    I spent 2.5 hours making the spreadsheet myself.. only to find out they did it. Only difference is mine counted losses, and they are just giving points for wins. Mine is updated for the game that just finished too.

    Thanks for the appreciation, guys!

    Good luck to our 78 participants, but I feel bad for "Alfa1234" and "Blacke", wasn't able to submit their picks.

    "In the event that a bowl game is not played due to protest or cancelled due to natural disaster, or there is a match-up change in the scheduled bowl from the below lines, pick will be scored for 0 units on both sides. In the event the time or venue changes but match-up remains the same for any of the posted lines, all picks have action."

    So everyone who had that game (on either side) loses? That's a rather unfortunate thing for anyone who had that game. Rules are rules I guess, but still seems like it'd be a lot more fair in the future for it to be graded as a push for both sides. Just my opinion of course...

In the event the time or venue changes but match-up remains the same for any of the posted lines, all picks have action."
    You've got to be FUGGIN kidding me. That is completely unfair. We made a good faith effort to take a side.

    At least it should be graded at the time of cancellation or , at the very least, let us pick another bowl game.

    I put up, along with my team mate, a lot of points to play this contest.

    This is our 3 star pick and buries us

    Wouldn't a push also be zero points?

    Every pick in this contest is SO crucial, especially 3 stars.

    We should be able to take another remaining game at the very minimum

    I was going to suggest picking another game as well, but that wouldn't really be fair probably to the others in the contest given we might have a lot more information on which to make a pick (if some big injury occurred recently or something) than they had when picking at the very start of the contest.

    While I don't like the rule either, it was stated quite clearly in the original thread so to be fair if anyone had a problem with the rule, they really should have said so at the time, not in the middle of the contest when the rule happened to be working against them (and I say this as someone who this negatively impacts though granted it was only a 1* pick for my team and the pick wasn't exactly looking good at the time the game was cancelled).

    Well, no I believe if a pick of yours ties, then you get half the number of stars that you would have gotten, that is you would get 1.5* for this game.

    Not ideal, but it does seem more fair than giving everyone who had the game 0.

    When you say “0 units” what does that mean? There’s no way you should get no credit for the game.
