37 AM

I got fukked already, it says I am 0-1 and the fukkin contest did not fukkin start. Bread what type of fukin game are you playing here?? Someone watch this guy every second during contest as I do not trust him.

Mudcat · 12-07-09, 09:16 AM

It's going to be capping mayhem.

sickler · 12-07-09, 09:58 AM

Deuce · 12-07-09, 10:15 AM

Bread you fukk, fix this shit.

Bread · 12-07-09, 10:23 AM

Lou! Help me! Why is the bracket only for 4 people?

jjgold · 12-07-09, 10:52 AM

Bread has no clue what he is doing. This contest will be chaos. Bread this is real shit and for points so get your act together.

jellobiafra · 12-07-09, 11:25 AM

Jj....calm down!

Shark79 · 12-07-09, 11:30 AM

El Pan ... any updates?

jjgold · 12-07-09, 11:42 AM

What the fuk is going on??? I e-mailed Bread 7 times this AM and he never wrote back. Bread I am not 0-1 . How can this guy run the contest when he is drunk half of the time. I want him removed as Admin.

Bread · 12-07-09, 11:47 AM

Lou! Willie! Help me before JJ blows a gasket!

Sounds like you have been demoted to private? JJ, everything goes through the Breadman now! There's a new sheriff in town, and his name isn't Reggie Hammond!

pavyracer · 12-07-09, 11:55 AM

We need to know our opponents soon so we can plan strategy. JJ is a situational capper and will study his opponent before making any picks. He needs to know soon.
