JJ brought up a subject that I was thinking about earlier today in people claiming winners all the time but not keeping a running record. The "LOCK" word is thrown around loosely on this site and many people have fell victim to tailing a LOCK. Those of us that have been around know who is blowing smoke and who has a decent track record. Newcomers are not so fortunate.
I propose SBR Forum develop a new "lock in your locks" record keeping mechanism. Just like "beat the prick" records and standing are displayed under a post, a person's record on LOCKS could be tallied. If you are bold enough to declare a game can't miss, you put the play in as a lock which will keep a running total of your record that can not be reset. I think this is one way to keep some accountability for people constantly throwing picks out there. Just an idea that obviously could use a lot of tweaking but thought I would put it out there for discussion.
