Title: pickem issue Post by: roll tide roll on September 15, 2015, 05:21:00 PM So, week 1, I go 6 - 4.
Then, week 2, I go 6 - 4. When I look at the overall leader board I am in a 5-way tie for 6th place. In sole possession of 5th place is Hannibal Lecter, MD. Dr. Lecter failed to pick 3 of the games from week 1 and yet he received no apparent penalty for not picking. His 3 no-picks should be counted as losses and there should be a 6-way tie for 5th place. Thanks for taking my call. Roll Tide! Title: Re: pickem issue Post by: N.AL-Tider on September 15, 2015, 05:35:37 PM When I look at the overall results it just shows the week 2 results... ???

Title: Re: pickem issue Post by: SUPERCOACH on September 15, 2015, 06:21:47 PM Right now it only shows your best score since we get to drop our 2 lowest scores. Once we get to week 4, it will start combining your 2 best and dropping your 2 worst.

Thanks for taking my call. Roll Tide! If you don't get all of your picks in on time the missing pick is counted as a push. I didn't want to punish folks for not getting their picks in before a Thursday night game, for example. The flip side is that they don't have a chance to get that game correct either. So if you put in all 10 picks, you have more chances to get 7 correct and beat that 6-1 guy. Title: Re: pickem issue Post by: roll tide roll on September 15, 2015, 08:55:49 PM So, week 1, I go 6 - 4.

HTH. Title: Re: pickem issue Post by: KoKoPuf on September 16, 2015, 09:17:12 AM The first week I didn't get my Thursday picks on time but I obviously would have picked the winners. If you don't believe me I can go back and pick them now.

I have the bottom of the totem pole and it is on my broad shoulders. I will not let you fall. I predict a perfect pickem this week of 0-10.
