        Just opened account at Legendz.

        I keep getting my deposits denied.

        How can I get in the contest if I can't fund my account?

          No, the only exemptions for that would be those posters who signed up through those sponsors for previous SBR contests and have not yet funded their accounts.

          So I would keep checking the list to make sure you have an account at each one, as we're requiring a new account to be able to participate here.

              Just make sure you sign up through the SBR contests site, post up at one of the sponsoring sportsbooks and then you're good to go. You'll be contacted if there's any problems with your information etc.

                Which deposit methods are getting denied bud, I presume credit card? I'm sure Legendz live chat will assist you on a successful method to get funds loaded.

                    You'll only hear from SBR if there's a problem with your registration, since you followed the SBR contests steps and signed up/deposited properly, you're good to go bud. Good luck.

                        Well, if someone hypothetically has accounts at every single sportsbook offered for this contest, then unfortunately they wouldn't meet the terms and would have to sit this one out. I expect that % of posters to be a very small minority though. I can understand it'd be frustrating but then again this is just one of many contests we offer and there'll be other things you could enjoy here in the future.

                          To be honest, even though I fully support the general idea of this years contest, even I'm a little disappointed that SBR wouldn't make an exception for those who prove they have accounts at all of the BTP sponsors.

                                Most books won't allow or appreciate this practice, so no that wouldn't be a feasible option.

                                    intertops.

                                    this books looks shady.

                                    I've bet at 3 books in 11 years.

                                    I'm weary to even send $100 to joints.

                                          Betjamaica is 100% the best bet you talk to chat and ask for the 100 deposit 100 fp they give it to you. If you deposit over 100 you dont get the 100 fp a buddy of mine made that mistake

                                            Right now that isn't in the cards for this year. What do the rest of you guys feel about it? When the weeks become more meaningful points wise, people look to gain competitive advantages with that info so in a sense I think it takes away from the fun aspect?

                                              I'd like to see the totals bet, even if not the specific.

                                              I.e. 200 on +8.5, 80 on -8.5 was useful info

                                                  this books looks shady.

                                                  I've bet at 3 books in 11 years.

                                                  I'm weary to even send $100 to joints.
                                                  A co worker of mine has been with intertops for years. He hasn"t been stiffed yet.

                                                    I.e. 200 on +8.5, 80 on -8.5 was useful info
                                                    That's a very good suggestion, we'll kick around the idea of "consensus" picks or something similar. Thank you Santo.

When the weeks become more meaningful points wise, people look to gain competitive advantages with that info so in a sense I think it takes away from the fun aspect?
                                                      I think taking away the point board is a great change for that exact, it can be used for an edge. Good move

                                                          Oh, I've completely forgotton about this one.

                                                          Any chance of still getting in this week, if I'll do my deposit early tomorrow?

                                                            where was this information about the "grandfather" clause? I saw nothing but denials in the first 120+ posts of this thread in that regard, so gave up.

                                                            Is this mentioned in a separate thread? thanks!

                                                              Yeah it was announced on the forum and talked about here and there. A number of people were able to get grandfathered in.

                                                                thanks mudcat.

                                                                I think its bush league that this was only announced right before the season, after weeks if not months of complaining.

                                                                Would it have been so difficult to send a PM to the rest of prior participants to get in on this?

                                                                Also - to deny me after making a deposit due to a technicality given this is absolutely ridiculous.

                                                                Clearly whoever is making the decisions is only focused on the bottom line in the short term, as decisions like this will keep people like me away from the forum for good.
