    ________________________________________
    How to join as solo entry: Send 2,500 betpoints in the 1st post of this thread (click the gold coin at the bottom of this post)

    Max solo entries: 1


    How to join as a team
    :
    Teams are permitted to split the cost of entry. Respond to the thread after you have sent your percentage of the team. Prizes will be split by percentage of points sent by each team member (example).

    Max team entries per player: 1


    Official Contest Lines and Entering Picks: The official contest lines will be posted in a separate thread on Wednesday, December 16th, although we will initially post lines on the first 3 bowls only up to the Boca Raton Bowl Tuesday night, Dec 22nd. The remaining 30 pre-Championship Game lines will be posted in that same thread Monday, Dec 21st at approximately 11:00AM ET. The lines will be static and will not change throughout the duration of the contest, and participants will enter their official picks in that thread.

    Those wishing to play any of the first 3 bowls must post ALL plays on any of those games they choose with their denominations (see below) in one post by kick-off of the first bowl Dec 21st at 2:30PM ET. Then after we post the remaining lines Monday, ALL remaining plays (or all 15 plays if you pass on first 4 bowls) must be entered in one post by 3:30PM ET Wednesday, Dec 23rd.


    Contest rules

    • Each entry/team captain picks 15 total sides from lines posted in an official thread on Wednesday, December 16th (first 3 bowls) and Monday, December 21st (last 30 bowls). Lines will not change. Pick denominations will be: Five 3*'s, Five 2*'s, Five 1*'s.
    • All players MUST enter a 16th and final pick on the Championship game. The pick denomination will be 4*. An official PM collecting the 16th pick will be sent Tuesday, January 5th. The final pick is due by Friday January 8th at 11:59PM ET. We will provide the Championship line in the PM.
    • Along with the 16th pick, players must enter the total # of points scored in the Championship to serve as primary tiebreaker. Closest without going over wins. If two or more teams are still tied, the most # of 3* wins is backup tiebreaker. If still tied, prizes split. MAXIMUM TOTAL ALLOWED is 30 points above total that will be provided in PM.
    • Pushes will return half of your bet. For example, if USC (-3) wins by 3, and they were a 2* play, you receive 1 star.

    Please post final picks in the following format:

    3*
    250 California -6.5
    289 Mississippi State -4.5
    239 Memphis +6.5
    237 Iowa State +3.5
    235 Washington State +2.5
    2*
    223 Miami (FL) -6.5
    219 Marshall +17.5
    217 UAB +16.5
    215 Washington -3.5
    213 Florida International +2.5
    1*
    210 Georgia Southern -4.5
    207 Central Michigan +3.5
    202 Charlotte +6.5
    203 Kent State +7.5
    212 Florida Atlantic +3.5

    If you make plays on the first 3 bowls, remember to carry those plays and denominations forward when filling out your 15 picks.


    Special Rule for cancelled bowls or matchup changes: For this season only, you may make REPLACEMENT PLAYS for cancelled games or matchup changes. We will announce deadline for making replacement entries as cancellations or matchup changes happen (usually within 48 hours) and the replacement play would automatically be the same denomination as the original play. If you fail to enter replacement before announced deadline, the play will be treated as a Push.


    This contest will be cancelled if fewer than 24 bowls (excluding Championship Game) are played.

          I think I’m gun-shy this year, or this is my best ever chance to win. I’ll let the magic 8 ball tell me and then decide

                        Asking because it doesn't specifically say but if contest is canceled for less than 24 bowls all points are refunded, correct?


                        This contest will be cancelled if fewer than 24 bowls (excluding Championship Game) are played.

                              In for solo! If anyone wants to split an entry, please PM me, am down. Am willing to take any percentage 50 or higher of the team entry - up to you.

                              Big thanks to SBR for running this again - aside from BTP/Pick 6, this is the best contest you have imo, always fun even if I never really win anything haha, definitely makes the bowls more exciting to sweat! Hopefully doesn't get canceled but if it does, well that's life won't be the first disappointment this year.

                                                          Confirmed. STR sent the whole 2500, but 1K of that was mine as I had previously shipped him those points. I owe him 250 more which will get to him soon. Per PM LT Profits will mark down that STR and I have split entry. thx guys.
