C'mon Joe, be flexible.

Makes lines more uniform and is much easier to manage. %'s are gone and replaced with $110 units. This way %'s do not need to be updated (major pain in the behind) and more picks are rewarded. Two players are 60% but one has 40 picks and one has 20 picks. 40 picks is harder and should be rewarded. No one will be eliminated this way for lack of picks. Pick or don't but picking everyday may benefit you.

Hey Joe,

We can still chat in here about the plays, the office pool just makes it easier for DMG and myself not to tally up the plays each day.

Player 1 > 24-16 60% +640 units

Player 2 > 12-8   60% +360 units

Player 1 wins and should because it's harder to get 60% with 40 games than it is with 20 games.

  • Makes the playing field more level for frequent/infrequent pickers
  • Uniforms the lines
  • Easier to manage standings

Up to you guys if you wish to bail the contest. Not going to try and convince you all to stay in the contest. Putting it in the Office Pool frees up time for both myself and DMG from running the contest and the lines are as per people entering them in, not posting bogus line or lines they got the night before but post now..

Are we playing by units or by W/L percentage?  I just made my pick for tonight but I'm a dope and I mistakenly played for 100 units (500 is the max).  No big deal either way, just curious.

The one thing we forget.

OZ, put the time and effort to start this forum. That's the bottom line!

DMG and others stepped up to the plate to keep the daily updates.

If you don't like it then keep your insults to your self and deal with it!

washhead. I think you're mistaken. I don't think it will let you do 500 units. Anyway, percentage is the most time consuming to calc so simply ditched it for units. Basically same thing. Also feel everyday or near everyday pickers should get the leg up.

:D

Pool looks good, just placed bet. 100 was the fixed amount, which I assume is intended. Let me know if not. Is the comments section for all the pools, or is there one specific to our pool?

Aussie, how is that cfb pool going?

Yeah Erich...100 was intended. I believe that forum in the pool is just ours. Good for rickybuckets and hoops and jmoo who tend to 1/2's.

StraightWagers 16-17 48.4% LWLWLW

welcome back hope everyone is healthy and wealthy, lots of good games today with Chi traveling to Dall and the Wings in a much needed win spot and have lost to Chi twice this season but were not fully healthy either time, a porous Chi team on the road spells trouble, i like Dall to find a groove and get a win to the over as i don't see Chi beating them thrice and holding them under 85pts...LA forever on the road off a loss go to face a PHX team that had entire roster in Rio now off a nice home win might be a litle fat before they head on a long road trip i like LA to hammer Phx here
my Contest play is Wings pk em as I think Sims, Skylar and Glory will take advantage of a weak defensive Chi team off a win now on the road with EDD not keeping up after long Olympics and Wings desperate for a W having lost to Chi twice alkready, hard to get the sweeper on the road when the home team is fully healthy
All Out
