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 winning team, you're considered a loser, please leave ;) 5. Your pick must be in before that particular game starts. 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 there is a day with less than 3 games on the schedule, we skip that day and pick things up the day after. 8. 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. c. If one of the finalists does not make a pick, they are automatically declared as eliminated, regardless of the results of the other finalists pick. If BOTH finalists do not make a pick, they are considered lame and I will hold this against you forever. -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) January 9, 2008 Colorado Avalanche (22-17-3) at Washington Capitals (17-20-5), 7:00 PM Dallas Stars (24-16-4) at Chicago Blackhawks (19-19-4), 8:30 PM Toronto Maple Leafs (16-18-8) at Anaheim Ducks (22-17-6), 10:00 PM #N/A #N/A #N/A #N/A #N/A #N/A #N/A #N/A #N/A #N/A #N/A

Wow. I'll be back in the next round, but just so Rick007 knows what's coming to him --- for some reason I couldn't pick a loser to save my life these days. Well good luck anyway. P.S. I can't believe you picked the Avs! ;)

Chasing history to be the Biggest Loser! That sounds like a TV show or something :-)
