I'm facing the same issue.  Unreal that this sports-focused site had the wrong date for this game, and still hasn't corrected it.   All overs for that game should be scored as wins.  What's going on Covers.com? 

@magicman1642

 PHEW, so glad I only have 4800+ picks with just a winning streak of 9.  Otherwise, I'd think I was the loser! 

@sully1971

 It was fixed, as expected.  Just an odd occurrence. 

Pretty sure they'll fix it at some point, but how was this game's over 7.5 pick graded a loss  BEFORE THE GAME ENDED, when it went over in the 8th inning AND the game is not yet over?

@reg1979

 Thanks for the info.  Their email said it's a card, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's a code/credit.   I emailed them again today, three days after the "will process shortly" email and almost 3 weeks after the win.  Haven't heard back yet.

@reg1979

 I'm not calling a conspiracy theory, but it's been more than 2 weeks since I won $100 Amazon card in a Final 4 contest, and now they're saying

"We do apologize about the delays. We have had delays in receiving our Amazon Gift cards.  We will process your $100 Amazon gift card shortly."

It was a free contest, so I'm willing to be patient.  But everything is relative, so we'll see how quick "shortly" is

@NatoshiSakamoto

 I don't think anyone is "crying" ... just would be better if there was more oversight to enforce the rules.   Then again, like you said, it doesn't seem too profitable, so we shouldn't sweat it too much.  And who knows, maybe Covers says "you get nothing" if the people with multiple accounts wind up in a winners spot.

@NatoshiSakamoto

 Or, have a computer program that will tell you what to do with XX number of accounts.  Just like how DFS sports was mostly taken over by engineering grads, it's not a level playing field.  The rules say 1 entry per person.  But yeah, let them play.  

@CoarseRanger

 Good job pointing that out.  Don't worry about the "snitch" crap ... We're all playing the honor system (Or we SHOULD be).  Moderators should've caught that earlier.  And if that person has those three in the top 50, you can bet that they have at least a handful of other entries.  

Yeah, it's a free site, and we should just enjoy the thrill.  But when people are breaking the rules, they should be banned.

@BFLO66FAN

 agreed. i had the same thought.  most likely, just a drunk newbie complaining about how "unfair" gambling is, but he provided limited (NO) context

@SABERMETRICIAN-

*you're
and yeah, i took the time
you're whining about a team being "added to your streak" with no background or context.  You've made FIVE total picks and you're whining already?  You may want to just leave the site, it's likely to get more frustrating for you

@BFLO66FAN

Shocking .. the moron who complains about basic stuff, whines when a team "blows a lead" is asking a moronic question like "was this 6 years ago?"   Get a friggin clue.  It was related to last month's monthly contest.   If you had a brain, you'd look at the date of the original post (2/11/22) and know that it wasn't 6 years ago.

Hey, if you're looking for a bookie, I know at least one person who has no problem taking money from idiots (you).

@CC95531

 No, you're just not intelligent enough to figure things out ... YESTERDAY'S game was canceled, not today's. 
But .... yeah, keep playing, we'll enjoy your input along the way. 

Yet never a response from Covers about why this is the rule.  We've all been burned by it, even in non-Covid times with MLB rainouts, but we never hear anything about why this is the rule.  If a game is postponed or voided for any reason, we should be allowed to make another pick for that day.  Would love to hear why we can't.

And yes, I know it's a free contest and we can win some nice prizes, but it doesn't seem like it's all that hard to fix this issue to make the loyal customers happy.

@Nohbody_Cares

 You're 100% correct.  That was terrible on my part .... I wasn't wearing my glasses, and I thought Soun99999999999 had it at under 36.5.  Terrible post on my part. 
However, the sentiment was real .... I was rooting for Soun99999999999 more than my pick.   Always rooting for the guys/gals who make it up the leaderboard here

CONGRATS @Soun99999999999 !!! I made my pick this morning of Over 35 before checking your pick.  Was rooting for you to get to 22 than for me to get to 3 (OK, was hoping for 36 for us to both win, but really, wanted you to win).  Great job, helluva run... keep it up and good luck the rest of the way.

@fanofskers

 Not enough sports every day.
Baseball - every day .... NFL - Thu-Sat-Sun-Mon .... NCAAF - Thu-Fri-Sat ... Nothing on Tuesdays & Wednesdays

Once NHL and NBA (and NCAAB) kick in, they'll (hopefully) start it

Same for me.  What gives?
