· Maximum of two posts per entry/team, first with any picks from first 3 bowls if any (with denominations), second with all 15 picks (do not forget to carry over any of first 3 if picked). Final picks must be Five 3*, Five 2*, Five 1* plays. NO EDITING OR PICK CHANGES ALLOWED except to replace Cancelled Bowls or Matchup Changes. Deadline for replacement picks will be announced as Cancellations/Matchup Changes happen.
· We will collect the mandatory 16th and final pick for the Championship game beginning on Tuesday January 5th. We will send a PM to each entry / team captain collecting the pick. The final pick is due by Friday January 8th at 11:59PM ET. A tiebreaker of total points will also be collected, see original thread for details.
· No discussion in this thread other than announcing Cancellations/Matchup Changes and announcing deadlines for Replacements, other than that, only pick entries allowed.
· After deadlines for replacement picks for Cancellations/Matchup Changes are announced, if you fail to meet the deadline, pick will be scored as a push (half 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.
