pickem issue

[roll tide roll]

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!

When I look at the overall results it just shows the week 2 results...

We get Mulligans.

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.

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.

Fair enough.

We disagree on methodology, but I will be alright.

Remember high school?  6/10 (60%) is fail.

HTH.

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.

You're still not winning...  yet.      

Really it is the only way the computer can work it given that we drop two bad weeks and don't punish for non-picks, except as a lost opportunity.

Why didn't you go 7-3 instead of 6-4?

Well don't worry my neighbors and friends. 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.
RTR!

btw ....
I want to do away with the spread of the points

Me too.  Picking against the spread is tough, just let me pick the winner or the loser...
