1. If you do
not pick a team for the first day of the contest, you can't join midway
through, you'll have to wait
for the next game to start.Look for the word *NEW* in the thread
title.
2. Anyone can
join, just pick which team you think will lose, you cant pick that team again
for 2 weeks.
3. When a new
game starts your prior picks are erased and you can choose from any of the
teams again.
4. Once you
pick a winner, you're considered a loser, please leave ;)
5.
Your pick must be in before that particular game starts, you may change your
pick as long as your original
picks game hasn't started yet.
6. If you do
not submit a pick for a given day, it will be counted as a loss, errr, a win,
and you will be eliminated.
7.If your game gets rained out, you will be
allowed to change your pick to a game that hasn't started yet.
Otherwise, a rainout is as good as a
win, meaning, you're out!
8. If there
is a day with less than 3 games on the schedule, we skip that day and pick
things up the day after.
9. Once we get
to the final 2 players, a couple of new rules are thrown in…
a. Your pick cannot be posted more than
24 hours before that game starts.
b. The two finalists cannot have the same
picks, first come first serve.
-Tiebreaker
-Amongst the
teams you've picked, sum up their losses on the season.That is how you get
your tiebreaker number.The lower the better, it rewards you for
picking better teams and staying away
from the bad teams.If there is ever a day where everyone picks
a winner, the tiebreaker will eliminate
every remaining player who doesn't
have the lowest number (there may still be 2 or more people with
identical tiebreakers, so they'd keep
playing another day)
